As seen truncated in the most recent Game Developer magazine, and interestingly related to our discussions on in seminar, Gama Sutra has published the full interview of Hirokazu Yasuhara of Namco Bandai Games America. He has done design on a wide variety of successful and well-received games, including Sonicand Jak & Daxter. In this interview he talks about exactly how he approaches game design, which isn't far from the types of experience design we were discussing on Wednesday evening. This is really a wide-reaching interview that is worth a gander if you're at all interested in this type of design. He has been and is currently working at Naughty Dog.
