Huh, maybe he's just moving his hand OR MAYBE IT'S A PHOTOSHOP.
He's holding a cigarette, right? Or is that some kinda crazy illusion?
As a pale nerd, I can say that I want to punch the hell out of his smug pale nerd face.
Here's an idea for your Ivan's Secrets Mod JLea as a possible easter egg mission.
Assassinate David Prassel as he attempts cross the Aral Sea with a suitcase of 20,000 dollars

Make sure there is a dinosaur and a Master Chief figurine in the boat as well.
[QUOTE=Penis Colada;28594883]I bet all of those threads have like 0-3 replies each[/QUOTE]
You know, except for the ones with more than one page.
Anyways like everyone else has been saying if this is true that's a pretty massive dickmove.
Heh on moddb the orion: source page has one comment about it and nothing on it on the orion: prelude page. Then there's one thread on it on the official forums.
I'm trying to reason though, why would someone just shoot himself in the foot for $20,000? That really doesn't make sense. Of course people don't make sense all the time either but its kind of strange. I'll have to stay neutral until I read more/more proof comes out.

sorry. no saving that.
Hey, Dave! I've got your back.
These guys don't know about how the industry works. That's too bad for them! I'm getting kind of fed up about seeing you guys in the negative spotlight. Maybe you should hire me to be your public relations expert so we can get this situation resolved so you can take credit for all of my efforts.
Send me an email!

I think you only needed to bold "inadequate decisions" there.
[QUOTE=RocketRunner;28613133]I think you only needed to bold "inadequate decisions" there.[/QUOTE]
Of course, it's not like they haven't announced a set release date yet beyond "TBD 2011" or anything.

They had a deadline for a demonstration client for GDC, which recently ended. Missing one deadline when you're doing 90% of the work in your section is not a good reason to dump someone, though. Hell, I doubt he even missed the deadline, honestly.

This is exactly what I mean. Even with a GDC and a PAX around the corner, I'm sure they still have it complete enough to show off (which is apparently true, despite, ironically, some of the team being fired beforehand). And firing someone who's carried a lot of the workload because they're a bit slow is inexcusable, you gotta schedule around your development, not the other way around. If Valve followed this guy's philosophy, there'd be no Valve.

Look at his shirt and how much crap is on it. Yeah look closely, it looks like white fluff.
I think that's just the shirt fabric.

Well then its a horrible fabric.
Hey, now [b]you[/b] guys are acting like retards
hurf durf ugly face ugly shirt ugly fabric ugly everything
I went on his YouTube channel last night (DPraz34), and there were several comments there saying that he was a joke, and even criticizing the game as well (based on the footage provided). I went on just now, to see all of those removed (except for two comments backing him up).
This guy is obviously trying to cover something up.
As of now, I don't like him. There's something fishy about him, and I know for a fact that Sn1pe is trustworthy.

From what I can tell, he's trying to remove any negative comments about his game, because he believes it to be perfect.
Someone should steal the money from him and give it to the people he fired.

Don't really see anything wrong with his looks, who cares about what shirt he wears. He is still quite a dickwad though.
You guys should post this in general games discussion or In the news or something. More people need to know about this.

He looks like a douche to me, but the glasses are kind of a gray area that I can take either way. He probably only looks [i]slightly[/i] like a douche.
