Ben Judd Interview

Judd and Plenty- An Interview With Capcom's Ben Judd on Crispy Gamer talks
with Capcom's Ben Judd, Producer on Bionic Commando, talking about the
project, digital distribution, and more. An interesting aspect of his life he
mentions is dealing with the different approach to game development in Japan and
the US: "[This is] the biggest problem that I face right now: I'm supported by
the Japanese side. But in order to get the game sold, I need to market it ... to
U.S. gamers. Right now, the thing that U.S. gamers seem to respond to is a
community approach. They like to connect, to be a part of the process. It's 180
degrees different from the Japanese approach, where they censor information;
they lock it down, and keep it away from the public. So I often find myself in a
place where I let too much information get out. And I find myself getting in
trouble for it."
