Todd McFarlane and Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling fielded media interviews today from the McFarlane Companies corporate headquarters located in Tempe, Ariz. Media present included Phoenix-based radio, newspaper and magazines and Sirius Satellite Radio host Scott Ferrell.

Schilling is in town this weekend to play his former team, the Arizona Diamondbacks. He's passionate about video games, and took the opportunity to get the word out about his new gaming company, 38 Studios. McFarlane has been contracted to provide the creative direction for the company.

Re: Mcfarlane And Schilling Host Press Conference For 38 Studios

Bob's working the con circuit right now... but don't forget about Bob These two are such hams and I mean that in a good way.

Watching this whole thing though, I'm amazed at the way this business is coming together. There are three people coming together - with their heads solidly in place. They have the capital to make a go of the business and to let it be a money sink for 4 years (good write off ) But at the same time, this leeway removes the pressure that other companies have had to deal with

They get complete creative control, they get their choice of publishers (keep it in house please! You guys are smart enough to figure out how to make it work. Keep it in house, get your own QA staff (and GET A QA STAFF *mumbles*), hire some *real people* to do your CS and in game support and keep it in house), and THEY get to decide when it is ready... Sure - the public may want it sooner, but if THEY are not comfortable with it, they can say no.... this please me

*sigh* off to work - but looking at the business side from a very high view, I'm optimistic

And wanting good ingame support/CS? Definately! I'm so there. Let us know what cons Bob will be at. I'd love to go, if possible.

At this point, the only thing I'm aware of is that there will most likely be a book signing tour come October for the release of the new Drizzt book The Orc King: Transitions Book 1.

I'm not aware of any current events that he is attending.

Re: Mcfarlane And Schilling Host Press Conference For 38 Studios

Don't get me wrong, I don't have access to his schedule lol But there's been no announcements, and I've not gotten any emails from his site Admin.

Chances are, he'll be at GenCon again this year for the Secrets of the Realms event.
