Title: David Jaffe - Great man!

Bonus round (http://www.gametrailers.com/bonusround.php)

I hadn't heard of him before I saw these two episodes of bonus round, but I've really come to admire him! The way he says that he want to make the games and do the things that make him happy, and not just go with the flow to make money is really admiring in my eyes!

Is that the fella involved with God of War 1 and 2? I've definetely heard his name a fair few times in the magazines. (Alright then, READ his name, picky bastards)

Calling All Cars! looks cool. It's funny, the other day I found an amateur game demo called Perfectus Volatus (http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/371439) on newgrounds, and it reminded me very much of the classic Nitro (http://www.mobygames.com/game/amiga/nitro) for Amiga, that I loved to play back then. So naturally I gave encouraging critique and I'm hoping they will develop it more. Calling All Cars! seems to have some of the the same feel to it. Too bad I don't have a PS3.

What Jaffe says is not extraordinary, it's what most independent developers believe, but its always nice to hear it from an accomplished developer. Fun how he breaks out of the big time game development career race and decides to develop a more fun racing game with smaller cars. :)

Yup, what Jaffe says, its nice, but there is also a possibility that this is a trick to expand market  :-\
