Random images from ATG...

So many stories to tell about the good'ol "Advanced Technology Group." And tonight I will share none of them. Instead, here's a few (horrible quality) shots of some random times from a company that no longer exists.

Ever wonder what happens when there is one, and only one impossible system-level audio bug that is keeping a multi-million dollar game from submitting? The answer is in this picture, where the one programmer with the expertise works tirelessly at his computer, while half a dozen high-powered engineers and production staff literally sit behind him to make him feel uncomfortable.

Not another one, you say! Actually, this is sort of the "good" antithesis of the previous image, where one senior engineer is giving a lesson to some new guys on the intricacies of profiling on 360 versus PS3.

A shot of the "dock", our open-air programmer workplace "funtacular." For those wondering, those pictures of teen sensation "Cody" and the gang are mine...I inherited them from our previous tech director. I, of course, actually pasted those on his wall back when that was his desk...which I later inherited. Karma.


Tip to future interns: Don't go on vacation for a week, or else this will be what your desk will look like when you return.

Finally, a random picture from a work lunch, where the gang discovered the World's largest piece of Indian food.
