“Hardware-wise, it was all about Project Natal. It’s hard to really understand it unless you use it, and it remains to be seen what you can do with it, but I think it’ll be a huge device. We developed No More Heroes with the Wii remote in mind, but now I want to think [...]

“They (Activision) said to me, Flash, we want to come up with a game but there’s no way possible we could pull this off without you… we want to do it in such a way that the gamer is DJing the game. And then he says to me, ‘We are the inventors of Guitar [...]

- better AI this time around
