‘Deus Ex’ Creator Starting His Own Gaming Academy

Warren Spector will lead college program for aspiring game-development leaders.

In the fall of 2014, a rare opportunity will be given to 20 of the most promising video game developers in the world. That’s when a chosen few will begin a yearlong program at the University of Texas at Austin, where they will study under some of the gaming industry’s most successful executives.

At the new Denius-Sams Gaming Academy, the goal is not merely to train great video game developers. The idea is to train the next generation of video game development team leaders, ready to succeed in an industry whose business models are undergoing rapid change.

Thank you for making deus ex

Epic Mickey has such a great potential to be a great game but the lack of creativity and bad decisions held it back dearly! how can one be so unimaginative in a universe full of imagination? I'm utterly disappointed still but let's just wish him to do well with whatever he do next.

Yeah, show the world how to make more Epic Mickeys.

Or maybe on a second though...
