When Colin Bundschu first started at Rockstar Games in November of 2014, he says his new colleagues offered a warning: Don’t cross Jeronimo Barrera. Barrera, the vice president of product development, would often fly in from New York to visit Rockstar’s offices in Carlsbad, California, where they were all working on the Western game Red Dead Redemption 2. Bundschu was told to be cautious when Barrera came to town. Mind how you talk to him, multiple coworkers and managers said. Barrera, one of Rockstar’s top executives, had a reputation for screaming at people, and there were rumors that he had shouted at staff who’d rubbed him the wrong way, telling them they were fired.
An independent UK developer says it’s been forced to announce and postpone its game on the same day, and lay off more than half of its staff, due to the sharp downturn in investment in the games industry.
The armadillo returns.
I personally do remember Infogrames in the years prior to merger. They really did have a portfolio that stuck out and I enjoyed. I wonder what value they see in reviving it now though?
The good old days of Driver and Stuntman. Unfortunately both games are long gone.
Hopefully this gets Embracer group back on track
Management should not be partying with staff, such an easy solution. If you are the employee you say I’ve got a sick aunt I care for every day and can’t go out. Give little details of your personal life.
As a manager you need your own friends, not staff after hours.
If you want NUTS 🥜 grab a can of Planters!
If this happened, I feel for the guy.
But from a legal perspective - it is 100% he said-he said. No one corroborated this guys story. Even the people who were there with him, no one confirmed seeing anything.
All the other stuff about the guy being a nightmare prick boss, that's all irrelevant to what happened. Does nothing to prove some kind of sexual assault occurred.
What a time we live in where dudes are groping dudes
Everybody and there mama has a sob story nowadays. Lmao!
