Another Randy Pitchford Interview

Posted by NoToRiOuS at 04:58 1/5/2002.

This time it's Armchair Empire who have interviewed the top dog at Gearbox Software. The interview is very detailed and concentrates on all Gearbox titles including CS:CZ.

Has Valve let you in on what’s happening with Half-Life 2 or Team Fortress 2? (Or is this a "no comment, wait for E3" kind of question?)

I think the relationship between Valve and Gearbox works because we’ve managed to build up a level of trust with each other. For the sake of trust, information about what Valve is doing will have to come from Valve.

What stage is Counter-Strike: Condition Zero at in the development cycle? How are things working out? Any setbacks?

We’re pretty far along. I’m very excited about it. As with any project, there have been interesting challenges, but part of what makes game development so rewarding is overcoming those challenges
