Lionhead Community : Game talent 'lured abroad'

Game talent 'lured abroad'

Published Wednesday, January 21, 2009 1:47 PM by Sam

Over on BBC24 you can find a short item about game development and animation. "The computer games industry in southern England, which is booming despite the downturn, has warned that home grown talent is being lured abroad."

There is also a short appearance (click link) from Lionhead Studios, plus some desks and monitors you might recognize from the Video Diaries...

It's an opportunity to not only travel, but get paid for it. That's a tough nut to crack. You guys at Lionhead better take some vacations! LOL 2. Money. Who doesn't want more? Make the benefits of a workplace outweigh the possibility of more money in another environment and people will think twice before leaving a fine job AND starting work in another country. Just my thoughts. January 21, 2009 9:09 AM
