Ken Lobb a clown?

Anyone else see the interview. Downloaded it last night. Interviews with developers/publishers are probably my favorite magazine feature. I just love hearing it from the horses mouth. This guy though, seemed like a big kid. He was not articulate. He exaggerated a lot, which made me take his predictions about Conker, Perfect Dark, and other upcoming games with a grain of salt.

 

I guess I was just dissappointed. Maybe he would have came off better on paper?

I personally liked his enthusiasm. He came off like a person who enjoys playing games which is always important when you're taking care of developers like Rare and Lionhead. You can tell he has a huge affinity for racing games (especially Gotham).

 

I do agree he seemed a little over-excited about some of the titles mentioned but Ken has always been a big fan of Rares since back in the Nintendo days so its not too suprising. His excitement for Fable was infectious . I was more disappointed to hear he wasn't looking forward to any up and coming games on a system other than on the Xbox. I know you work for MS now Ken but there must be something that tickles your fancy on the other platforms available.

That is what I mean. He came off as a fanboy, and so I couldn't take what he said to seriously. Ed Fries seemed a lot more down to earth, I really liked his interviews.
