Ragnar Tornquist is respected as one of the best storytellers in today's Game industry. He's done work on Anarchy: Online, Dreamfall, and upcoming MMO The Secret World. Rock, Paper, Shotgun has a lengthy three-part interview with Tornquist about how good stories are crafted , how they interact with other aspects of the games , and what his preferences are for building a compelling character . "We had all these characters who were on a journey of faith, and we said how can we ensure that this theme is carried through, and have a clear view of how their journeys happen. So we said, every single major character had to fit into this model. Everybody starts out at the top. Faith can be anything — it can be religion, it can be a belief in yourself, in your abilities, in the work you do. As we face challenge, there's a process where we have loss of faith. It can be a minor thing: thinking one day, 'God, I suck at what I do. I can't do this.' And a lot of people after that point turn themselves around, face those problems, challenge them and they conquer them, and they say, 'Screw that, I am good at what I do.' I think most happy people live in this loop." Read more of this story at Slashdot. ...

by: Randy Kalista NEWS - Activision wrangled the Quantum of Solace Bond movie stars into the Video Game recording booth:  Daniel Craig, Judi Dench, Mathieu Amalric, and Olga Kurylenko will all be fully voice featured in the upcoming Game that's built on the Call of Duty 4 : Modern Warfare Game engine.  Interestingly, the awesome Judi Dench (who plays the character M in the films) is the only one with a strong background in voice acting, with plenty of movie narration credits to her name, as well as previous Video Game work in GoldenEye: Rogue Agent , James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing , and The World Is Not Enough .  Comparatively, the other actors are soundbooth virgins, since I also don't think Olga Kurylenko's role in the Hitman movie counts.  Here's a couple videos of Activision's high tech character-likeness mapping procedures.
