Oblivion Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Hey Rob,you have the 2 things I wanted most in life. 1) Go around the world and visit all themeparks 2) Make videogames .... that's my perfect dreamworld.... :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I know you didn't have anything to do with CoD 2 (or at least not much since I didn't see your name credited) but I was wondering, is it possible for the PC to match the look of the Xbox in CoD2? Because..... I compare the 2, and the xbox just looks so more crisps, and clear and bright, then what it does on my computer. So if you have any insight, that'd be helpful. I'm running it on a 2.4 ghz P4, with 768 mb memory. And a Radeon x700 Pro 256mb. Hopefully you can give me your insight on it. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastercraze2005 Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Hey Robb, why is it on IMDB you're not credited for Call Of Duty: Finest Hour? I just bought the game for gamecube about 3 weeks ago. (Don't laugh) It says special thanks to blah blah blah and then comes .......Robb Alvey.

V2-dude Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 From an article about Big Red One in issue #145 of Game Informer: nineteen-year old kids didn't talk like they do in most other games. You know how you talked when you were 18 or 19. You f***ked around with your freinds and made smartass comments, and that's what we're trying to bring to this. Yup, sounds like Robb to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 ^ Funny story behind that article. During that day our Creative Director was swearing up a storm. I didn't say too much, but one of the few lines I did say got quoted. And he was all "Dammit, I was saying swearing left and right and it did get in, and you say like TWO things and get f**k quoted!" --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using proper grammar will allow you to eventually get a good job that might get you "all that money" you'll need to travel around the world.

robbalvey Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 ^ No, I'm not a game designer. Did you read the thread or my bio that I linked to? And yes, that's how we get "all that money" I do have a FULL TIME JOB, something that many people have. And it's more about how we spend our money, or should I say "don't" spend our money on certain things that allows us to travel like we do. Again, READ the thread....it will answer your question. --Robb "It's not about the money you make, it's about how you choose to spend it."

SharkTums Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 ^BEST POST IN THE THREAD!!! Seriously though, the website has really taken over our lives. At the moment we each have 2 Full Time Jobs. Our 'normal' jobs, and the website! Robb and I each put in at least a 9-10 hours (including drive time) at our normal jobs, and then another 6-8 on the site EVERY DAY!!! It's pretty overwhelming at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
