Interview with Brian Gomez:
Brian Gomez has been in game development for ten years, starting with the unreleased but widely-pirated PlayStation fighter Thrill Kill. Since then, he has worked on a number of original and licensed game properties, including Full Spectrum Warrior, State of Emergency, and Brave: The Search for Spirit Dancer.

After nearly five years in Scotland (as a designer, then Creative Director for VIS Entertainment plc) he returned to his native Los Angeles. In 2004 he left Pandemic Studios to form an IP creation, management and production company, Alchemic Productions. Alchemic’s first major project, Clive Barker’s Jericho, was released in October 2007 by Codemasters. Jericho is the first creative collaboration between Brian Gomez and horror author Clive Barker.

Gomez has recently signed on as Design Director with Vatra Games in the Czech Republic, working on the next installment of Silent Hill.

With the addition of Refer-a-friend (I call it Refer-A-Fen) and bind-on-account gear I’ve gotten one of every class to at least 60+ or so. I’m also the current guild leader of The Followers of Bob.
