Gavin’s Underground: Interview with Big Finish Games

Gavin has posted an interview he did with Big Finish Games, one of the biggest gaming companies here in Utah. Check out the full interview over at Gavin’s Underground as he talks with Aaron Conners and Chris Jones about their careers and the game, Three Cards to Midnight.

Gavin: How did you take an interest in gaming? And what were some of your favorites growing up?

Chris: Hmmm…back when they didn’t have computers. What did the ancient Egyptians play?

Aaron: We both grew up loving board games and I always preferred them, even after I got an Atari 2600. Pacman, Donkey Kong and Asteroids came out while I was in high school, but I kind of lost interest until I actually got into the business. One game I thought was really innovative was called “Psychic Detective”. More recently, I liked Psychonauts. Pretty much any game with the word Psych in it, I guess.

Chris: We did like some of the LucasArts and Sierra games – Indiana Jones & The Fate Of Atlantis comes to mind.

Gavin: When did you become involved with Access Software?

Chris: Well, I was there from the beginning.

Aaron: I joined Access in 1991 and became their first (and only) full-time writer.
