I'm surprised he didn't say Company of Heroes. He said that he liked that game a lot, and couldn't go back to other RTS games because of it. (No I'm not a stalker, but I do know that he wears black, dress socks).
"What's your favorite swear word?" LOL!!!!

David Jaffe Is a hella down to earth dude.. He seems cool as hell I like how his thoughts on gaming and the direction he wants it to go like a matrix type deal where you completely immersed in the game like virtual reality or something.

He seems like a pretty modern guy. He doesn't appear to be stuck up or anything, and he kept it real about his college experience. I would like to be one of those people who can make it that far without heavily relying on college education, it just doesn't work for everyone. It's good to hear from people like him, kinda gives you something to shoot for.
