Countdown to CGE 2010 ~ July 31st & August 1st, 2010 ~ 31 JUL 2010

Classic Gaming Expo Distinguished Guest:
STEVE CARTWRIGHT

One of the many superstar game designers who helped bring Activision into the spotlight in the early 1980's, Cartwright's resume of accomplishments is a long and distinguished one. Barnstorming, Frostbite, MegaMania, Plaque Attack and SeaQuest were all hit titles which he designed for the Atari VCS. For the Commodore C-64 computer, he designed and produced a licensed home version of the blockbuster movie Aliens, which was the first game to sport digitized cut-scenes in a home game. He followed those titles up with a pair of well-received now-classic games -- Hacker and Hacker II.

He joined Electronic Arts in 1992, where he first helped revive the NBA Live product line, and then took the struggling PGA Tour line to multi-million unit success with the addition of Pebble Beach and Tiger Woods.

In 2002, he joined Glu Mobile where he designed or produced many of the company's top sellers -- including Deer Hunter, Bush vs. Kerry Boxing, DRIV3R, Popcap’s Zuma and Insaniquarium, and PlayFirst’s Diner Dash.

Following Glu Mobile, Cartwright spent 2 years as Executive Producer at TAG Games-on-demand Network, 2 years working with game legend John Romero at Gazillion Entertainment, and has now joined fellow Activision & EA veterans at a new stealth startup.
