Being a former film guy/actor who worked in the video game area on a game that became a "franchise" (I think they are up to the 4th or 5th game) I can understand the plight of the actor...but at the same time I see it from the game developers point.
Unless the game is using some sort of new tech application. (I.e. a new 3d inhance graphic generator or something) the developers have no idea how much or how well the game is going to do.
Now on the side of the actor... if the actors voice talent is good enough to rate a return for a second game...or other media of voice over work...then it is the actors AGENT that needs to fight for the compensation for the actor...NOT the union. (granted the union is very weak in its current online media postion pertaining to residual compensation for talent).
Ok this can be come very long and blah blah blah on my end. Just my two cents.
well its good to know what the laptops can take...lord knows when we will fall asleep in our oven during a late night programming session...I mean come on...dont we all climb in to keep warm or is it only me?
