I have just a little over 2 weeks to go before I bring my game audio career to an end. 33 years and 230 odd games later, I can be proud of what I've achieved, but it's time to move on.

Certain pundits look a bit silly after this 1st test. Even the alleged poorest Australia test team, are on the verge of winning the 1st test, and at a canter.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.
They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

I had the pleasure of converting Dan's fabulous MK2 arcade music to the Amiga back in 1993. As was the norm back then, I received a lowly C60 cassette of the music, and then I converted by ear. Only had 2 channels as the other 2 we're reserved for SFX. Enjoy the retirement, Dan!
After an incredible 37 year career, on October 1st, Dan Forden (1/4 of the original Mortal Kombat team) began his well earned retirement. I cannot overstate the impact Dan has made on pinball, videogames, NetherRealm & especially Mortal Kombat.
