" I don’t see development agencies falling over themselves at the moment to invest in a development company ..esp an indigenous company"[/quote:b2238b470d]

Someone really needs to call the government on its policies then. I remember hearing digital media was high priory for development agencies and talk of it being the basis of our future economy only a few years ago. Has anyone with an experienced team (Business heads and Industry Vets) actually asked for assistance recently? Probably not, so the reception may not be as frosty as we all think? I’m in a very positive mood today I know.

Think any new company should start small: psp, ds, xbox live, mobile, zune, ipod… All possible with a team size under 20. Less wages to pay, smaller timeline, equally as profitable.

Starting a next gen company is near to impossible in my mind. Cost is huge, as is risk.

Oh and if we are spending other peoples money for them what about Bono? He’s loaded :). Elevation partners were interested in buying games companies, why not start one.
