However, why not give it a try. Or some more.
Actually I've got a very good contact inside Sony America, but the financial crisis is preventing them from hiring new personnel. It seems that they are even planning to close some historical show-rooms around the Globe.
And this sucks because what I always dreamed is to make music for games since the ol' good Amiga days.
