GI: How often do you think we’ll be seeing new chunks of story and content?Well, I can't say I'm exacty thrilled about the responses they made when hit with the Team Fortress 2 questions. It seems that they at least have a sense of humor about their own scheduling. I'm not exactly sure that will really matter to a number of fans who felt burned by the delays though. But hey, maybe I'm wrong?
Lombardi: Episode Two is already in development - we’ll ship it when it’s great. We’re not saying our key strategy for episodic content every four months or every month, or whatever. If the episodes are strong and people like them and sign up for Episode Two, and so forth.
Newell: They were supposed to be three months apart. (laughs)
Lombardi: We’ve learned that, once again, we’re better at making quality than trying to keep to a schedule. (laughs)
