And you know how long he's been there how exactly? You're aware Leftos works for 2K Sports right?

He left EA in late June, early July per the previous article that was referenced in this article. As a husband and father of 3, it would have taken him several weeks to move across country and settle down. Therefore a week or two at 2K is pretty damn accurate.

Yes, I know Leftos works for 2K.

zero knowledge of 2K's Animation engine unless 2K is also powered by Ignite...

Not trying to say this isn't a big win for 2K, but to think that he's making a significant impact on this year's game is absurd.

And I know everything. I broke the news of Zynga teaming up with Tiger 5 months ago -

He has an amazing passion for the game, he's driven and he never says no when you want to throw an idea against him and discuss it for hours, nor does he shy away from bringing up and working with us on all the ideas he has.

An incredible addition to the team.
Yea, I think I'll take Leftos word

I might know what I'm talking about, at least as far as how much he has helped me. :P
