    Marcus Stephenson Moves To THQ For SvR

    "Some of you may already be familiar with Marcus Stephenson. He has been around for quite some time driving community initiatives or just being accessible within the community. After running a Madden fan site for years he took a position as a Community Manager at the EA Canada studio before moving between a few different projects, most notably as a Producer on NBA Live 10. He has now left the EA Sports studio and holds the position of Game Designer for WWE Smackdown vs Raw at THQ. I had the opportunity to ask Marcus a few questions about his time at EA and his new role at THQ."

    Re: Marcus Stephenson Moves To THQ For SvR

    I'm VERY excited that he's opening the lines of communication. I know they've said they read the boards, but to have someone that will answer as many questions as possible will be great for the community.

    I'm warning Marcus now though. I have such a passion for wrestling (as he does) and love talking about it that I'm going to take full advantage of these open lines of communication. It'll be completely respectful, but you'll probably get annoyed by it at some point. I can't help it.

        trust me my man, I won't be annoyed. We all want the same thing here

        I've been around the block as far as community engagement goes, and I think it only benefits what we're doing. You'll see me here all of the time!

          This is definitely a step in the right direction...if what he does for SvR is anywhere near what he did for NBA Live, I will pick it up on release day without hesitation!

            Okay, so you won't be annoyed, but you're still going to hear a lot from me. Now I just need to make any ideas I have clear and concise.

            I'm just way too excited about this news. And because I didn't say it in my previous post...Congrats Marcus!

              That's all I ask. We all want the same thing, so now that you know that, let's have a conversation, which can be WAY more productive!

                Hey, you were going to hear a lot from me regardless, and it was always going to be respectful/constructive...just up to you whether or not it annoyed you, you know? But now that I know it won't, it's all good.

                        Wow. I had no idea you left EA. I really love the work you did on NBA LIVE 10. When you were announced the FIFA Online Community Manager I thought you were staying with EA. You have to do what you want though. Congratulations on the new job in something your passionate about.

                        I'm a hockey and football fan first, but maybe you can get me into wrestling. After all, I am not a soccer fan but I bought FIFA 10 and I love it, and I am not much of a basketball fan but I love NBA LIVE 10. So maybe I will buy your game next year. :wink:

                        Also I will follow news about this game because I follow news about pretty much every sports game. I will be asking you questions soon enough.
