If you remember the X-Men Origins: Wolverine game on PS3, the movie was delayed about a year and unexpectedly gave the developers something rare in 2009, time.
Allison Salmon says the team never had to crunch because of the delay:
“We had LOADs of time…”
“We actually never worked crunch on it cause the movie got delayed.”
It wasn’t just enough time to finish, they had so much breathing room that Salmon says:
“I was on maternity leave for the beginning… came back and we still had time to goof around with making the Unreal Engine a deferred renderer (that we didn’t use!)”
The game is a rare gem that, from what I’ve seen, is way better than the upcoming new Wolverine from Insomniac, I miss PS3 era
