Interview: Matt Woodley of Domark, on Championship Manager and Football Manager.

For the “Making Ofs” I do for PC Gamer, I always interview too many people. After Miles Jacobsen proved not as forthcoming as I’d hoped, for legal reasons, he recommended I talk to Matt Woodley, who has always worked with the series. And I did.

Judas book start

Enough. Everyone seems to think I will write one day, why I don’t know. Damn the premonitory bullying. I will start now. Here’s my portent. Here’s my book. So Judas is crying. He cries a lot at the moment. Perhaps he always was a weeper, a grabber of momma’s shawl, a chaser of comforting skirts. In the grim cities of the old middle east, where men are bound by the newfound strictures that seek to uphold societies and hold cities together, where there…

Ideal/Perfect

My ideal of the perfect person then. And my ideal of what I can achieve. I'm sure Aristotle says something about this in the Nichomachean Ethics, something about there being two best lives that should be lived, that which is the true best life, only livable by gods, and the best life for a man. Or that could have been my interpretation of Plato.

Creating Brand You

You might not realise it yet, but you're a brand. All this time you've been walking and talking and posting on the internet, thinking you were a person, when you've been a brand all along. Who'd have thought it?

Creatively, we write our names in the sand. I take joy in this process - in the creation itself - but I do not expect the things I make to last my lifetime. Work is evanescent, fame fleeting. Immortality only exists in fairytales.
