Jace Hall visits 3DR HQ for his new show
The deal: Appearantly, Jace Hall is going to have a scoop of the Duke on his show! And Jace Hall is not just anyone, he was the CEO and Founder of Monolith Studios (Blood, Tron, No One Lives Forever, Condemed, F.E.A.R.), and works these days as head of Warner Bros. Interactive Studios division.
Jace even had this little wave file on his website, indicating that he's got something he wants to share about DNF (or maybe an Xbox Live version of Duke3D?).
So, let's hope our dear former Monolith CEO has something interesting for us fans to look at.
Check Jace's Website here for further updates from his end.
Update: Check out the one minute preview of the Jace Hall Show HERE.
There's also an interview on the same page that clarifies what these five-minute weekly webisodes are all about:
I'm lucky enough to know senior people at very popular videogame companies, says Hall.
They just thought the show was amazing and they wanted to be a part of it. Because there is a desire within the videogame development world for there to be a little bit more exposure for the people. Since everything is always focused on the product, it's very rare to have names on boxes, things of that nature. So this could be a conduit for people to express themselves; show their personalities; show that there are actually real human beings behind these mega-blockbuster videogames.

So, all the people who were hoping for another trailer, release date or whatever.
Don't be too dissapointed.
Jace hanging out at 3D Realms will no doubt be good entertainment. And maybe we'll see some new media flashing by.
