Romero opens new MMO company

John Romero, creative mind behind some of the most influential FPS's of all time (Quake, Doom, Wolfenstein) has officially opened a new company called Slipgate Ironworks, a new MMO developer based out of the California Bay area.

The company has already secured its funding for its first game which will be released "when it's done", the standard tag line of Id Software, a company co-founded by Romero.

Slipgate is looking to staff up currently, looking for a senior 3d arist, mid-level tools programmer, concept artist and senior game designer. So if you're in the industry and looking to tackle a new IP with a couple of gaming legends then here's your chance.

All in all I'm looking forward to what this company churns out. Hopefully something to brighten my day thanks to all of the less than stellar MMO's currently on the market and those on the horizon.
