So, I have said many times I would travel downtown where I Live and Visit Piranha Games. Well, I found out that Paul Inouye likes PEPSI, so having a day off and access to the Family Car, I headed off to downtown Vancouver with a case of Pepsi in Hand.

here is a couple of External Shots of the offices.

Piranha studios is quite nice, and handing Paul a case of Pepsi, Paul hands me an NDA to sign and then it's a quick tour of the offices.

The walls are adorned with pictures of flhflsjthl;wthsfvm,nsy blg. And then there were the Schematics of the various mechs including akfghlgkfsdjhgqhg;eqohgqghn.

Paul also showed me the 24 player lab (no-one was currently playing). that is room I would have loved to play in!

Not wanting to overstay my welcome, I shock Paul's hand and thanked him again for the tour and we returned to the front office where I got ready to leave.

In the picture above, one can see the LARGE YELLOW Picture of the Piranha Skull on the wall. Beneath that was some Mechwarrior pics, including a picture of the Dapper Atlas wearing the tuxedo, and next to that a picture of an URBANMECH! I asked Paul if this meant the urbanmech was:in MW:Online, and Paul said:

Oh, and I did I get a beta access?


Not yet :)

I forgot that Piranha handled the console ports of Duke Nukem Forever.





Also Paul has a terrible taste in soda and should drink Dr. Pepper.

Studio is easy to find if people want to see it (I'm not saying to crash them en masse.

In vancouver it's located in a Shopping mall, under a movie theatre (better than a bowling alley I'm sure :)

They did, and IGP/PGI printed out a pic pic for the front office. I wish I could find the atlas pic to refer too.

Anyone have a link to that atlas pic? My google-fu has failed to find it, though I did find something much stranger while looking...

Just when I thought the guys at PGI couldn't get any better...

Random fan stops in with a case of Pepsi

"Oh. Pepsi. Thanks. Would you like a tour of the place?"

Now that is customer service.
