Will KnowWonder and Argonaut be working on future Harry Potter titles?
McMillan – KnowWonder and Argonaut want to work on future Harry Potter titles, but I can’t comment at this time on what they’re going to do. The next-gen Harry Potter games are being developed internally in the UK at EA in Chertsey. How did the UK secure this? McMillan – The long and short of is, I run the UK studios and Harry Potter is next to my heart [Bok – Ed]. I felt that nowhere else could this be developed properly with the ties I have. I have a home in London, I have a home in Vancouver – I spend a lot of time here. In order to make this work well we have to have a strong partnership with the film people and a strong partnership with JK Rowling, so I felt there was no other place in the world where we could do it justice [Hok. Bok – Ed]. We’ve got a fabulous studio here that does triple-A quality software, so tapping into the resource space and moving some of our key people from other parts of our studios here is just a natural progression.
