Titolo: Bruce Carver

Se ne parlava su Ready64 e su Lemon... mi sembra il caso di aprire un 
thread anche qui.
Purtroppo se n'č andato Bruce Carver, il co-fondatore della Access (Raid 
over Moscow, i Beach Head, i Leaderboard, Links, Tex Murphy... insomma, 
indiscutibilmente una delle leggende...)

Developer BIO
Carver founded with his brother Roger the Salt Lake City-based Access 
Software back in 1982. He began to produce titles such as Beach Head 1 
and 2 or Raid over Moscow on the C64. In the 90's Access created the 
Golf Simulation Links and moved on to produce early PC CD-ROM titles 
such as Under A Killing Moon in 1994.
     The company was acquired by Microsoft in 1999. Carver left in 2003 
to pursue new interests, including construction and large-screen golf 
simulation projects.
     He died on cancer at the 28 December 2005 at the age of 57. At this 
time he is survived by his mother Mary, his wife Lenna, three sons, 
three daughters and 16 grandchildren.

      World Class Leader Board (1987), Access Software, Inc.
Il gioco di golf definitivo.

     He died on cancer at the 28 December 2005 at the age of 57. At this 
E che catz di sfiga.

E' scomparso uno dei personaggi chiavi della generazione piu' amata
dagli attuali 30enni. Come non ricordare la bandierina sventolante alla
fine di Beach Head, gli evocativi scenari di Leader Board Golf e i
primissimi ambienti interamente 3D di Under a Killing Moon. Credo che
un programmatore di tale genialita' manchera' un po' a tutti i veri
appassionati di vg, dei vg che hanno fatto la storia.
