I think I hid my singing talent from a lot of my friends at school because I didn't want to alienate anyone.

One thing that probably is unique at Activision is that we really spend a lot of time up front with our audiences, and in big quantities and with a very thoughtful process, to really try and draw out from them what it is that they would like to play.
