With BioShock Infinite now out and about and blowing the minds of people around the world, VP of Development Rod Fergusson [is] departing from Irrational Games in search of other projects.
Speaking to Polygon, Fergusson, who joined Irrational last year to help finish BioShock Infinite, states that he saw working with the developer as ‘a great opportunity to learn from Ken and his team’ due to him looking for better ways to tell stories in the games he works on. Prior to his employment at Irrational Games, he was at Epic Games as a Producer for the Gears of War series.
“I am very proud of the work that I did and of the team and what they were able to accomplish on Infinite. Now with the game shipped successfully, I’ve done what I set out to do here and now I’m looking forward to the next chapter in my life and career,” he said to Polygon.
One commentor, whose suggestion I found particularly funny, says that Fergusson should travel from one developer to another as ‘a closer.’ I have to admit, that’d be a pretty awesome job title.
