To coincide with this we're planning to give away a whole host of game codes to people who submit the funniest, yet real questions. The game codes up for grabs are Sniper Elite V3 and Murdered Soul Suspect. We welcome a touch of humour to the questions, but please remember to keep the questions clean folks. This is your chance to ask Richard Huddy any technical questions, make it count OcuK.

Thought I'd ask a question too, but don't worry i won't win a code. :p

With such an awesome job title, working for such an awesome company, how long do you think it will be until we have 'real life' TressFX hair effects?

Hi Richard, what does your job title involve mainly, and what was the one defining moment for you in PC gaming specifically?


Also as a fellow hair free humanoid, is it a case of the less hair you have the higher your pay grade?

Do you consider Mantle a success? With the likes of Thief taking months and months to get Crossfire support and Sniper Elite V3 now only getting single GPU support after being out for months and that doesn't have Crossfire support either, could AMD work closer with the game devs to get Mantle into the game before it is launched?

One of my main gripes with AMD is how slow they are to get things done/fixed and I would love to see them on the ball when a Mantle title is announced.
 
What is it that attracts Brits to AMD?

It just seems everyother AMD employee i newly discover has a British accent, well having said that Roy's accent is almost British, he seems to have developed a misfitting U.S twang in his speech.

What exactly does a gaming scientist do? Are you a real scientist or is it just a job title and is that white jacket you are wearing in the picture just a posh lab coat!
 
Some good questions so far guys and love the humour too. Just remember, nothing offensive please. :)
 
Richard, would AMD ever consider funding a game studio? providing it with their tech etc to make games on their behalf? also what is your personal top 5 games of all times?
