BETA-13 INTERVIEWS VC HEAD GREG THOMAS Click to see Greg Thomas interview, pt. 1 Click to see Greg Thomas interview, pt. 2 My mind is still reeling from the shock of that site beta-x posted. I really wish I;d heard about it a week ago -- Beta-13 called VC last week pretending to be a student doing a project on video game development, and he was able to get in and shoot an interview with Greg Thomas. I really wish Beta-13 could of asked him about this site. Beta-13 had to lob him a few softball questions to get him to let his guard down before he lowered the boom, so the interview doesn't reveal much until he starts asking him about development problems and beta testing. Don't let Thomas's seemingly pleasant manner and the fact that he wears shorts to the office fool you -- this guy is just as much of a snake as any of the suits at enron. It's a pretty big file, so I broke it into several parts for easier downloads, and I'll post the 2nd half of the interview tomorrow to spread the server load.

By going in there, shooting this interview, and posting it on Beta-7.com, a site that Sega is aware of and looks at, hasn't Beta-13 just given himself away? They know what he looks like, the fact that you said he shot this video, and posted it on your site means Sega will know it was him who intervied Greg Thomas, and they'll know what he looks like, and all that other fun stuff. Posted by: Believer at August 25, 2003 05:33 PM Seems to me that Beta-7 and Beta-13 are both thumbing their noses at Sega, practically begging Sega to have them arrested or shut the site down or something. I'm guessing Sega hasn't done that because they are hiding something. The evidence keeps mounting, Beta-7, but this game comes out in a week so I think you are losing this fight. Why hasn't the media picked up your story, Beta-7? Is there any media out there with the balls to stand up to Sega and possibly lose the advertising revenue? This is crazy that your story has been ignored for so long by mainstream media! Posted by: Zak at August 25, 2003 05:44 PM The reason why the media hasn't picked up his story is because it's fiction. Lots of the story has been put together well in the form of this website - but look at the "documents" on the 'segaswindle' page. Come ON, dude. You should be able to come up with better fake evil corporate shit than that. Still, if it is just a marketing thing, it's going about it in a strange way... Posted by: a2themizzo at August 25, 2003 06:35 PM I don't know why I keep comming back here. It's like looking at a grusom wreck, and comming back for more. Posted by: implayingeq at August 25, 2003 07:05 PM This is great stuff Sega(Beta 7). It's a strange way to advertise. But it is really working for you guys. Props to you on that. NOTE: On the next game you do this with, you may wanna get better actors. For phone coversations, blackouts and what not. Posted Posted by: MooshooGawd at August 25, 2003 11:19 PM You should DEFINITELY get better actors, 'cause the guy who plays "Greg Thomas" is a sucky actor for sure. Posted by: MooshooGawd is right at August 26, 2003 12:18 AM Fakest Greg Thomas ever! Posted by: Scooter at August 26, 2003 08:03 AM I still kinda confused if this is real or not. If it is: sue the living hell out of the bastards...what the hell are you waiting for? This is screaming for an 6 to 8 figure verdict. Posted by: at August 26, 2003 08:49 AM As i said before, i've been working with a lawyer recently. I can't go into any more detail than that. Posted by: beta-7 at August 26, 2003 09:01 AM
