David L. Adams (born January 3, 1975), is an American video game designer best known for his work on ''Darksiders'' and ''Warhammer 40k Online''. ==Bibliography== In 1997 David Adams founded Stone Jackal Studios in Gilbert, Arizona and developed and released his first title ''Crush! Deluxe'', via publisher MegaMedia Corp. Crush! was received as a popular niche game, and is considered a "Top Dog"〔http://hotud.org/component/content/article/42-sport/21726〕 by The Underdogs. He left Stone Jackal Studios to co-found Realm Interactive to pursue the development of a new game based on the popular BBS door game ''Trade Wars''. Named ''Trade Wars: Dark Millennium'', Realm Interactive generated interest in the industry around the nostalgia of the old game.〔http://pc.ign.com/articles/364/364427p1.html〕 NCSoft initially decided to publish ''Trade Wars'',〔http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/exarch/news.html?sid=2873897&mode=news〕 but later decided that since the game had changed significantly it should be renamed as ''Exarch''.〔http://pc.ign.com/articles/388/388359p1.html〕 Later NCSoft decided to purchase Realm Interactive, and moved the then Mesa, Arizona based development studio to their offices in Austin, Texas. In 2005 David Adams left NCSoft, to found Vigil Games with other former NCSoft employees, where they began work on ''Darksiders: Wrath of War''. In March 2006〔http://www.vigilgames.com/news_031606.php〕 Vigil was acquired by THQ. In 2007〔("THQ AND GAMES WORKSHOP GROUP PLC ANNOUNCE EXCLUSIVE WARHAMMER 40,000 LICENSING AGREEMENT" ), "Vigil Games", 2007-04-01.〕 Games Workshop, selected THQ to develop their Massively Multiplayer Online version of their popular ''Warhammer 40k'' series dubbed ''Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millennium Online'', THQ then gave Vigil Games the project to do the actual development. As a part of THQ's Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Vigil was closed on January 23, 2013. Just days later, Adams became CEO of a new Austin-based branch of Crytek, known as Crytek USA. The studio hired many of Vigil's former employees as well, based purely off their work under his leadership.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://venturebeat.com/2013/02/04/how-crytek-ceo-cevat-yerli-decided-to-hire-the-ex-vigil-team-based-on-a-single-meeting/ )〕 After the re-construction of Crytek, He left Crytek and formed a new independent studio called Gunfire Games 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「David L.
