    Jon speaks about Sensible's latest state of affairs.

    Why has it taken so long for a PC specific
    Sensi?


    Because we encountered a number of problems, mainly
    to do with motion capture and 3D. Plus, we put a lot of energy
    into a lot of other products we're not developing any more.


    Give us an update on Sex 'n' Drugs 'n' Rock
    'n' Roll.


    We've lost it. It was about three quarters finished,
    but it needed a lot more investment. We took it to almost every
    publisher in the world. They all loved it, but said they couldn't
    publish it because of the subject matter. It makes me worry about
    what products we're going to see in the next few years.


    So what next?


    We've reduced down to a smaller company, and will
    continue to work on the soccer stuff. I think the gameplay is
    there, it's just a matter of improving on the graphical side.
    And getting a commentator who's not me.


    You're also looking for a buyer for Sensible
    - why?


    We've got no option. We cannot continue as we are,
    it's financial suicide. If you make one false step, you could
    lose everything that you've built up in your career.


    Finally describe yourself in terms of three
    video games characters


    Wizkid, because of his naive sense of adventure,
    Kinoplo, just because I pick him when I play Mario Kart, and one
    of the bats in Pong, because I'm also a boring old fart.
