Quake Dev Recently Got An Idea For A Game From An Unexpected Source

Games industry veteran Tim Willits, known for his work at id Software on Quake and Doom and now a top boss at Saber Interactive, recently got an idea for a new game from an unexpected source who previously advised people to stay away from video games.

Willits said he bumped into comedian Jimmy Carr at the airport and they got to talking about games, apparently. "He honestly gave me an idea for a video game. I'm not joking. Such a nice and brilliant guy," Willits said.

That's all Willits had to say on the matter, and Carr hasn't apparently discussed his game idea publicly online.
