Are there Creatures at Tattoo Sound + Music ?!?

If you've been by the studio lately you may have heard some horrifying and strange sounds billowing from upstairs.  

Well, remember back in early December when I wrote about Billy T's involvement in first person shooter game Far Cry 3?!

Source E Creative caught up with Billy T to discuss creating vocalizations for Ubisoft's Far Cry 3.    Check out the full article here.  Special thanks to Source E Creative and Billy T.  It was great working on this article together!

Voted Game of the Year by Gamespot against some stiff competition like Assasin's Creed III, sales have been impressive with over 400, 000 copies sold in just its first month!
Accolades in the gaming community include "Once in a generation experience " EGMNOW.com, "9.5/10" Digital Trends, & "Incredible" IGN.

Above is a game capture that is sure to send shivers up your spine!

Please contact me directly for any further media relations pertaining to this article.

*Update:  A big congratulations to the FAR CRY team and our wonderfully talented Billy T, who won the BAFTA (British Academy for Film & Television Arts) for Best Action Game!  We couldn't be more thrilled and proud.
