Exclusive Dolby Axon Interview with Matt Tullis

Did you ever have moments where you cringed when your friend started
talking to you through your voice client? Were you disappointed when
you had to shut off your $500 5.1 speaker system just so you could chat
with your friends through your headset? Those days may soon be long
gone, if target="_blank">Dolby's recently unveiled Axon technology
can keep all of the promises that the developers discuss in their
opening press release. Since the Ten Ton Hammer staff is always the
first on the scene of breaking news, Cody "Micajah" Bye caught up with
Matt Tullis, the senior manager of the Games Market division at Dolby
Laboratories, and the pair discussed all of the intricate details
behind Dolby Axon and just how the technology came to exist. Don't miss
this interview!

The
Dolby Axon technology certainly seems like an interesting voice
communication solution for online game developers, but many of you are
probably wondering whether some developers are already working with the
Dolby Axon technology. When I quizzed Tullis about this very question,
he said that there are around a dozen companies that are under
evaluation, but he can’t discuss when we might see any of
these games
on the market. However he did mention that they’ve been
“working with
companies for awhile” and they just “want to make
the games sound as
good as possible.”
