A new thread for a new year.
Like in previous threads, if you come across a developer page that you feel requires some work, but aren't completely sure what's correct, feel free to post it here and hopefully we can get it sorted out. Just post the developer name as the subject when starting a new sub-thread.

Could you help direct me to the correct thread, please? The stickied thread is locked. Thanks.

Are they both the same company? From their respective overviews, Player Research Ltd. has 'Founded in 2012' while the overview for Player Research Canada states 'the formation was announced on 11th December 2017'.
So, is Player Research Ltd. the parent company while Player Research Canada a Canadian subsidiary (I notice that there's also a UK branch)?
Sebastian Long (5) on 11/24/2023 10:56 AM · Reply · Permalink · Report
They (we) are one and the same company, with multiple offices/locations — including the UK and Canada.

I've merged the two companies. I noticed that the 2 games credited to PR Canada (Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace & Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle) only listed 'Player Research' in the credits anyway. Should 'Player Research Canada' then be removed as an alternate name?

Pretty sure theres two Toshihiro Kondōs https://www.mobygames.com/person/537892/toshihiro-kondo/credits/
One is the current president of Nihon Falcom, while the other works in marketing for Konami.

In the Rhythm Tengoku credits, several of the debuggers are mapped to the wrong people. Here's what they should actually be:
Yasushi Adachi (Y. Adachi) should be Yuhei Adachi.
Hironobu Sakaguchi (H. Sakaguchi) should be Hiroko Sakaguchi.
Noriyuki Watanabe (N. Watanabe) should be Naoki Watanabe (895105).
Yoshikazu Yamashita (Y. Yamashita) should be Yuji Yamashita (1278753)
As for the unknowns, here's what I've found. I'm still missing D. Morita and Y. Nakai though.
D. Nishikawa = Daisuke Nishikawa
S. Adachi = Shingo Adachi (993938)
H. Matsuda = Hiroki Matsuda
K. Umeda = Kazuhiro Umeda
Y. Fujikawa = Yoko Fujikawa

Chris & Christopher Bruser are likely different people. The latter's LI profile has him at a different company with a different role during the time ReignMaker came out. Also, looking at the other credited artists on ReignMaker, this seems to be either their only credited title, or they also worked on Frogdice's other game "Dungeon of Elements".

So the game above has "Music Composer: Tee The Darknight, Unyque Artists" in the credits. I just figured out who this is supposed to be.
This is actually Toyin Agbetu - according to Discogs, one of his AKAs is Tee "The Dark Knight" Agbetu, so the name is partially misspelled. He also owned a label called Unyque Artists. The credit should be amended to use his real name and his AKA. :)

Fold Kristine Moser (1152230) into Kris Moser (92233)
It's pretty clear this is the same developer - is credited in other Broderbund productions from this period.
Atari Games' RoadBlasters also credits this developer as "Kristine Moser"

Split: Erina:
https://www.mobygames.com/person/950220/erina/
The original entry was for a Japanese singer that goes by that as her stage name (her studio profile is here); there's a second credit from Slayers X that is very likely not her, since the dev is not Japanese.

Judging from the other voice actors in the credits, it's possible that they're a Youtube user, or just a voice actress. Or it might be the creator of a sound pack for all we know.
Frankly I'd move towards making that an entity instead. If the identity of that person pops up later than we can create a new profile.

The Cookie Run credit is very likely for a different person, since that's a programmer, and this dev's other credits are in animation.

A bunch of Lemon Sky Studios staff:
Jake Chin
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1252358/jake-chin/
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1394964/jake-chin/
https://www.mobygames.com/person/722266/chin-tian-kiat/
https://www.mobygames.com/person/872296/leon-gan-zaer-ying/ - AKA needed, "Gan Zaer Ying" (the credits didn't pick this up automatically)
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1058753/eugene-wan-juin-ming/ - AKA needed, "Eugene Wan" (see above)
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1059452/william-wijaya/ - AKA needed, "William Widjaya" (from KOF XV credits), Wijaya is the proper spelling based on his LinkedIn profile. Note there's also a Denny Widjaya that works there, but I'm fairly certain that's a different person, so please leave him separate.
Edit: A few more from this company...
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1093280/xerlax-goh-yi-shen/ - Needs "Xerlax Goh" added;
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1093278/alvin-chin-yoon-sean/ - Needs "Alvin Chin" added;
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1363851/yi-chyi-lee/ and https://www.mobygames.com/person/1394947/lee-yi-chyi/ are the same person. I realize both have different roles, but they both work at Lemon Sky and the latter is credited under that name as "Translator" in KOF XV (the former has a translator credit.) Xerlax Goh is also listed as a translator in these same credits.
There's probably several more dupes in credits for this company, if anyone wants to dig into them.
Edit: Xu Lin - The Crimson Dragon credit from this profile needs to be moved to this one (it's a Plusmile Co. credit, the others are for other companies.)
Chen Heng: https://www.mobygames.com/person/983057/chen-heng/ / https://www.mobygames.com/person/1008820/chen-heng/ Both work for Shanghai ArtCoding as artists.

Graeme Williams: https://www.mobygames.com/person/48362/graeme-williams/ , https://www.mobygames.com/person/1010598/graeme-williams/ , https://www.mobygames.com/person/833815/graeme-williams/
They should be merged based on this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/83mz9u/burnout_paradise_where_the_developers_are_now/
Williams worked at Virtuality, Psygnosis and Rebellion before joining Criterion in 2002 as head of product management. In 2004 he became development director before leaving in 2008. After five months at Supermassive Williams joined VIrtual Toys (second profile) where he worked until 2011. He next joined Digital Chocolate before joining Ubisoft in 2013. From 2014-2016 he worked at Guerrilla (third profile) before taking a break and joining Virtually Live in 2017.
Also, the Madden NFL 24 credit for "Captured Dimensions" is for this other developer, an American. https://www.linkedin.com/in/graeme-williams-b9700b2a/ so it has to be split.

Source: I am Joseph Boyd as mentioned in the Dune Sea credits. Christopher Rowles and Tom Brown are colleagues and friends of mine of which we have worked on a few game titles together, Dune Sea being one of them.

Thanks for the report. Here are the final profiles after merging:
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1181249/joseph-boyd/
https://www.mobygames.com/person/869462/christopher-rowles/
https://www.mobygames.com/person/887198/thomas-brown/
Tom Brown's primary name has been set to Thomas Brown because it's our policy that the primary name should usually be the developer's legal name, except in the cases of musicians or famous celebrities. However, if a developer would rather their primary name be set to something else, like a shortened version, they can contact us and we can change it for them.

merge: https://www.mobygames.com/person/191144/dimitar-tsvetanov/ https://www.mobygames.com/person/141422/dimitar-tzvetanov/
both entries have Tropico credits

They actually appear to be two different Haemimont Games artists with the same name. You can see from credits (eg. here) that they were credited separately with different roles (eg. Lead Env. Artist & Senior Env. Artist). On this release, they're credited on the same role but with different nicknames. Going by their LI profiles, one also spent time at Ubisoft Bulgaria while the other was at Bioware for a brief period. Both profiles will have to be gone through to split the right titles/roles to the right person.
Edit: These are fixed now. I added the aka 'Dimitar Tzvetanov' for Dimitar Tsvetanov since he was credited that way twice (once when both artists were credited with the same role and also on the Ubisoft title so it was clear who the title belonged to).

These are both the same person (me!).

Hopefully this was the right place to come to see if they can be merged.

I was wonder if the Michael Anderson of https://www.mobygames.com/person/1308810/michael-anderson/ and https://www.mobygames.com/person/686037/michael-anderson/ is the same person. One was linked for Graphics and the other one for Program Coordinator.

https://www.mobygames.com/person/4840/llewellyn-ligas/ and https://www.mobygames.com/person/366129/llewelyn-ligas/ are the same person. The former should be the correct spelling.

https://www.mobygames.com/person/1365086/yang-hao/, https://www.mobygames.com/person/1358709/yang-hao/ These may be the same person as they both worked on 2K Sport games

Possible that they are 2 different people but there are people on the file who have worked on a lot of the yearly 2K games throughout the years though funnily enough i can't actually find them when i'm looking for them lol. I'll see if i can submit some more 2K sports game credits throughout the year and come back to this thread if the name appears in them.

https://www.mobygames.com/person/851040/fawzi-allouach/
His proper name is Fawzi Allouache - looks like his name was misspelled in those credits. I'm adding the credits for the remake of the game he's credited in and his name is spelled correctly there. https://soundcloud.com/flaneboster
https://www.mobygames.com/person/851046/deborah-ouelle/ They should have the AKA "Kureiyah" added, it's listed in the credits for Inexistence Rebirth. https://www.artstation.com/deborahouelle

Robert Cox: https://www.mobygames.com/person/54850/robert-cox/credits/
The person credited in The Psychotron is not the same person who worked at Insomniac, he needs to be split to a separate entry.
Also, both this profile and this profile need to be merged into the Insomniac entry - his LinkedIn page says he got his start at THQ doing QA work.
Finally, the NOC Administrators credit from here needs to be moved to this Robert Cox. I couldn't find any info about that Lego credit, so it's best to keep that to its own profile.

Markus Müller: I already submitted a correction ticket, but maybe this is the better place to do it. https://www.mobygames.com/person/867099/markus-mueller/ is the same person as https://www.mobygames.com/person/915465/markus-muller/ and should be listed as an alternative spelling of the latter entry.

Hi. These two profiles both refer to me, and I'd like to know if I could get them merged into one with my current name (Kiri) without the "AKA".
https://www.mobygames.com/person/412880/clifford-jolly/
https://www.mobygames.com/person/1082710/kiri-jolly/
The name has already been updated in the credits of the current live versions of every game listed on the older profile, and I can provide other proof as necessary.
Thanks!
