Anyone know of game company facilities that are in the MA/NH/RI/CT area? Now that I'm looking for a job again, I figure I may as well take another run at landing with a game company. I've been looking around but if anyone knows of any, please post away with the info. I can use all of the help I can get.

So far, I've come up with an Atari facility in Beverly, MA (though email to their HR dept came back) and an Activision facility in Needham, MA.

Well, I know there's still Hasbro. :)

At one time, Impressions, now owned by Sierra, used to be based outside Boston. Not sure if they still are, though.

I know I've read of other indepdent game companies and makers in New England, just can't recall where and who right now.

I only know of Activision and Hasbro.

What is your "skill set" for the game industry. I can keep my eyes and ears open for you too.
