Although primarily based in the West Sussex town of Horsham, the Creative Assembly also operates an Australian branch in Fortitude Valley, Queensland. In its early years, the company worked on porting games to DOS from Amiga and ZX Spectrum platforms, later working with Electronic Arts to produce a variety of games under the EA Sports brand. In 1999, the company had sufficient resources to attempt a new and original project, proceeding to develop the strategy computer game Shogun: Total War. Shogun: Total War was highly successful for the Creative Assembly and is regarded as one of the benchmark strategy games. Subsequent titles in the Total War series built on the triumph of Shogun: Total War, increasing the company's critical and commercial success.
In March 2005, the Creative Assembly was acquired by Japanese giant Sega as a European subsidary. Under Sega, further Total War titles were developed, and the Creative Assembly entered the console market with action-adventure games such as Spartan: Total Warrior and Viking: Battle for Asgard. The company is currently working on two projects: Empire: Total War and the real-time strategy title Stormrise.

"what are you ashamed of?" he asked a guy who lost all what he worked for in his life in one day. Rare display of empathy from a brithish journalist, i guess.
@DeadWhiteButterflies
Way ahead of you. Subbed to his stuff ages ago 😁 Chris is brilliant. I hope you have him back again. I really would love if you got him to talk to the guys at Playtonic. Because I'd love to see a doc about the history of Rare, since it's most of the original team.

@struggopuggo
The interview with Tim Ansell is very well done and also very touching.
@davedogge2280
It was very touching and I can relate to it. I got burnt out being in a very nasty business for many years and one day I decided to just sell up and get out as I had enough. I went into a completely different business and I am much happier now; like Tim I don't know anyone from that previous life.
@mattturner7461
Agree, really good job Chris with the interview. It was nice to see the airtime given to his personal feelings rather than restricting it to the company, he clearly regrets some decisions and something like this has allowed him to set the record straight.

I know right, touching stuff
