Steven Strobel possesses expertise in game development, xbox 360, gameplay, unreal engine 3, ps3 and 21 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "When it comes to optimizing game art and making complex games work within performance and memory budgets (while still looking good) - Strobel is simply the best person I know. My highest recommendations." and "Strobel is one of the most intelligent and thoughtful people I have ever worked and could easily walk circles around most MIT grads I know. Without him our team would not have been able to ship Borderlands 2 or any of our other titles, period. His technical expertise and attention to detail pushed Borderlands 2 and our other titles across the finish line, just when the projects where in jeopardy of slipping during the last 6 months of development. He easily saved the company a large amount of money due to his skillset and dedication. His technical knowledge puts Strobel at the top of his game, and many people could make a career on what he knew alone. However Strobel was always working on expanding his skillsets and knowledge, continually improving himself for the right reasons, which where to help the team around him. He would often work late, problem solving and trying to figure out, not just a solution, but the best solution to any issue at hand. The saying gets thrown around a lot that “This person would be an asset for any company”. Well Strobel would be an asset to any company and that company could easily be any game company on the planet, a top educational institution, or NASA. Because not only is he a great technically minded person, he is a very hard worker, is a great at handling visuals, optimization (process and asset), and is a design minded individual. On a personal note, I came to rely on Strobel to always shoot me straight on a project. He could identify the trouble areas of a project and can guide any team about the best way to fix those problems. He is an honest, truthful, hardworking and dedicated person, and I am very glad I had the chance to work with him."
