Green Monster Games has new president, VP, and art director

It was back in September of last year that we announced the troika of Curt Schilling, Todd McFarlane, and R.A. Salvatore – the group who created Green Monster Games (GMG). This company looks dead serious in creating a kickass and innovative MMORPG, but aside from the job opening, we haven’t heard anything about that kickass MMO from GMG. This next tidbit may give you a slight idea of what they’re planning to cook up.

Recently, Schilling announced the appointment of Brett Close as GMG’s president. Apparently, this guy is great when it comes to marketing games and among the games that he has delivered are Medal of Honor: Rising Sung, Medal of Honor: Frontline, and Nightcaster: Defeat the Darkness. And for his first announcement, the newly positioned GMG prez has appointed Mary Kirchoff as Senior VP of Marketing and Brand Development.

Kirchoff was responsible for the branding, business development, and all that jazz for Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast’s popular titles (like Dungeons & Dragons, Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance brands). President Close also welcomed Chaz Sutherland as Art Director. Sutherland comes from the company firm Shiny Entertainment and recently dabbled as a Visual Effects artist and visual effects animator on games like Matrix: Path of Neo, Medal of Honor : Rising Sun , and Allied Assault: Spearhead , Golden Eye 2.

With the core group already being completed, all we need now is some updates on that MMO they are working on.
