Doublefine Recruits Staff Member

Which isn't much of a story, until Kotaku reveal that the staffmember is in fact Ron "Monkey Island" Gilbert, being hired by Tim "Monkey Island" Schafer. The interview is really worth reading for the gags alone, but basically Gilbert was working in the Double Fine office (As he hates working from Home) and Schafer offered him the gig to make what they were talking about. This fits neatly into Doublefine's current many-small-games biz plan.
