Aaaaaand as to Hudson being involved in the other games, I don't feel like he was REALLY actually involved in the sense of actually coding, writing dialogue, creating textures. He's just a director, pretty much tells people what to do. The games don't really feel like they have his stamp on it. If you asked me who Hudson was before ME3, I'd have gone "Who?"
Game Director/Main Producer is as involved and important as movie director.
Hrm. IMDB does list under directors' profiles what their trademarks are-- like, something that you immediately associate with a certain director.
Like, you know, with Joss Whedon-- everyone's going to die. (or a fan favorite dies... or the main character... )
Hudson just doesn't have an outstanding trademark for me.

Not to say that his job isn't important, but ... it feels like games just don't have that "attention" with devs like movies does with directors. (Hell, I distinctly remember at a point devs actually weren't allowed to be credited or something and someone snuck their name in a game as an easter egg.)
Yeah, I'm probably just not great at paying attention.

I still couldn't really tell you who's responsible for awesome games like Portal and Borderlands, just the publishers' names. This is something that I need to end ASAP.
