GamersFirst has announced that the original All Points Bulletin creator, David Jones, has been named as one of Reloaded Productions’ team members. Jones will serve in an advisory role and will share his vast game design experience during critical design stages of the ongoing development of APB Reloaded. Jones' credentials include working on titles such as Lemmings, Grand Theft Auto and Crackdown.

Best known for creating the blockbuster “Lemmings” and “Grand Theft Auto” franchises, Jones broke away from DMA Design (later Rockstar North) in 1999 to create the Dundee, Scotland-based Realtime Worlds in 2001. From the beginning Jones had aspired to create an online GTA-style game, and as an intermediate step in 2007, under Jones’ creative direction, the company released the critically acclaimed and award winning title “Crackdown,” an Xbox 360 exclusive action-adventure third-person shooter title published by Microsoft. After Crackdown, Realtime Worlds focused its full attention on APB: All Points Bulletin, and created some of the most detailed and in-depth user customization and creation tools available in any MMO today. Slated for a May 18^th open beta, the new incarnation of the game, “APB Reloaded,” is poised to fulfill the vision and promise of an open-world cops and robbers’ adventure.
