Yawn. McGee is a developer who was big on potential but short on execution. Just because he was a level designer he feels then need to plaster his name on all his products like he's some kind of peer to Sid Meier, Will Wright or Peter Moleneux.

In reality his products have been consistently sub-par and commercial failures. Alice was released 8 (!) years ago to mediocre reviews and poor sales. Bad Day L.A. was a complete disaster (28 at metacritic).

If he's so amazing that he precedes every game with his name, then how come none of his games are worth playing? He's just another John Romero: egomaniac who got lucky being on a great dev team in the mid 90's and hasn't been able to come close to repeating success on their own, thinking that THEY were the reason for the success.
