Warren Spector

Joystiq reports: The official Twitter account for the Penny Arcade Expo has announced that this year’s PAX Prime keynote speaker will be none other than Warren Spector, creator of the classic Deus Ex and Thief games, and current driving force behind the upcoming Disney Epic Mickey. Spector’s no stranger to the keynoting game, having spoken at GDC and other conferences before. We got to talk to him back at E3 this year, and he’s right in the thick of Epic Mickey, thinking about accessible gameplay and how to build very famous and licensed characters into his game in a fun way.

So if, good reader, you are lucky enough to be attending the Penny Arcade Expo this year, you’re in for a treat and a speech from a former Ultima developer and all-around interesting guy.
