Doug Church, the man EA entrusted Steven Spielberg project LMNO with, has joined Valve.

During his long career, Doug Church has worked on some of video gaming's greats. He's credited on the Ultima, System Shock and Thief series during his long spell at Looking Glass Studios. He then went on to help Crystal Dynamics make Tomb Raider: Legend.
