SN Systems' tools have been invaluable during the making of 'Cold Winter' from start to end. The compiler produces excellent object code, the built in profiler is incredibly useful, and the debugger is packed with reliable and easy to use features.
Alongside this the support team at SN have been quick and helpful when responding to our changing needs meaning that, in short, SN and ProDG allow us to focus on the job of creating cutting edge PlayStation®2 content.

Living in and around Dublin
Dublin is a capital city with something for everyone and far too much to cover on this one page but here’s a little taster of what you can expect should you decide to join our Dublin office:
Filled to the brim with culture whether you’re interested in music, arts or literature, Dublin is blessed with a history second to none. From Oscar Wilde to U2, true greats have walked the streets of this city.
If you prefer your beats to Yeats (sorry) then Dublin has nightlife to match any city in the world. Vibrant and youthful, with numerous nightclubs, world-famous pubs and cinemas to enjoy. Just make sure you’re up in the morning for work.
Dublin has international shopping to cater for all your needs and desires. A stroll along Grafton Street would be a good start but the city caters for all tastes and minds if you prefer something a little off the mainstream.
As well as fascinating city architecture, the surrounding area is also worth a mention for those that enjoy things a touch more rural. Beautiful countryside and coastline are within easy travelling distance from the centre and make a wonderful contrast from the hustle and bustle of the big city.
Dublin hosts the country’s busiest seaport and airport which is based just 10km from the centre. From Dublin airport you can reach the UK, several US destinations and other long-haul destinations.
