'Darlings' Of UK Games Honoured With Queen's Award
I guess it's pretty easy to forget that behind the gigantic, cold, icy face of big business there are founding individuals who worked their fingers to the bone.
Richard and David Darling, founders of British industry giant Codemasters, have been awarded the CBE. If case you're interested, that means Commander of the Order of the British Empire (and probably comes with +5 stamina +10 agility too) and is quite the honor.
Richard and David are a real bedroom coder to multimillionaire success story, having begun their careers making BMX Simulator. In 2007 the brothers sold their stake in the company, after 21 years in games production.
