The games from naugty dog software (crash bandicoot and others) were programed in Lisp.
Unfortunately they were purchased by Sony and had to stop using Lisp... I guess it's the same story as viaweb/yahoo store :-)

- doihaveto 18y agoAlthough in all honesty Naughty Dog used Lisp to write their own compiler from a Lisp-based DSL into highly optimized Playstation assembly, and then wrote huge chunks of the game in that. Which is a little different from wanting to learn functional programming by writing a game. ;)
