Nate Wells leaves Irrational Games for Naughty Dog

[Sub-stance1]

BioShock Infinite art director Nate Wells just left Irrational Games, and today he's revealed it's for a new gig at Santa Monica-based Naughty Dog. Wells announced the news onTwitter earlier today, though didn't say much more beyond that – it's unknown whether or not he'll have any hand in Naughty Dog's next game, The Last of Us.

Wells was one of three high-profile vacancies at Irrational Games last week, which was soon followed by one high-profile hire: Epic Games alumnus Rod Fergusson. In a follow-up piece, Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine commented on Wells' departure andBioShock Infinite's new art director, Scott Sinclair.

I quickly clicked on this thread thinking that Evan Wells left Naughty Dog for Irrational Games(I just skimmed at the title without thinking, Lol). For someone with such an interesting artistic fidelity, do you think that perhaps he'll work on a different IP?. I can't see his art style fit in The Last of Us. Or who knows?.

Art director from Bioshock working at Naughty Dog? Bring on the awesomeness. If they made yet another new IP (maybe for next generation?) that would be awesome. After all Naughty Dog has already stated that The Last of Us is a stand alone tale, not meant to be a new series.
