All through college, Spector enjoyed gaming, and “played Avalon Hill games mainly, and a lot of ''OGRE'' and ''G.E.V.'' games, and Rivets from Metagaming. It was all boardgames until I became friends with science-fiction writers who were into ''D&D;'' games, so I gave the game a try. I was hooked.”
In 2004, Spector left Ion Storm to "pursue personal interests outside the company". In 2005, it was announced that he had established a new studio Junction Point Studios, where he is working on an unspecified game. A job advertisement for the studio called for artists for a game that has "classic Hollywood cartoons" featuring "cartoon mice, cats and wabbits". On July 13, 2007, it was announced that Disney Interactive had acquired Junction Point Studios. His first project with Disney Interactive is a project involving classic Disney characters, titled ''Epic Mickey''. The game has been confirmed to be a Steampunk title and is being designed exclusively for the Wii. Spector has contributed a great deal to video game theory, and constantly promotes the importance of proper execution of ideas in video games.
Spector is usually credited as a producer, except for ''Deus Ex'' on which he is also credited as project director.
