GR Writes: "Warren Spector was at Nordic Game last week and there he talked about narrative in games. After the talk, we spoke to the game developer about the things he spoke about, System Shock 3, and, having worked for Disney, he also had some interesting things to say regarding the past and the potential future of Disney in the video game space."
Microsoft's Activision subsidiary announced today that it is opening a new game development studio to take advantage of the huge talent pool growing in Poland. It'll be the second Activision studio based in the region, joining Infinity Ward Krakow, although this studio is, in fact, not working on Call of Duty.
Developer Slavic Magic and publisher Hooded Horse announce that their city building sim Manor Lords has sold over two million copies since launch.
Still waiting for its first patch which is worrying. I know it’s been a single man developer but there’s really no excuse for no updates being released since launch. I’ve been part of many single developer releases that are updated daily, sometimes hourly. This’s hasn’t had a single one yet….
There are so many games that would straight-up print money for Nintendo if they got the remake treatment. Here are but a few of them.
it is kind off incredible when you think about it. The entertainment behemoth Disney effectively has zero presence in video games outside of mobile. I know there Star Wars and things like Marvels Spider Man but those would not exist if a 3rd party hadn't pushed Disney for the license.
Eventually Disney will turn its head towards the gaming industry. And they'll buy some giant studio like rockstar and they'll release GTA pga 13
Warner Bros has done a fantastic job in the video game space. No reason why Disney can't do the same.
I kinda want Disney to stay away from games, sure they can allow devs to make beautiful and high quality games like Spiderman (2018) but they are very controlling and if they plan to overtake the gaming industry like they are the movie industry we might not get anymore unique experiences.
