Trip Hawkins, the founder of video game giant Electronic Arts and currently CEO of Digital Chocolate, is unveiling a new Facebook gaming platform called NanoStar Social Games that he thinks will take social gaming into the next generation. Chronicle reporter Ryan Kim recently asked him about the future of video games.
TopSpin 2K25 Review - After a very long hiatus, TopSpin is back! Can Hangar 13 bring the venerable tennis series back to relevance?
Almost unbelievably, Days Gone has just turned 5 years old after launching on April 26th, 2019. What's changed in that time?
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "I feel The Hungry Lamb is for a specific audience, though I can’t quite align with whom that might be. It’s not thrilling enough to land in constant VN recommendations, it’s got uncomfortable relationships which will put most people off, and the endings never hit the high note that satisfies everything. The twists are pretty recognizable from a distance, the voice acting is good, the character designs are alright and the pacing is decent. So many things rubbed me the wrong way and it makes it very easy to delete it from my PC concluding the review. Dive in if you must because of morbid fascination, but you’ve been cautioned: it’s a downward spiral without anything to make the trip worthwhile."
Digital Chocolate... My friend is working there
Founder of EA and the 3DO...he is a visionary. Glad he is in this industry. People ought tho listen to what he says over others such as, I don't know, Michale Patcher for one.
Wasn't one of the visions the 3DO? Look how that turned out...
I do have to say I liked the 3do and still have the FZ-10. Probably the very best home translation of super street fighter 2 and samurai showdown this side of the arcades.
Pricing was whack though. Expensive as hell but it had some pretty interesting games. Cpt Quazar, crash n burn (would love a remake or sequel), gex, total eclipse and it gave birth to the NFS series on home consoles.
He envisions social gaming as the future...could happen as more people get into social networking. Seems like a very likely move for entertainment.
