  • The Prince of Persia Returns
    THE PRINCE OF PERSIA RETURNS ACTION-PACKED PRINCE OF PERSIA ® 2 (WORKING TITLE) BOASTS BRAND NEW FREE-FORM FIGHTING SYSTEM Paris, FRANCE - May 6, 2004 - Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers, today announced that the company‘s award-winning Montreal studio is currently developing Prince of Persia ® 2 (working title) , a follow-up to the most critically acclaimed game of 2003, Prince of Persia The Sands of Time™. The Prince has to embark upon a path of both carnage and mystery to defy his preordained death.

Only through grim resolve, bitter defiance and the mastery of deadly new combat arts can the Prince rise to a new level of warriorship œ and emerge from this ultimate trial with his life.

  • Montreal Before Ubisoft Edited
    Loading… The Journal of the Canadian Game Studies Association Vol 7(11): 130-132 http://loading.gamestudies.ca The Montreal Indie Game Development Scene… Before Ubisoft Jason Della Rocca Execution Labs The year 2012 marked the 15th anniversary of Ubisoft’s Montreal studio. Established in 1997, it has come a long way from being a young team of rookies working on Playmobile games, to a 2200+ staff powerhouse pumping out massive hits like Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry. I can still recall some very preliminary conversations with Ubisoft execs asking for my thoughts on whether Montreal would be a good place to set up shop. Many credit Ubisoft for getting the Montreal game development scene rolling, in part because they were the first major global player to set up in the city, and they heralded in the era of positive government intervention (i.e. the multimedia labour tax credits regime). And, in many ways they served this pivotal role of accelerating the clustering of big game studios in Montreal; EA, Eidos, Warner Brothers, Funcom, and THQ all followed on the successes of Ubisoft. However, it is easy to forget that a game industry largely made up of independent studios already existed in Montreal (and neighboring Quebec City), that there was already momentum building before Ubisoft arrived. There was already groundwork and history in place – for games specifically, but also more broadly in terms of graphics and simulation (think Discreet, Softimage, CAE, Kaydara, etc.), and creativity (think Cirque du Soleil, NFB, etc). The fact that Montreal was not a blank slate is an important detail that escapes most economists and politicians who are trying to recreate similar clustering effects in their own city or country.

    ANALISIANALISI DELLADELLA CRESCITACRESCITA DIDI SOCIETÀSOCIETÀ DI GAMINGGAMING ATTRAVERSOATTRAVERSO LALA LETTURALETTURA DEIDEI BILANCI TESI DI LAUREA DI GUGLIELMO CALAMIA PACINI TESI DI LAUREA DI GUGLIELMO CALAMIA PACINI MATRICOLAMATRICOLA 212111 212111 INTRODUZIONE L’oggetto della tesi di questo saggio è analizzare alcune delle più note aziende dell’industria dell’intrattenimento videoludico. Si partirà con delle breve esposizioni della loro storia, i pe- riodi di crescita più significativi e l’analisi dei titoli chiave del loro successo degli ultimi dieci anni dal 2011 al 2019; le so- cietà prese sono la EA Sports o Electronic Arts Inc., la Ubisoft Entertainment SA e la Nintendo Co. Ltd. Su ognuna di esse verrà analizzata, tramite la lettura dei loro documenti di bilancio, la loro evoluzione anche collegando a questi dati numerici le informazioni relativi all’immissione dei prodotti chiave nel mercato e le loro conseguenze nei pe- riodi successivi. Una volta esposte tutte le imprese, ci prodigheremo alla for- mulazione di ipotesi sul loro futuro. 3 DESCRIZIONE DEL MERCATO L’incredibile successo di questo mercato dell’intrattenimento è frutto di un continuo sviluppo tecnologico iniziato in America a partire dalla fine degli anni ’40 ma arrivando alla prima di- stribuzione globale di prodotti videoludici solo nel 1961. Fu tuttavia a metà degli anni ’60 (1966) che fu introdotto uno degli strumenti principali del successo videoludico nonché elemento chiave per molte imprese neo-entranti, l’introduzio- ne della prima console. Dall’introduzione di quel primo modello, molte altre imprese hanno tentato di ottenere il controllo del mercato delle console e a oggi solo tre imprese detengono il controllo: la Sony, con la PlayStation; la Microsoft con l’XboX e infine la Nintendo con i suoi GameBoy, Wii e più recentemente Nintendo Switch (tra l’altro la EA e Ubisoft distribuiscono i loro prodotti console pro- prio su PlayStation e XboX e Switch).

Scott Miller (Apogee/3d Realms): … you can buy coins (hence, pay-to-win) to reduce the number of mindless play-throughs that end in unavoidable failure. The Supercell games fall into the same category. Pay to win refers to games that are purposely designed to encourage monetary investment to propel the player to greater success. George Broussard (Apogee/3D Realms) When you see "pay to win" just realize it means many things: - pay to win - the dev is milking you of $ by putting up paywalls - the game design is incentivized to milk you of money. Pay to Win is imo, just a generic phrase to indicate paywalls now. It's been adopted by the masses, so that's how it is now. Unknown: Making the game suck unless I spend money.
