    Why John Madden Football Has Been Such A Success Kevin Dious STS 145: The History of Computer Game Design: Technology, Culture, Business Professor: Henry Lowood March 18, 2002 Kevin Dious STS 145: The History of Computer Game Design: Technology, Culture, Business Professor: Henry Lowood March 18, 2002 Why John Madden Football Has Been Such A Success Case History Athletic competition has been a part of the human culture since its inception. One of the most popular and successful sports of today’s culture is American football. This sport has grown into a worldwide phenomenon, and like the video game industry, has become a multi-billion entity. It was only a matter of time until game developers teamed up with the National Football League (NFL) to bring magnificent sport to video game players across the globe. There are few, if any, game genres that are as popular as sports games. With the ever-increasing popularity of the NFL, it was inevitable that football games would become one of the most lucrative of the sports game genre. With all of the companies making football games for consoles and PCs during the late 1980s and 1990s, there is one particular company that clearly stood and remains above the rest, Electronic Arts. EA Sports, the sports division of Electronic Arts, revolutionized not only the football sports games but also the entire sports game genre itself. Before Electronic Arts entered the sports realm, league licenses, celebrity endorsements, and re-release of games were all unheard of. EA was one of the first companies to release the same game annually, creating several series of games that are thriving even today.

Although some tropes are present in the game and are necessary to stay tonally consistent to the genre, I argued that much of the focus of the game is shifted from the typical situational horror of the monsters and violence to the overall narrative, effective dialogue, strategic use of cinematic elements, and character development throughout the course of the game.

  • Terrain Rendering in Frostbite Using Procedural Shader Splatting
    Chapter 5: Terrain Rendering in Frostbite Using Procedural Shader Splatting Chapter 5 Terrain Rendering in Frostbite Using Procedural Shader Splatting Johan Andersson 7 5.1 Introduction Many modern games take place in outdoor environments. While there has been much research into geometrical LOD solutions, the texturing and shading solutions used in real-time applications is usually quite basic and non-flexible, which often result in lack of detail either up close, in a distance, or at high angles. One of the more common approaches for terrain texturing is to combine low-resolution unique color maps (Figure 1) for low-frequency details with multiple tiled detail maps for high-frequency details that are blended in at certain distance to the camera. This gives artists good control over the lower frequencies as they can paint or generate the color maps however they want. For the detail mapping there are multiple methods that can be used. In Battlefield 2, a 256 m2 patch of the terrain could have up to six different tiling detail maps that were blended together using one or two three-component unique detail mask textures (Figure 4) that controlled the visibility of the individual detail maps. Artists would paint or generate the detail masks just as for the color map. Figure 1.

Overhead view of Battlefield: Bad Company landscape Figure 3. Close up view of Battlefield: Bad Company landscape 39 Chapter 5: Terrain Rendering in Frostbite Using Procedural Shader Splatting There are a couple of potential problems with all these traditional terrain texturing and rendering methods going forward, that we wanted to try to solve or improve on when developing our Frostbite engine.
