Sno-Cross Races at Lightning Speed to Sega Dreamcast and Sony Playstation FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SNO-CROSS RACES AT LIGHTNING SPEED TO SEGA DREAMCAST AND SONY PLAYSTATION Crave Entertainment to publish exciting snowmobile racing game from Swedish Developer UDS Los Angeles, CA- May 11, 2000 – Crave Entertainment announced today that Sno-Cross Championship Racing will be coming to the Sega Dreamcast and Sony PlayStation consoles in Q3 of 2000. In this exhilarating racing simulation, game players can race real Yamaha sleds on authentic tracks from around the world. Ever wanted to experience the thrill of snowmobile racing, with the wind rushing by as you try to navigate your way around a world-class circuit – even in the dead of summer? Well, now is your chance – Welcome to the world of cool Yamaha sleds, all excellently modeled to take damage to five critical systems; eight famous racing circuits including Nagano, Japan, Aspen, Colorado and Munich, Germany; and multiple modes such as hill climbing, championship circuit, head-to-head and time trial that will truly test and challenge your racing skills. “Sno-Cross Championship Racing provides a fun and challenging gaming experience with its realistic sled modeling and physics engine,” stated Martin Spiess, Senior Vice President of Global Marketing. “In addition, it is currently the only snowmobile racing game for the Sega Dreamcast system.” In this two-player game, each of the worldwide racing circuits provides diverse scenery, track conditions and challenges to keep players entertained. In addition, the game features variable weather and time of day and fully animated riders and objects, including helicopters and gondolas. Players can upgrade their snowmobiles by winning races, performing tricks and buying new parts. Then once they have completed the 500cc and 600cc, they will unlock the 700cc tracks and sleds for faster action. To provide personalization and replay value, the game has a track editor which allows players to design and create custom tracks that they can later compete on in single race mode.. So, get ready to accept the challenge and hop on one of the 12 authentic snowmobiles (designed directly from drawings provided by Yamaha) to experience a fun and realistic racing simulation game on both the Sega Dreamcast and Sony Playstation Systems.

  • From Simulation to Imitation
    SAGXXX10.1177/1046878114542316Simulation & Gamingde Castell et al. 542316research-article2014 Article Simulation & Gaming 2014, Vol. 45(3) 332 –355 From Simulation to Imitation: © 2014 SAGE Publications Reprints and permissions: Controllers, Corporeality, sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1046878114542316 and Mimetic Play sag.sagepub.com Suzanne de Castell1, Jennifer Jenson2, and Kurt Thumlert2 Abstract Background. We contend that a conceptual conflation of simulation and imitation persists at the heart of claims for the power of game-based simulations for learning. Recent changes in controller-technologies and gaming systems, we argue, make this conflation of concepts more readily apparent, and its significant educational implications more evident. Aim. This article examines the evolution in controller technologies of imitation that support players’ embodied competence, rather than players’ ability to simulate such competence. Digital gameplay undergoes an epistemological shift when player and game interactions are no longer restricted to simulations of actions on a screen, but instead support embodied imitation as a central element of gameplay. We interrogate the distinctive meanings and affordances of simulation and imitation and offer a critical conceptual strategy for refining, and indeed redefining, what counts as learning in and from digital games. Method. We draw upon actor-network theory to identify what is educationally significant about the digitally mediated learning ecologies enabled by imitation- based gaming consoles and controllers. Actor-network theory helps us discern relations between human actors and technical artifacts, illuminating the complex inter-dependencies and inter-actions of the socio-technical support networks too long overlooked in androcentric theories of human action and cognitive psychology. 1University of Ontario Institute of Technology, Canada 2York University, Canada Corresponding Author: Suzanne de Castell, Faculty of Education, University of Ontario Institute of Technology, 11 Simcoe St.

  • IGDA Online Games White Paper Full Version
    IGDA Online Games White Paper Full Version Presented at the Game Developers Conference 2002 Created by the IGDA Online Games Committee Alex Jarett, President, Broadband Entertainment Group, Chairman Jon Estanislao, Manager, Media & Entertainment Strategy, Accenture, Vice-Chairman FOREWORD With the rising use of the Internet, the commercial success of certain massively multiplayer games (e.g., Asheron’s Call, EverQuest, and Ultima Online), the ubiquitous availability of parlor and arcade games on “free” game sites, the widespread use of matching services for multiplayer games, and the constant positioning by the console makers for future online play, it is apparent that online games are here to stay and there is a long term opportunity for the industry. What is not so obvious is how the independent developer can take advantage of this opportunity. For the two years prior to starting this project, I had the opportunity to host several roundtables at the GDC discussing the opportunities and future of online games. While the excitement was there, it was hard not to notice an obvious trend. It seemed like four out of five independent developers I met were working on the next great “massively multiplayer” game that they hoped to sell to some lucky publisher. I couldn’t help but see the problem with this trend. I knew from talking with folks that these games cost a LOT of money to make, and the reality is that only a few publishers and developers will work on these projects. So where was the opportunity for the rest of the developers? As I spoke to people at the roundtables, it became apparent that there was a void of baseline information in this segment.
