Ubisoft Attacks Action-Horror Genre with Cold Fear™ UBISOFT ATTACKS ACTION-HORROR GENRE WITH COLD FEAR™ Paris, FRANCE œOctober 6, 2004 – Ubisoft, one of the world‘s largest video game publishers, today announced that it will be publishing Cold Fear TM , the first action-horror title under the Ubisoft brand. Developed by Darkworks, the game will launch simultaneously for the PlayStation ®2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox ® video game system from Microsoft and PC-CD Rom. Cold Fear is slated for release in March 2005. Ubisoft renews the horror genre by combining the popular elements of both action and horror releases, delivering an action-packed, tension-filled gaming experience. —Horror fans are hungry for a compelling new title and we believe our debut action-horror release Cold Fear will bring them strong emotions to say the least…,“ said Alain Corre, Ubisoft‘s managing director for Europe, Middle East and Asia. —The game is set in a dynamic environment on a stormy sea, including intense combat, intelligent enemies, and a high element of the shockingly unexpected. Your life jacket won‘t be sufficient!“ Players step into the role of Tom Hansen, a U.S. Coast Guard who is sent to board a drifting Russian whaling ship in the middle of a howling storm on the Bering Sea and will discover there is no safe place here. On this constantly rocking and shifting ship and a mysterious oil rig, players must turn their interactive surroundings to their advantage to take down human enemies œ and enemies that aren‘t human any more - and save their own life.

Images monstrueuses et monstration de l’image, de Zombi à 2Dark. https://doi.org/10.1215/08992363-10.29173/af29417 Guillaume Baychelier [email protected] E.A. CLARE, Université Bordeaux Montaigne Résumé. Cette étude examine, à travers un corpus de jeux vidéo horrifiques développés en France sur une période de près de 25 ans, comment le renouvellement des iconographies et la relecture des codes narratifs, tout comme celui des mécaniques de jeu qui y sont habituellement employées, constituent rarement le cœur de des propositions vidéoludiques françaises. Néanmoins, nous montrons comment ces créations ont bien souvent pour point commun de mettre en perspective les procédés de mise en image qu’ils déploient, de la mise en scène au mode de modélisation adopté en passant par la question du flux des images et du regard. Il s’agit donc de voir comment l’horreur, devenue terrain de jeu avec l’image, semble être un prétexte idéal pour travailler, explorer, manipuler le médium et, ainsi, faire évoluer le média. Mots clés : Horreur; jeu vidéo; image; France Abstract. This study examines, through a corpus of horrific video games developed in France over a period of nearly 25 years, how the renewal of iconographies and the re-reading of narrative codes, as well as the game mechanics usually employed in them, rarely constitute the core of French videogame proposals. Nevertheless, we show how these creations very often have in common to put into perspective the imaging processes they deploy, from the staging to the modeling mode adopted, as well as the Alternative francophone https://journals.library.ualberta.ca/af/index.php/af 8 Guillaume Baychelier question of the flow of images and the gaze.
