  • Firm Ecologies: Life Science and Video Game Industries in Liverpool
    Firm Ecologies: Life Science and Video Game Industries in Liverpool Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Dane Kevan Anderton. September 2014 1 Abstract This research examines the life science and video games industries in Liverpool. Previous research on agglomerations and cities tends to focus on epicentres or high concentration places such as Silicon Valley or global cities such as London and Tokyo, neglecting the northern post-industrial cities such as Liverpool, Leeds or Newcastle. Equally, many studies tend to focus in on one particular industry, whereas this research examines two key knowledge economy sectors in one place. Petilis (2012) argues that the cluster literature has become overemphasised and lacks analytical ability in the investigation of smaller firms and highly diverse concentrations of activity. An alternative ecological perspective is used in this thesis, which is considered more reflexive and flexible to the composition of the agglomerations seen outside the epicentres of the global economy. Using the heterarchical approach, as outlined by Grabher (2001), this research investigates the emergence and organisation of Liverpool’s life science and video game industries. It reveals the changing composition of the industries in Liverpool and how firms are connected into wider production networks beyond Liverpool. Finally, the research analyses how the two industries are situated in the anatomy of the city. The key findings are generated from a mixed methodology utilizing qualitative semi-structure interviews with owner-managers, industry informants and supporting institutions. Secondary quantitative data has been used gathered from annual reports, company websites, industry association and office for national statistics.

  • Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions Available Now
    Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions Available Now Next Chapter in the Award-Winning Geometry Wars™ Franchise is Newest Title Released under the Sierra™ Label SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Today marks the newest addition to the Sierra™ library of games with the release of Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions. This frenetic arcade shooter from developer Lucid Games is the latest installment in the Geometry Wars franchise. The new game advances the series to unexplored frontiers, bringing its retro-inspired action and energy to more platforms than ever before with an added twist to its classic gameplay - 3D grids! "Geometry Wars is a part of our DNA," said Craig Howard, Co-founder of Lucid Games. "Several of us here worked on prior games in the series, and we've had ideas kicking around in our heads for where it could go next. Partnering with Sierra to bring those visions to life has been an amazing experience." Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions is an exciting evolution of the fast-paced twin-stick shooter gameplay the Geometry Wars franchise helped define nearly a decade ago. While the game's look should be immediately familiar to hardcore fans, it features new 3D action and gameplay modes, a dedicated single-player campaign with 50 levels and revamped online cooperative and competitive multiplayer. It also adds five unique companion drones, new power-ups, electrifying boss battles and community leaderboards. There are also Classic Arcade modes available for those still hungry for the original Geometry Wars experience. Lucid Games' partnership with the Sierra label has given the developer an opportunity to remain independent, but still be able to create the game they dreamed about.

Music is important in video games. It has to be considered more than just an environmental stimulus. However, the role of music in user experience in video games has received little attention in the literature. In particular, there is still a need for investigation of the effects of self-selected music and the arousal level of music on player experience.
