Re: Lack of memorable music in games today
because western games are trying to be movies in every possible way (and failing miserably). big orchestral scores! licensed pop music! ~~~we gotta be more epic and BaddddAsss~~~ the game industry is obsessed with the term, "epic". because back in the day, sound chips had limited capabilities and you needed to rely on more… -
Re: Dealing with uninspired, unwilling, and untalented individuals
I agree with a lot of people in here; in that you shouldn't worry what others are doing. However, from experience, when you've graduated and you get your loan bill through for thousands of pounds/dollars, you want to be able to know that you got your moneys worth. If their behaviour directly effects that, then you have… -
Re: Top 5 Game School Ads
"I met tons of gamers at Devry, we'd sit and talk about games for ours" My old Creative Director had a loaded question he asked in every interview: "Which would you say you are first, an artist interested in making games, or a gamer who wants to do what you've always loved." Artist = +1 Gamer = -100 He considered most… -
Re: XBox XNA Video Game
Hi everyone! Thanks for all the e-mails so far. I'd like to clarify a few things: 1) Yes, this is a paying gig! 2) Our time schedule is for the next two months, June and July. Over that period we're looking to design and implement somewhere between 50 - 100 creatures/objects with a handful of backgrounds. 3) We'd prefer a… -
Re: Anyone considering buying a GP2X?
Hmm I played both the normal and the expansionpack till the end on Linux. No problems with Doom3 at all. Try looking in one of the many Linuxmessageboards (exspecially those specific for Suse) for help. What soundcard do you have? I think there are problems with non Creative soundcards that cause it to crash during… -
Re: Dead Space 2
People bitch just as much if companies don't make enough changes and just poop out a cookie-cutter sequel. Short answer is, they've already made that game. Play the first one again if you want the same experiences. As creative type people, they want to keep growing and expanding on the ideas presented in the first. If they… -
Re: Bot Bike
I can understand that. It's a great model from a creative standpoint. And the technique is amazing. These new renders look great. I just had to point out what is obvious since no one else had yet. To someone who spends time riding motorcycles, all the flaws are very apparent. To anyone else, it's very shiny. If you were to… -
Re: Passion: What is yours? (Vets and all)
[ QUOTE ] I like drowning kittens. [/ QUOTE ] And then there are those guilty pleasures most of us keep to ourselves. Ror must have had some good booze going thru his viens when he posted that =P As for me I like art. Almost as broad as Hawkins "japan" preply but really I like anything creative. If my wife is making… -
Re: How does overtime work at your company??
I work in the non creative side of things (Tech support) Which most in the industry will tell you isn't a real "industry job". But hey whatever, I get into E3, it pays really well and our crunch time is only one month out of the year. From Dec 26th until the end of January is the only time we are "allowed" to rack up OT… -
Re: Self-Employed Cabin Fever
got any local go kart tracks? those things are killer and have good membership discounts... a great way to blow off some steam and meet all walks of life photography classes would be cool imo or sculpture... keep your mind off work but still art related enough to maintain well lubricated creative gears a turnin' you're in…
