Symposium Faces Industry's Pressing Issues |
Ó
The upcoming London Games Festival gives more focus on game design- tackling its cultural and creative dimensions. As such, one whole day of symposium and lively debate will be dedicated for its discussion. General topics include the game design's craft, its discipline, as well as current and future possibilities.Dubbed as Sense of Play, the conference does hold relevant weight as key players in the industry were invited over. Patrick O'Luanaigh (nDreams, former Creative Director at Eidos/SC) discusses ways on how to improve storytelling in games. He had actually started on this topic during the past Leipzig Games Convention. O'Luanaigh shares, "WeÂ’ll be exploring what it means to be a games designer, looking at where interactive storytelling is going, and how the industry is trying new ways to create deeper levels of emotion and immersion."
Furthermore, Charles Cecil (Revolution Software) confronts the so-called "content crisis" that is currently bothering the games development and publishing communities. Finally, projects within and beyond the broadcast realm will be handled by Rob Cooper (Interactive Drama & Entertainment, BBC).
Co-sponsor University College for the Creative Arts invites everyone to this free symposium. Sense of Play takes place at London's Soho Theater and will run from 9.30am – 5.30pm. Interested parties need to pre-register by going to the official website which is where you'll be when you click the link.

Recently, there’ve been some articles about the ‘super secret PS3 title’. First off, I’ll tell you some facts. There’re more than 30 gaming websites (counting only US and UK based) which are bigger, more popular and more renowned than this QJ thingy. Probably the biggest among them are GameSpot and IGN. I have read the job descriptions to become full-time editors (who write game reviews, previews, news, and all other essays for subscribers to read) at both sites. Both require similar qualities (qualifications); you should have at least about 1-2 years of writing experience, and the minimum education level is high-school graduation. Yes, world’s two biggest gaming sites hire some high-school graduates for the editor positions, and I’m sure all the other sites require similar education achievements. This is a thought-provoking piece of writing and not written for everyone. If you can’t take it so far, stop reading at this point; you’re not worth it. Anyone who has at least some post-secondary education knows that the ppl who write things at QJ know nothing about the secret title. Why? Due to the fact, right now, there’s no website in the world which has the concrete information on the secret title. Finally, if you are one of those many ppl (I saw more than 10) who complained to QJ for treating the readers like kids, only visit famous sites then and don’t complain to the administrators at QJ.
