Chapter 593: Very Special Thoughts
This one was developed by Willie. Dr. Higginbotham's zuò game is rudimentary. ∮ ∮ ∮ ∮ said, www.
The game is called "tennis-for-two", which translates to "tennis for two" in Chinese, and consists of an analog computer and an oscilloscope.
What is an oscilloscope?
You should have seen the kind of radar during World War II in film and television programs, and the screen that displays radar is an oscilloscope.
The rules of the game are very simple, there is only a simple "net" and a flickering "tennis ball" on the screen, and the gravitational force and elastic force in the game will affect the movement of the "tennis ball". This particular installation completely captures the attention of visitors and even allows them to spend all their time here.
So, on this list of candidates, Willie. Dr. Higginbotham's name was also put first.
Because if there was no Willy. Dr. Higginbotham's pioneering work at the time, so when video games will come out is probably something that no one knows.
Another point worth mentioning is that Willie. Dr. Higginbotham, who participated in the Manhattan atomic bomb project, can be awarded two bombs and one star according to domestic parlance.
As for the second place, it is naturally the pioneer of Atari.
Nolan was the first to make video games a huge industry comparable to movies. Bushner.
His most famous work is none other than "Pong", which made Atari soar, and the miracle of sales of home consoles before Jester's dreambox, the Atari 2600, and there is a famous joke about the Atari 2600, when the prototype of the Atari 2600 was developed and sent to Bushner's office, when Bushnell asked his assistant in a tone that could not control his excitement and excitement.
"Do you know what this is?"
The assistant replied puzzledly: "This is our home game console?" ”
Bushner, on the other hand, immediately rejected his assistant's answer in a categorical tone: "No, this is not our home console. This is the latest version of the money printing machine! ”
Indeed, as Bushner said, the Atari 2600 in that era was the latest version of the money printing machine.
It can be said that without Bushnell and Atari, there would be no video game industry today, although because of Atari's connivance and inaction, they almost destroyed the industry they created.
However, after some discussion, the organizing committee decided to name Bushner. It is in second place on the list.
Basically, although the voting has not yet begun, but, basically, the final winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award will only be born between these two candidates.
As for when he himself will win the award.
Perhaps, it will be three or four years before you can get your turn.
Other awards are such as Game of the Year, as well as Game of the Year awards in various categories, and only games released in the 90th year. will be eligible for the selection, and there is no restriction on the platform on which the game is released, whether it is a PC or a home console. Whether it's a handheld or an arcade, now is the time for major game development companies to submit their nominated games.
In January, the official selection will begin.
The final results will be announced at the GDC Awards Ceremony.
Basically. Although Outlander Requiem has not yet been released, it is already the most profitable winning game of the year. Many media outlets think that according to the quality of the game of Outlander Requiem, it is simply intolerable not to win the best game of the year.
Of course, "Requiem for an Exotic Town" is not without competitors, after all, whether it is other game companies or the interior of Mars Entertainment, many large-scale zuò have been released this year, all of which are well-made and have a high reputation.
For example, the Final Fantasy series released its latest work this year.
However, the highest voice.
It's "VR Warrior" that Yu Suzuki released on the Sega arcade at the beginning of this year, and basically, the number of people who support "VR Warrior" is a little more on the current media award predictions.
After all, VR Warrior has been on sale for almost a year.
The excellence of this game and the shock have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and although "Exotic Requiem" has blown this game into the sky from all walks of life, including players who participated in the trial on the carnival, they have also given very high praise to this game, but after all, this is a game that has not yet been released, and at this point, "VR Warrior" has a lot of advantages.
And after Yushi Suzuki's "GAME" interview was published in the latest issue of "GAME", it did cause an uproar in the industry.
This is even comparable to the previous blockbuster news of Minoru Arakawa's sale of Nintendo's game industry and the announcement of Nintendo's withdrawal from the video game industry.
"Yu Suzuki participated in Jester's big plan, and Jester promised to make two games for Sega within five years...... "When Ken Kutaragi, who was far away in Tokyo, read this interview with Yu Suzuki for the first time, although he was also in extreme shock, but this time Sega's cooperation with Mars Entertainment did not touch his bottom line.
It's just developing games for each other.
Moreover, Kutaragi Ken is also a little jealous, why is Sega's Suzuki Yu so valued and valued by Jester, and they don't have such a person on Sony's side?
Their Sony's current trump cards are Namco and Konami, which they have made very big interests to agree to their games, exclusive on their own PS consoles, and most importantly, they are not like Sega or Mars Entertainment, with a very strong first-party development camp.
Although over the years they have also acquired some game development companies.
However, most of these game development companies are second-rate companies, and the games that make zuò are not well-sellers.
At this time, Kutaragi Ken suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and this sense of crisis was extremely strong, that is, a console development company, without its own excellent first-party development camp, is insecure.
Now that I can rely on my interests to win over Namco, they will abandon them for the sake of profit in the future, so I must build my own world-class top game development studio.
Of course, it takes time and even more money.
In order to prepare for the keynote speech at the GDC, Jester had to postpone his plan to take the team to China, because he would stay in China for more than a month, that is, after the end of the domestic trip, plus he stopped by Japan to see the situation of the branch, back to the United States, and will soon be ready to participate in the GDC Global Game Developers Conference.
There is simply no time to prepare.
Therefore, he can only prepare a theme before leaving, and then use the time he has been away for more than a month to perfect the theme as much as possible.
However, it is clear that things are not so easy.
Jester thought about it for two days, but he couldn't think of any particularly good topics for his speech.
It's not the same as giving a talk to players, even though he's pretty good at it now, it's a talk to game developers from all over the world, it's about the future of games, it's about the game, it's about the game, it's very difficult to make all game developers happy.
Originally Mark. Seni's theory is a very appropriate subject, but he has already spoken about it on several occasions.
The six years of game development experience that I shared with Itagaki Companion are not very suitable.
It's not that the content is bad, but this thing is not suitable for giving speeches in public, and he is suitable for one-on-one private teaching.
The door to Jester's office was pushed open, and Mark. Saini walked in.
Seeing Jester sitting on a chaise longue with his face facing the ceiling, his eyes blank and unfocused, he knew that Jester hadn't thought of a suitable subject yet.
"Hey, let's take a break and have a coffee?"
As he spoke, Mark. Seni placed the steaming cup of coffee in his hand on Jester's table, and then pushed it in front of him, and Jester was not polite, he took a sip of the coffee, and then asked Mark. Saini.
"Mark, do you have anything good to build?"
"Nope." This time Mark. Seni replied cleanly, he pursed his lips, and said, "You didn't say anything about the advice I gave you before. ”
Jester shook his head and didn't answer.
Instead, he took a sip of coffee and took a cup of coffee, and while drinking, he frowned, probably still thinking.
"Jace, I went to the review department before, and found that the expression of the new projects recently has increased by almost a fifth, and I have a cursory look, and many of the project ideas are good, but it is impossible for us to review so many projects at one time...... "Mark. Saini seemed to be looking for something to talk about and let Jester rest his brain first.
However, after hearing that Mark. When Seni said this, Jester's eyes lit up.
He looked at Mark with a smile on his face, who was still talking something. Senny, and Mark. Seni also noticed this somewhat strange gaze from Jester, he stopped his words, and then the game looked at his body strangely and asked.
"Is there something wrong with me? How do you look at me in this light? ”
"Nope!"
Jester's tone was excited.
"I just had a very special idea!" (To be continued......) R527
