10/12/2010 THQ invokes Deepak Chopra games

Publisher hopes to "invigorate the lifestyle" genre with games based on spirituality guru's teachings.

THQ has led the "transmedia" charge of combining gaming properties with those from other media, signing deals with the likes of SyFy to develop games and TV shows in tandem. However, the publisher's latest effort to mix the gaming industry with outside influences resembles more of a traditional licensing deal, as THQ announced today that it would develop a line of games based on the teachings of spirituality guru Deepak Chopra.

The multiyear deal, reached with Curious Pictures, sees THQ gain publishing rights to games based on Chopra's media empire on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS, and mobile platforms. The deal also extends to online gaming portals, including Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, and WiiWare.

The publisher did not say when it plans to bring its first title based on Chopra's teachings to market, noting only that it would augment its casual games portfolio. THQ executive vice president Martin Good also commented that the publisher "has grand plans to invigorate the lifestyle category with this game."

A medical doctor, Chopra has written more than 55 books, with THQ classifying 18 of them as best-sellers on mind-body health, spirituality, and peace. The India-born guru also runs and chairs a variety of organizations, including the Chopra Foundation and the Chopra Center for Wellbeing. Chopra is also a columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle and Washington Post and contributes to various online destinations such as Oprah.com, Intent.com, and the Huffington Post.

10/20/2010 EA acquires Angry Birds publisher

Publisher augments its mobile gaming arm by picking up iOS specialist Chillingo; Reuters puts purchase price at $20 million.

 

Casual game companies have been the target of a number of high-profile acquisitions in the last year. Shortly after laying off 1,500 employees last year, EA announced that it had purchased Pet Society developer Playfish in a deal worth up to $400 million. In July, Disney jumped on Playdom for the figure that could exceed $ 700 million, and recently, the Japanese social DENA company Ngmoco games bought for $ 400 million .

Now, another big-name casual game company came and went at auction, as EA has confirmed GameSpot today that it has acquired a British publisher of Chillingo. Although terms were not disclosed, the source told Reuters that EA paid $20 million for the company. EA declined to comment on Chillingo's purchase price.

"By acquiring Chillingo, EA Mobile is increasing its market leadership on the Apple Platform, as well as reaffirming its position as the world's leading wireless entertainment publisher," an EA spokesperson told GameSpot. "EA remains committed to preserving Chillingo's independence and letting them continue to manage and cultivate their great network of relationships with independent developers."

Chillingo also produces the Crystal software development kit, which helps indie studios capitalize on the free-to-play, microtransaction-based business model. The Crystal SDK currently supports iOS platforms, as well as Adobe Flash.

10/06/2010 Snoopy Flying Ace dev working on free-to-play sky combat game Smart Bomb, the developer behind the surprisingly well-received XBLA/PSN title Snoopy Flying Ace, recently announced an upcoming collaboration with online games publisher UTV True Games. Did none of those words catch your attention? How about these: Free-to-play; flight combat; online multiplayer; Unity engine; pizza taco money. Okay, that last part has nothing to do with anything, but you're definitely pay attention now.

According to the announcement, Smart Bomb's next project is a browser-based dogfighting sim titled Sky Legends. Little is known about the game -- only that it will be built on the increasingly popular Unity engine, will feature multiplayer matches and customizable planes, and is due out in the first half of 2011. Keep an eye on the game's official sitefor future updates. Or this site! It works, too.

09/24/2010 Atari launches Atari GO, with plans to 'reinvent' classics for social gaming Atari announced a new initiative called "Atari GO" (short for "Atari Games Online"), which is designed to leverage the company 'S current and future catalog in a variety of platforms, including consoles, mobile , social and online games.

Joystiq spoke with Atari Executive VP of Online and Mobile Gaming Thom Kozik, who said that the new program aims to use Atari's catalog and partnered indie developers to "not only move Atari more aggressively into providing casual online and social games, but leverage that well of experience and creativity that all of these independent developers have."



Kozik revealed that some of the Atari GO games will be tied into the company's core games. For example, a Facebook tie-in game might unlock extra content in the upcoming console racer Test Drive Unlimited 2. "So we're able to wire together, for a particular player, their virtual goods, their experiences and what they'll be able to share, back and forth," he explained. Additionally, Atari plans to "reinvent" some of its historic games within a social gaming context. Both Asteroids Online and Deer Hunter Online are due out by the end of the year and serve as "new reimaginings of those IPs in a socialized context," according to Kozik, "with microtransactions and a broader narrative."

09/17/2010 TGS: Final Fantasy Legends (mobile)

When I first heard about Final Fantasy Legends, I wasn't at Tokyo Game Show. It was on the train. There was a little billboard for the game, which sort of blew my mind. I'm sure that sort of thing is normal for citizens of Tokyo, but I'm still getting used to seeing advertising for cell phone games in public places.

As for the game, it looks like Final Fantasy 4: After . It's SNES-era Final Fantasysprite to work on an oblong screen, with some issues, frame rate, depending on how powerful phone. From the game point of view, 's old school Final Fantasy. You start this off as a teenage-looking boy, walking through the woods. Then some man jumps out of the bushes at you, and before you can say "discrete encounter", you get into a standard turn-based Final Fantasy 4 Style battle. Exchange several times, and then cute girl shows up, and the three of you form travel parties. From there, it 's with the over the world, where you get more fights (mostly bees) and to prevent public attractions such as the local castle and its ajoining cities.

If you're not burnt of retro Final Fantasy yet, you could do a lot worse than Final Fantasy Legends, especially if you're into the job system stuff. The game is said to have it in droves. Lets hope this one makes it outside of Japan in some form or another.
