Podcasts about microsoft game studios

How long do piñatas live? The Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button has decided on another classic and our hosts are honor-bound to see it through... or at least play it for an hour. For this episode, they are tasked with maintaining a garden full of colorful creatures in the life sim developed by Rare and published by Microsoft Game Studios. This game launched alongside an animated series and resulted in a few sequels, so it must have some merit. That said, keep in mind that it was released nearly two decades ago. Did it age gracefully, or has all the candy inside gone bad? As usual, our hosts have played an hour and come to their decision. Will this oldie be a goodie? Join Tom and Chris as they take a swing and crack this game wide open, exposing all the tasty tidbits contained inside! What do you think? Let us know!

Marvel ist unartig Nachdem Disney Marvel übernommen hatte, ist die Kritik an Zensur und Disneyfizierung groß: Deadpool and Wolverine zeigt aber, dass der Konzern durchaus noch zynische, brutale & witzige Action zulässt. Überraschend kritisch und eine Hommage an 20th Century Fox lässt den Film trotz dünner Handlung sehr spassig sein. Alex Garlands Civil War Manche beschwören ja schon herauf, dass es in den USA zu einem Bürgerkrieg kommen könnte, wenn Trump wieder Präsident wird. In Einstimmung darauf könnt man meinen, der Film Civil War von Alex Garland wäre eine gute Anlaufstelle. Peppi hat er allerdings sehr enttäuscht. Master Chief is back Die Spieleserie Halo dümpelt bei dem Microsoft Game Studios vor sich hin, die Serie hat eine verständlichere Handlung und einen coolen Hauptdarsteller: Warum dies eine zu Unrecht missachtete Serie ist, erzählt Euch Matze Call of Duty endlich im Game Pass Sicherlich war das einer der Gründe, wieso sich viele Xbox Spieler über die Übernahme von Activision durch Microsoft gefreut haben. Die Hoffnung auf CoD im Game Pass. Und Microsoft enttäuscht nicht. Seit kurzem ist CoD Modern Warfare III im Game Pass. Was hingegen enttäuscht ist wieder mal die Single Player Kampagne. Sympathie für meine Hater Die Antilopen Gang ist zurück und hat Sympathie für meine Hater. Wir spielen Euch den aktuellen Rap Track aus dem im September erscheinenden Album vor. Der langsame Tod der PS VR II Die zweite Generation des VR Headsets von Sony für deren eigene Playstation war ja schon mal Thema hier. Wer sich erinnert, weiß, dass Matze sie am Ende nicht behalten hat. Jetzt ist aber die Frage, wie sie sich allgemein schlägt. Wenn man Gerüchten, die sich auf insider berufen, glauben will, dann nicht so gut. EA Originals Da macht EA mal ein Original, dann floppt es kolossal und das Studio wird dicht gemacht. Immortals of Aveum ist ein guter Mix aus Doom und Halo, frische Ideen und eine stimmige Welt. Jeder Shooter Spieler sollte reinschauen. Wie lange wird es Discs noch geben? Eigentlich keine allzu gravierende Nachricht, aber sie zeigt, wohin es gehen könnte. Sony stellt die Produktion von DVDs und BluRays für Privatkunden ein. Schlicht und einfach, weil es sich nicht mehr lohnt. Sie produzieren weiterhin für die Industrie und Großkunden – solange es wirtschaftlich sinnvoll ist. Wenn die Kunden also entscheiden, mehr digital zu kaufen, wird es eventuell irgendwann am Medium fehlen.

Activision, why? This week, we take an in-depth look at an admittedly great Xbox Showcase for this year's Summer Game Fest. There's lots to be excited about coming out of Microsoft Game Studios, Bethesda, and their partners such as Gears of War E-Day, Doom: The Dark Ages, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Interesting new IPs get thrown in the mix like the endearing South of Midnight and a new turn-based RPG in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. And of course, some third-party heavy hitters like Metal Gear Solid Delta. But let's talk about Black Ops 6 and a really irritating decision when it comes to skins. All this and more! Check us out on X and BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

EA also suiffered a similar fate wth major layoffs. Toys for Bob also announced its departure from Microsoft Game Studios by going independent.

Opgenomen en geupload. Een gloednieuwe editie van het GK Journaal. Iedere week bespreken we in deze rubriek de meest belangrijke nieuwsfeiten en de meest pregnante geruchten van de afgelopen dagen. Met vandaag nieuws over Xbox dat erg blij is met de voortgang van Fable en denkt dat Triple A games niet langer door één studio gemaakt gaan worden. De games zijn daarvoor te groot en complex geworden. Ook is er nieuws over Apex Legends dat record na record breekt. Wat is er nu weer aan de hand met de gratis shooter van EA? En heeft Naughty Dog nu een kleine glimps van hun nieuwe game getoond in de Remake van The Last of Us? Dit en meer ga je allemaal zien en horen in het GK Journaal van dinsdag 6 september 2022. Xbox zou Fable het liefst nu al laten zien Fable is een game waar we op de redactie meer dan reikhalzend naar uitkijken. We hebben namelijk een zwak voor de fantasierijke RPG light die Peter Molyneux ons lang geleden schonk. Nu, jaren later, heeft Playground Studios zich over de franchise ontfermt. De baas van Microsoft Game Studios, Matt Booty, volgt de game op de voet en zou hem, zo meldde hij in en stream op PAX, graag nu al aan de gamers willen tonen. Zo vet vind hij het worden. Dat gebeurt echter niet. Waarom dat is, vertellen we je in deze video. Krijgt nieuwe IP Naughty Dog fantasy setting? Matt Booty had echter nog meer te vertellen. Bijvoorbeeld dat hij denkt dat Triple A games binnenkort niet langer door één en dezelfde studio worden gemaakt. Waarom hij dat denkt en of wij het eens zijn met zijn gedachtengangen, dat hoor en zie je in deze nieuwe editie van het GK Journaal. Evenals het antwoord op de vraag of Naughty Dog heel sneaky een paar verwijzingen naar hun nieuwe game in The Last of Us heeft verwerkt.

Originally developed for IBM PC compatibles, it was later ported to the Amiga, Atari ST, Macintosh, and Commodore 64. Set in the year 4620, the game puts players in the role of a starship captain sent to explore the galaxy. There is no set path, allowing players to switch freely between mining, ship-to-ship combat, and alien diplomacy. The broader plot of the game emerges slowly, as the player discovers that an ancient race of beings is causing stars to flare and destroy all living creatures. The team coded the game mostly in Forth with a few key routines written in x86 assembler. Forth was chosen since it is easier to use than assembler and more compact. This was important because the game had to fit into 128K of RAM. It took "fifteen man-years" and three actual years to develop the game. The group designed what they called a "fractal generator", which took six man-years to develop and allowed them to increase the number of planets in the game from 50 to 800. The game was one of the earliest to use procedurally generated content for planets and everything on them. The techniques used created a type of roguelike environment on each planet, with the contents randomly distributed. The story network was also one of the earliest examples of a sandbox game design. They created a separate ecosystem generator over the course of two man-years of work. The alien names were created by randomly combining syllables until they had names they liked, and their code for simulating communications was rewritten four times before completion. The game has been widely praised by both contemporary and modern critics. The game has been widely praised by both contemporary and modern critics. It led to the development of a sequel, Starflight 2: Trade Routes of the Cloud Nebula, and influenced the design of numerous other games for decades after its release17th August 2021 – Panda gives birth in Singapore - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-17/giant-panda-gives-birth-in-rare-event-for-endangered-species/100385386 A Chinese giant panda at a Singapore wildlife park has given birth to a cub — the first born in the South-East Asian country and a rare event for an endangered species. Pandas Kai Kai, 13, and Jia Jia, 12, entered their seventh breeding season in April this year with the aid of artificial insemination, after arriving in Singapore in 2012 on a decade-long loan from China. Weighing about 200 grams, the cub was born on Saturday but the sex has yet to be determined, Wildlife Reserves Singapore (WRS) told Reuters, adding mother and cub were doing well. WRS said female giant pandas can display hormonal and behavioural signs of pregnancy even when not pregnant, but the organisation detected signs last month that a cub was on the way and Jia Jia's pregnancy was confirmed on August 10. China has been sending its black and white ambassadors abroad in a sign of goodwill since the 1950s as part of what is known as "panda diplomacy".17th August 2021 – Creator and 'godfather' of Sudoku passes away at 69 - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-17/sudoku-creator-dies/100385554 Maki Kaji, the creator of the popular numbers puzzle Sudoku whose life's work was spreading the joy of puzzles passed away. Known as the "Godfather of Sudoku," Mr Kaji created the puzzle to be easy for children and others who didn't want to think too hard. Its name is made up of the Japanese characters for "number" and "single," and players place the numbers one through nine in rows, columns and blocks without repeating them. Originally, Sudoku was called "Suji-wa-Dokushin-ni-Kagiru," which translates to, "Numbers should be single, a bachelor." It wasn't until 2004 that Sudoku became a global hit, after a fan from New Zealand pitched it and got it published in the British newspaper The Times. In recent years, Sudoku, believed to be the world's most popular pencil puzzle, has come out in digital versions. He was 69 and had bile duct cancer.18th August 2021 – 15th anniversary of Snakes On a Plane - https://gizmodo.com/snakes-on-a-plane-15-years-of-expletive-snakes-and-exp-1847474744Snakes on a Plane was released on August 18, 2006, which means it's celebrating its 15th anniversary this week. However, the film's legacy begins a little before that; in July 2006, Snakes on a Plane took its hilarious title and premise into San Diego Comic-Con and blew the roof off the place. There, fans and bloggers alike were wowed by the gory, fun footage. The event created huge buzz all over the internet and, as a result, people who got their film news online expected it to be an instant cult hit. Then it opened. While it did hit number one on its opening weekend, it barely grossed $14 million on its way to $34 million domestic (and $62 million international), which was way under expectations. The story is credited to David Dalessandro, a University of Pittsburgh administrator and first-time Hollywood writer. He developed the concept in 1992 after reading a nature magazine article about Indonesian brown tree snakes climbing onto planes in cargo during World War II. He originally wrote the screenplay about the brown tree snake loose on a plane, titling the film Venom. He soon revised it, expanding upon the premise to include a plague of assorted venomous snakes, then—crediting the film Aliens—revised it once again to include "lots of them loose in the fuselage of a plane." More than 450 snakes were used for filming to represent 30 different species of snakes. The different species include a 19-foot (5.8 m) Burmese python named Kitty (which the crew called Kong for film purposes), scarlet kingsnake (the non-venomous double for the eastern coral snake), milk snake, corn snakes, rattlesnakes, and mangrove snakes. The scarlet kingsnake and Pueblan milk snake stood in for coral snakes, while another species of milk snake and Florida kingsnake filled the role of the venomous Australian taipan (which attacks the couple having sex and the man using a restroom respectively). About two-thirds of the snakes seen throughout the film were either animatronic or CGI. The snakes that were real were mostly the non-venomous ones that are never seen attacking anyone. The scenes where someone is clearly bitten were often done with a mix of animatronic and animation. According to the DVD, all the snakes had production names, but only Scarface (an animated pit viper), Peanut (a cobra), and Kong are mentioned by name in the audio commentary. During filming, Samuel Jackson did not come into contact with any live snakes, due to a contract clause preventing snakes from being within 8 m (25 ft) of the actor. When the film was released in theaters, "pranksters" released two live western diamondback rattlesnakes at the AMC Desert Ridge 18 theater in Phoenix, Arizona during a showing of the film on August 22, 2006. One snake made its way into the lobby of the theater on its own, the other was found in the parking lot. No one was harmed and the snakes were released back into the desert.Remembrances17th August 2012 – Victor Poor - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_PoorAn American engineer and computer pioneer. At Computer Terminal Corporation (later renamed Datapoint Corporation), he co-created the architecture that was ultimately implemented in the first successful computer microprocessor, the Intel 8008. Subsequently, Computer Terminal Corporation created the first personal computer, the Datapoint 2200 programmable terminal. Poor continued his research and development, trying to develop a method for sending photographs and pictures wirelessly. In 1969 while working his notice period from Frederick Electronics, during the Thanksgiving holiday, Poor and fellow amateur radio colleague Harry Pyle produced the underlying architecture of the modern microprocessor on a living room floor. They then asked fellow radio amateur Jonathan Schmidt to write the accompanying communications software. Pitching the idea to both Texas Instruments and Intel, the partnership developed the Intel 8008, the forerunner of the microprocessor chips found in today's personal and computing devices. In late 1969, Poor joined start-up computer company Computer Terminal Corporation as Technical Director in San Antonio, Texas. Founded by two former NASA engineers, Phil Ray and Gus Roche, they asked him to approach Intel to see how much of his design could fit onto a computer chip. Pitching a $100,000 proposal to place the architecture onto silicon and into production, the project became the Intel 8008 master chip, the world's first 8-bit microprocessor. Poor and Pyle then developed the instruction set architecture which enabled Ray and Roche to design and develop the mass-produced programmable Datapoint 2200 computer terminal. As a result of the success of this product, the company changed its name to Datapoint. Datapoint remained one generation ahead of Intel until the Intel 80286. Overseeing the development of ARCNET by lead ARCNET architect John Murphy, an early local area network, Poor stayed with Datapoint until 1984, after they had lost their technical microchip lead to IBM and been bought out by corporate raiders. Poor died at the age of 79 in Palm Bay, Florida.Famous Birthdays17th August 1896 – Leslie Groves - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_GrovesLieutenant General Leslie Richard Groves Jr. a United States Army Corps of Engineers officer who oversaw the construction of the Pentagon and directed the Manhattan Project, a top secret research project that developed the atomic bomb during World War II. In September 1942, Groves took charge of the Manhattan Project. He was involved in most aspects of the atomic bomb's development: he participated in the selection of sites for research and production at Oak Ridge, Tennessee; Los Alamos, New Mexico; and Hanford, Washington. He directed the enormous construction effort, made critical decisions on the various methods of isotope separation, acquired raw materials, directed the collection of military intelligence on the German nuclear energy project and helped select the cities in Japan that were chosen as targets. Groves wrapped the Manhattan Project in security but failed to prevent the Soviet Union from conducting a successful espionage program that stole some of its most important secrets. After the war, Groves remained in charge of the Manhattan Project until responsibility for nuclear weapons production was handed over to the United States Atomic Energy Commission in 1947. He then headed the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project, which had been created to control the military aspects of nuclear weapons. He was given a dressing down by the Army Chief of Staff, General of the Army Dwight D. Eisenhower, and told that he would never be appointed Chief of Engineers. The Manhattan Engineer District (MED) was formally established by the Chief of Engineers, Major General Eugene Reybold on 16 August 1942. The name was chosen by Groves and MED's district engineer, Colonel James C. Marshall. Like other engineer districts, it was named after the city where its headquarters was located, at 270 Broadway. Unlike the others, however, it had no geographic boundaries, only a mission: to develop an atomic bomb. He was born in Albany, New York.Events of Interest17th August 1978 – Double Eagle II becomes first balloon to cross the Atlantic Ocean when it lands in Miserey, France near Paris, 137 hours after leaving Presque Isle, Maine. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Eagle_II Double Eagle II, piloted by Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson and Larry Newman, became the first balloon to cross the Atlantic Ocean when it landed 17 August 1978 in Miserey near Paris, 137 hours 6 minutes after leaving Presque Isle, Maine.It can be regarded as a successful crossing at the point that the Double Eagle II crossed the Irish coast, on the evening of 16 August, an event that Shannon Airport notified the crew about when it happened. Newman originally intended to hang glide from the balloon to a landing, while Anderson and Abruzzo continued to fly, but the hang-glider had to be dropped as ballast earlier on 16 August. While flying over France, they heard by radio that authorities had closed Le Bourget Airfield, where Charles Lindbergh had landed, for them. The crew declined the offer as they were running out of ballast and it would be too risky (to themselves and anyone below) to pass over the suburbs of Paris. They landed in a field of barley, owned by Roger and Rachel Coquerel, in Miserey, 60 mi (97 km) northwest of Paris. Television images showed a highway nearby, its shoulders and outer lanes crowded with stopped cars, people sweeping across the farm field to the landing spot. The gondola was protected, but most of the logs and charts were stolen by souvenir hunters. The flight, the fourteenth known attempt, was the culmination of more than a century of previous attempts to cross the Atlantic Ocean by balloon. Some of the people who had attempted it were never found. Larry Newman won a draw among the three to sleep in the same bed at the United States Embassy that Lindbergh slept in. British balloonists Don Cameron and Christopher Davey feted the trio at a party that included a balloon shaped like the Double Eagle II. The trio and their wives planned to return to the United States aboard the supersonic Concorde. Upon the successful crossing, the trip was accommodated by Air France at no charge to the trio and spouses.17th August 1939- Buck Rogers premiered in Portugal - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032290/ On this day in 1939 (in Portugal), Buck Rogers took a trip into the future after waking up from a long sleep. Here's the plot summary: "A 20th Century pilot named Buck Rogers and his young friend Buddy Wade awake from 500 years in suspended animation to find that the world has been taken over by the outlaw army of Killer Kane." In the original comic strip, Buck Rogers is actually a former World War One pilot who was working as a mine surveyor at the time he came to fall into his long (500 years long) sleep. For some reason, the regulations would not allow the screenwriters to use the comic strip's continuity, so the serial is actually a completely original story with the comic strip characters added. The character of Killer Kane was changed, too: in the original strip, his real name was Oba Kane, he had a twin brother named Nova and a pistol called "Baby". He also had a girlfriend named Ardala Valmar. The regulations would not allow any of this background to be used, either: instead, Oba "Killer" Kane is presented as the despotic ruler of a future Earth. This serial is probably based on an unofficial Flash Gordon story in which Flash Gordon travels to Saturn; this story was not and has never been part of the original Flash Gordon universe (it was illegally published in 1936). After the serial came out, a second origin appeared in the comic strip in which Buck fell into a crater while looking for a meteor made from impervium, an indestructible metal used in the making of spaceships. Due to having hit the meteor when he fell in, Buck released the gas from inside and it put him to sleep for 500 years, only to be found by scientists and awakened. Again, this origin took place on Earth and not in space. There was a character in the strip who was in stasis in a satellite for 500 years, but his name was Dr. Laika; the story was inspired by the launch of Sputnik II. This is the origin story used in Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (1979). Henry Brandon hoped to play chief villain Killer Kane but was cast as Kane's henchman Captain Laska instead. When Brandon complained to his agent about this he was told, "The lead heavy works for one day, the henchman works for three weeks. Which part did you say you wanted again?" The film takes place in 1938 and 2440.

Pek Pongpaet, your host, spoke with Joshua Tsui, the co-founder and CEO of Robomodo, in this episode. Josh's career began in 1993 at Midway Games, where he assisted in the development of WWF WrestleMania The Arcade Game. Before leaving Midway in 1999, he also worked on Mortal Kombat. He and a few colleagues formed Studio Gigante, which worked on Microsoft Game Studios' Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus and THQ's WWE WrestleMania 21. Josh's next move was to EA Chicago in 2005, where he worked on the Fight Night series. When EA Chicago closed in 2007, Josh and his colleagues decided it was time to start a new studio: Robomodo, which has since released three games for Activision: Tony Hawk Ride, Tony Hawk Shred, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD. Pek talks to Josh about his gaming career, how he got started, and what it's like to run a company. They also talk about the documentary Insert Coin, which tells the story of Midway Studios from behind the scenes.

We set the game in its time (and its crowded month) and talk about its license, how that compares with D&D in particular, and the opening moments of the game. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Into Santa Monica Issues covered: our interview with Glenn Corpes, 2004 and especially November of that year, stiff competition, shipping on an untested engine, what engine support one can expect, the costs of building your own engine, delays in engine/game development, shipping Steam at the same time, why Valve isn't more of an engine company, founding and fall of Troika, the studio's earlier games, the full implementation of D&D 3.5, save-scumming through a final battle, the consolidation of RPGs under Microsoft Game Studios, southern California game developers, a differing style of tabletop RPG, lesser emphasis on statistics, heavier melodrama with more role-play focus, politics and diplomacy, ending the world of White Wolf, a modern setting, vampires living among us, "classic" settings in D&D, Dark Sun/Eberron side settings, a question of being less timeless, tying into a very specific aesthetic and time and place, anti-heroic settings and edginess, the Storyteller System, mission goals for small numbers of XP rather than around skill uses and cleverness, cinematic combat in tabletop, focus on intrigue, Greyhawk/The Forgotten Realms, timelessness in settings, the White Wolf MMO, the options for character creation, multiple-choice questions, vampire clans/archetypes, dancing around what we were picking, ending as Nosferatu, vampires as an analogy for disease, being staked and stunned, a big world-building moment, Camarilla vs Sabbat, a theater of the undead, the niche nature of the World of Darkness, not necessarily wanting to pick a Nosferatu, possibly feeling like a different game based on clan, the horror of becoming like Tim, designing a question system for RPG character creation, tournament selection and classes, points-based questions and answers, attributes: physical/social/mental, abilities: talents/skills/knowledges, feats as combinations of attributes and abilities, vampire magic as disciplines, experience points as skill trees purchases, not being able to have it all, the high quality of Smiling Jack as a focus and as a world-builder, various skills to introduce, learning powers and having multiple tutorial paths based on clan, simple passive tutorializations, watching a loop of the TV or listening to the radio, how much we both love LA. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Glenn Corpes, Populous, Kotaku Splitscreen, LucasArts, KotOR 2, Doom 3, Fable, Sly 2, Spider-Man 2, Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal, Jak 3, Pikmin 2, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Beyond Divinity, Baldur's Gate 3, Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault, Everquest II, World of Warcraft, Half-Life 2, Halo 2, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, Counterstrike (Source), Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, Bejewelled 2, Epic, Unreal, Valve, Respawn, id Software, Deus Ex, Troika, Tim Cain, Leonard Boyarsky, Fallout (series), Interplay, Jason Anderson, Temple of Elemental Evil, Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, Bethesda Game Studios, TES V: Skyrim, Andrew Meggs, Shadowrun, Dungeons & Dragons, Obsidian Entertainment, The Outer Worlds, inXile, Wasteland 2, Brian Fargo, The Bard's Tale, The Village of Hommlet, White Wolf, John Stafford, Crystal Dynamics, Call of Cthulhu, Werewolf: The Apocalypse, Mage: The Ascension, Wraith: The Oblivion, Mummy: The Resurrection, Gary Gygax, Lord of the Rings, Anne Rice, Wizards of the Coast, Twilight (series), The Matrix, Ray Gresko, Richard Garfield, CCP, Ultima (series), What We Do in the Shadows, Nosferatu, System Shock 2, Ubisoft, Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Danny Trejo, Tom Cruise, Interview with the Vampire, AwwwwwYeeeaah, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers. Next time: Through Downtown Note: White Wolf Publishing became defunct in 2018. We were unaware, which may speak to its niche nature. Errata: Nosferatu was 1922 and it is Count Orlok. Count Orloff/Orlov is a figure in Russian history. Twitter: @timlongojr and @devgameclub, Twitch: brettdouville, instagram:timlongojr, DevGameClub@gmail.com

El mes de junio ha empezado muy fuerte, en muchos lugares el coronavirus va dando un respiro, las compañías ya se van adaptando a la situación actual y nos están regalando decenas de eventos para que vayamos descubriendo todas las novedades relacionadas con el mundo del videojuego. A principios de mayo tuvimos un Inside Xbox donde poder ver los primeros juegos de Xbox Series X, aunque para los first party de los Microsoft Game Studios habrá que esperar hasta julio, y también a principios de junio íbamos a tener la presentación de PS5 y sus primeros juegos, un evento planificado para el día 4 pero que el asesinato de George Floyd en EEUU lo retrasó hasta el pasado día 11. Hubo tanto que comentar que hemos querido dedicar el Décimo Programa de la Tercera Temporada de nuestro podcast.

After recently revisiting Age of Empires 2 (HD edition) it made me realise that this game is a cultural milestone and something that makes the discipline of History more interactive and exciting for hundreds of thousands of people. For more than 20 Years the game continues to thrive and somehow still add elements of novelty. Hope you enjoy the video. No copyright infringement intended. Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition,Age of Kings, Age of Conquerors, The African Kingdoms, The Forgotten Kingdoms, Rise of the Rajas copyright is owned by their respective owners which includes but is not limited to Xbox Game Studios. I did not make the game (or assets) and do not claim to. I do claim recording the gameplay and associated commentary. Also I am not affiliated in any way with Microsoft Game Studios, Xbox Game Studios or any other game developer and have not been paid to promote this game. I am just a history enthusiast and fan grateful for the game and what it represented and still represents to millions of people.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps ist das neue Metroidvania-Spiel von Microsoft Game Studios. Moon Studios-Chefentwickler Thomas Mahler erzählt Andreas und Sandro über den Entstehungsprozess hinter dem Ori and the Blind Forest-Nachfolger, während Andreas euch einen Part aus Ori and the Will of the Wisps vorspielt. Homeoffice ist nämlich nichts Neues für Moon Studios, da ehemalige Mitarbeiter von Disney, Blizzard, Weta Digital (Herr der Ringe) und mehr schon seit Jahren von zu Hause aus an dem Titel arbeiteten. Wie sah dieser Schaffungsprozess aus? Welche Herausforderungen gab es? Und wer ist eigentlich für die fantastische Musik verantwortlich? All das und noch mehr erfahrt ihr in unserem Talk mit Thomas Mahler.

Folge 5 versucht wieder mal zu ergründen, was Aufbaumusik eigentlich sein soll. Dafür läuft auf der einen Seite die Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition, die 2019 von Todd Masten und der Semitone Media Group komplett neu remastered wurde. Das Spiel selbst ist von 1999 (Microsoft Game Studios) und der Score wurde von Stephen Rippy, David Rippy und Kevin McMullan komponiert. Auf der anderen Seite beruhigen die mittelalterlichen Klänge von Europa 4 Universalis (Paradox Development Studio) aus dem Jahr 2013 den geneigten Aufbauer. Komponiert von Andreas Waldetoft und eingespielt vom Brandenburgischen Staatsorchester Frankfurt (BSOF) klingt dieser Soundtrack wie eine Zeitreise ins Jahr 1444.

Som en lidt speciel episode har vi anmeldt den nye YouTube-serie GG Horsens, som er produceret af Wasabi Film for TV SYD og TV2 Østjylland. Serien omhandler en kvindelig jurastuderende, der kæmper for at opfylde sin gamerdrøm. Julie Zangenberg, Jonas Schmidt, Andreas Bo, Niels Olsen og YouTuberen Morten Münster er bl.a. på rollelisten. Trods vi ikke just er målgruppen, kastede vi os over seriens første tre afsnit, mens vi sniffede en CULT fra stuebordet (yup, det er en scene i serien...). Umiddelbart er vi ikke fuld af lovord om seriens stereotyper, det haltende manuskript og Hayden Christensen-værdige skuespilspræstationer, men værdsætter seriens forsøg på at udfordre kønstraditionerne inden for gaming. Vi høres på åen! Forresten... Vi er på Twitter: @streamaaen. Og Facebook: www.facebook.com/streamaaen. Kontakt os gerne: streamaaen@gmail.com. Bag podcasten står Peter Vistisen, Tobias Iskov Thomsen og Anders Zimmer Hansen - alle tidligere musicalstjerner med under-middel Moskva-dialekter. Yderligere noter Citater fra film: GG Horsens (Wasabi Film, TV SYD, TV2 Østjylland), The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Bethesda Game Studios, Bethesda Softworks - Composer: Jeremy Soule), Super Mario World (Nintendo EAD, Nintendo - Composer: Koji Kondo), Street Fighter (Capcom, Arika), Half-Life (Valve, Sierra Studios), Age of Empires 3 (Microsoft Game Studios, MacSoft & Destineer, Glu - Composer: Stephen Rippy), StarCraft (Blizzard Entertainment), World of Warcraft (Blizzard Entertainment), Doom (id Software)

Before something like the Xbox could ever hope to exist, Microsoft first needed to learn how to be a successful games publisher on the PC. This is the story — or part of it — of how Microsoft got games, featuring input from four key Microsoft Game Studios people — Ed Fries, Stuart Moulder, Ed Ventura, Jon Kimmich — and Age of Empires co-creator Rick Goodman. Support comes from my Patreon and PayPal backers, with special credit going to Wade Tregaskis, Simon Moss, and Vivek Mohan. Thanks fellas! Original scoring and sound design by me. While I fully intend on covering more of the Microsoft games story in future, if you'd like to learn more there are a couple of books by veteran games and tech journalist Rusel DeMaria. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1976455170/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1976455170&linkCode=as2&tag=lifeandtim07a-20&linkId=a20e0dc1b5f5ac0c2bb100dc43139e7d (Game of X volume 1) delves into the Xbox, while https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/197808837X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=lifeandtim07a-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=197808837X&linkId=41ff0ca21d7fe7a7422469a2fb886207 (volume 2) looks at the backstory before Xbox.

I've been having some trouble finishing the script for episode 12, on Microsoft's pre-Xbox games efforts, so while you wait I thought I'd release some bonus material. First up, here's a new soundbite. This is from my interview with Jon Kimmich, who worked as a "product planner" and "program manager" in Microsoft's games group in the late 1990s and then in Microsoft Game Studios until 2004. He's since continued to work in bizdev roles in the games industry and has lots of fascinating insights (I posted a different quote on Twitter during the week). Here's his LinkedIn profile, in case you're curious: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jon-kimmich-7094501/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jon-kimmich-7094501/) Here he tells us about knowing when a game has that "magic" that means it's going to be a hit, with Halo and Age of Empires as examples.http://patreon.com/lifeandtimesofvideogames (Support The Life & Times of Video Games) Learn more about your ad choices.

Now Playing - Dylan returns with tales of Pokémon GO and Pokémon Moon, including raiding stories and how he caught an awesome Zapdos. Ryan gushes about his love for StarCraft Remastered, with one glaring exception: The audio wasn't remastered to go along with the slick graphics. Watch his play through of all 10 campaigns on Twitch and YouTube! News - With Sonic Mania releasing to rave reviews this week, we discuss the intersection between fans and developers, and how that relationship can be fostered for the betterment of the industry. Nintendo is notorious for taking down fan projects, but that doesn't mean hope is lost for the developers, with some moving on to careers at Microsoft Game Studios, EA and more. Competitive Corner - Dylan vents some frustration about the latest Hearthstone expansion, Knights of the Frozen Throne. Should the meta be driven by who gets their Death Knight transformation card first? Ryan drops some knowledge about competitive Lúcioball, and talks about his hopes of a competitive Mystery Heroes bracket in the future. Meanwhile the LCS heats up with its final couple weeks of the season, and Super Smash Con brings style to the forefront of the competitive scene.

Cheryl Vance and Joel Styles are developers of the soon so be released Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles.  Yonder is a gentle and friendly open world game releasing on Steam and Playstation 4 on Tuesday 18 of July! While we had them they shared what it is like to develop a game with a unique soft style and an adventure experience with no combat involved, while drawing on the open world games you played when you were young. An article by Nathan Birch got us thinking about the target audiences of our favourite consoles. Phil Harrison formerly of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe & Microsoft Game Studios said “I think Sony has done a great job in making Playstation 4 very popular. What I wonder about, and maybe worry about a little bit, is that (both Microsoft and Sony) are they growing the market? Are they building and investing in the content and broadening the experiences to bring in more players?" This prompted us to take a closer look at console demographics, who is playing what, and and who is it being targeted at?

In this week's podcast, QCon chair Wes Reisz and Werner Schuster talk to Caitie McCaffrey. McCaffrey works on distributed systems with the engineering effectiveness team at Twitter, and has experience building the large scale services and systems that power the entertainment industry at 343 Industries, Microsoft Game Studios, and HBO. McCaffrey's presentation at QCon New York was called The Verification of a Distributed System. Why listen to this podcast: - Twitter's engineering effectiveness team aims to help make dev tools better, and make developers happier and more efficient. - Asking someone to speak at your conference or join your team solely because of their gender does more harm than people think. - There is not one prescriptive way to make good, successful technology. - Even when we don't have time for testing, there are options to increase your confidence in your system. - The biggest problem when running a unit test is that it is only testing the input you hard code into the unit test. Notes and links can be found on http://bit.ly/2al6BRp Engineering Effectiveness 1:24 - The purpose of the engineering effectiveness team is to help make dev tools better, and to make Twitter's developers happier and more efficient. 2:44 - The team is trying to make infrastructure so that not every team has to solve the distributed problem on their own, and give developers some APIs and tools so that they can build systems easily.
