| Computer Gaming has changed. From its lowly 6-bit and 8-bit beginings, photo realistic graphics are know the norm, and any less is shunned. This change has happened over the small period of about 20 or so years. Before the 80's there were no games at all (WHAT! how did people waste their time!?!?). Gaming has however also reached its peak and started to decline. Gone are the days when new games came every month and they were all good, at the turn of the century games started being made which were, well rubbish. Although games now have replyability, some suck, really bad. And inspired by "The Decline of Video Gaming" and my mates, I have deduced a theory.... Games developers are divided between EVIL devlopers and GOOD devlopers. Sort of a Darkside, Lightside kinda thing. The Organisation is as follows: DARKSIDE: Headed by three evil masters: Square Enix Konami Capcom These three developers are the most evil of all. owning great franchises such as "FF" and "Resident Evil", makes them able to create havok by bringing out games under the false prentence of a good sequal, or a new bold idea, when actually they are just ruining an existing game, or copying an idea. This aside, these developers must make decent games every so often to asure there sucess. Other Darksiders include EA Games (good games like The Sims and MOH are killed by add-ons and lack of inivation, and the sport games always have short comings) Lucas Arts (Starwars man! how can you only make one good starwars games a year!) SCI (the games usually suck, are two far apart, and are all childish) LIGHTSIDE: Headed by the samaritans of: Namco Rockstar Ubisoft Activision THQ Constantly putting effort into great games, these gods among developers create great game, after great game. When they do occasionally slip up, the apoligise, and make the sequal ten times better. With vast appeal and franchises such as GTA, Tekken, and Smackdown. these five beacons of design lord over gaming. But with these developers, greater ones exist. Ones who lay dormant, in wait, ready to unlease a brilliant five star game every year and a half. These include... Lionhead (peter, you genius, Black and White ROCKED and the second one, WOW) Atari (you started me playing games, and you keep me playing) Natsume (the games are all adictive, like drugs, but cheaper) |
