End of blogs!!!!!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!

Week 24 - Feedback!!!

Final Week......YAY!!!!!!!!!

Now time for some Feedback.

First thing I like to say is to remember that 'Electronics games technology' still exist even though you try to ignore us. Like talking about my first year as a 'Artist'. Completely useless for my course.

I also don't like the blogs. It was just a case of surfing the net and writing about my findings along with opinion. We could of just got told at the start of the year to write a gigantic essay about the gaming industry to then be handed in at the end of the year.

I would like to have played some old games while we covered the History bit. That would have been cool. In other words, I would of like this module to be more hands on. So on the bit about different controllers, we would be able to play with other controllers and say how they have improved though the year.

As a tech student, there is very little that I can say I liked about this module. The only thing is liked about this module is that there were very few lectures, but the ones we did have just DULL! And this is probably because lectures were again not mean't for my course.

I know that I probably sound like a gumpy old man but I can't help being annoyed, and you must understand why.

Now to the CELEBRATIONS!!........WOO HOOOOOOO!!!!!!!


Week 23 - Nothing!!!!!!

YAY Week off........

time to chill............
relax.......................
play games............

Week 22 - GDC conference (anything about it)!!!

Well this week is to write anythign about the GDC conference that interests me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I want to talk about the capabilities of Online gaming.

Most of us know online gaming to be counterstrike-source, World of Warcraft, Mario kart or Fifa but it could be so much more...........

Online gaming can be used to expand single palyer games. So games like Super Mario could have an extra 340 levels online because the game disc couldn't hold enough info. And you could expand this so that after you have collected a number of stars or completed a number of levels, then you could be able to download some extra levels. This then means that games developers cannot argue about making games too short, visually rubbish because 'the disc was full'!!! This could destroy games developers who fail to make proper games (like EA making games from films).

Another one is Street Fighter online. Why the hell is fighting games like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter not been made into a online game??? To be able to play fighting games against otherpeople on the net would make the best online games EVER. They wouldn't need a massive bandwidth to play because there are just two characters. This could also make the most addictive game of all time. Capcom and Midway are missing out on big money making ideas.

One final this I would like is to play Online handheld games anywhere. I always have to connect my DS to a wireless station to go online. If only consoles would work like Mobile Phones so you can get connected anywhere. It would be also be cool if you can play online games on a plane.

Online gaming has come a long way in the past few years but it has still got a way to go!!!!!!
