Disney Interactive Studios has announced that it has agreed to buy Wideload Studios. as part of the agreement, Wideload Games Founder and CEO Alexander Seropian will Join Disney Interactive Studio's in the newly created role of vice president of creative. Alexander Seropian was the founder Bungie Software and one of the creators of the Halo series.

Press Release

BURBANK, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Sep 08, 2009 Disney Interactive Studios announced today it has agreed to acquire Wideload Games Inc., a Chicago-based producer and developer of original interactive entertainment. As part of the agreement, industry veteran and creative visionary Alexander Seropian, Wideload Games founder and CEO, will join Disney Interactive Studios in the newly created role of vice president of creative, leading the company’s global creative efforts. Seropian, who is relocating to Glendale, Calif., is renowned as the founder of Bungie Software and was among the creators of the highly successful Halo® series – one of the most successful video game franchises of all time. Seropian will report directly to Global Product Development Senior Vice President Jean-Marcel Nicolai, and be tasked with overseeing creative development across Disney Interactive Studios’ portfolio of video games.

“Wideload Games is among the premier small creative game development studios in the world. Wideload Games will be a great fit for our portfolio of internal studios, and Alex joining the global product development team provides the entire Disney game portfolio with a strong creative influence,” said Graham Hopper, executive vice president and general manager, Disney Interactive Studios. “Alex has built his reputation around the power of original thinking. In leading the studio that created Halo, he helped turn great storytelling, exceptional design and polished gameplay into the ‘killer app’ for Xbox. Alex’s leadership of our creative community will enhance our ability to be a magnet for the best talent in the industry and enable the company to take an even more significant role in developing industry leading products.”

Seropian began his career in 1991 as founder and CEO of Bungie Software, which created the Marathon and Mythcomputer game series. Seven years later, Bungie Software made the Inc. 500 list of the fastest-growing private U.S. companies. In 2000, Seropian negotiated the acquisition of Bungie Software by Microsoft Corp., and then oversaw the development, production and delivery of the critically acclaimed and highly successful game, Halo, the flagship title for the 2001 launch of the Xbox® video game system from Microsoft. In 2003, Seropian founded Wideload Games, which has released the games: Stubbs the Zombie™ in Rebel Without a Pulse™, Hail to the Chimp™,Texas Cheat ’Em™ andCyclomite.

“Joining Disney is an ideal next step, both for our studio and me,” Seropian said. “At Wideload, we’ve conscientiously built a forward-looking approach to game development that borrows many techniques from the film industry. Now, Wideload will be a part of one of the largest, most respected entertainment companies in the world. I’m looking forward to Wideload’s continued success as a part of Disney and I’m eager to bring all my experience to the creative community at Disney Interactive Studios.”

Wideload Games president Tom Kang will continue to lead the studio as studio director. As part of Disney Interactive Studios’ network of global internal development teams, Wideload Games will focus on creating new intellectual properties for Disney that target a broad audience. The studio, which will remain in its current Chicago location, is developing an unannounced original family console game scheduled for release in 2010 from Disney Interactive Studios.

Wideload’s focus will continue to be developing original video game properties using an innovative development approach that requires developing prototypes with small core creative teams and ramping up for product development with globally outsourced talent. To complement its console team and expand its portfolio of original intellectual properties, Wideload Games established Wideload Shorts in 2007 for the emerging online and handheld platforms. As part of Disney Interactive Studios, Wideload Shorts will continue to create original properties for casual, downloadable and mobile games.

Founded in 2003, Wideload Games’ core team of 25 full-time employees is comprised of many industry veterans and executives, including former Bungie Software personnel. In 2006, Tom Kang joined Wideload Games as president. Kang previously was president and CEO of CSMG Inc., one of the fastest growing sports management firms in the United States, which was acquired by Interpublic Group and Creative Artists Agency.

Terms of the agreement will not be disclosed.

What Have You Played This Week?

i haven't played much this week, don't really know where all the time has gone to be honest. i must really get through SOS so i can get a new rented game out.

Football Manager 09 – PC – Still going strong. I've been playing as San Marino, the club not the nation though they both do share the same name, location and stadium. It's interesting as I don't really try out the Italian leagues much.

SOS: the Final Escape – PS2 – still making my way through the story. The story is actually turning out to be really good, just a shame its wrapped round a broken game. Did come across one part where it was broken which was a shame, but it didn't matter in the end. Also, they dealt with death in a very sensitive way, very in keeping with the story so far, which added to the game.

Fat Princess – PS3 – Still getting in games here and there. What surprises me is how after all this time, people still don't seem to know what to do or know the layout of the levels. On the plus side, it does make me and a few others look really good and give us high scores as we try to save/win the match.

What have you been playing this week? feel free to add your weeks gaming selection in the comments, or comment on my selection for this week

Taito has announced that they have released Bust-A-Move (Puzzle Bobble) on iPhone and iPod Touch worldwide. the game costs US$4.99, EUR3.99, JPY600, and £2.99.

The game features a new control option called Sling Shot, taking advantage of the iPhones touch capabilities. the game also uses Bluetooth for a VS Mode, but also comes with a story mode which has 180 stages. the game also has a challenge mode which can randomly generate stages.

Press Release

Action Puzzle Classic Released to iPhone and iPod touch Users Worldwide
LOS ANGELES (September 3, 2009) — TAITO Corporation (TAITO®), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Square Enix Holdings Co., Ltd., today announced the worldwide release of the beloved puzzle action game BUST-A-MOVE® (known as PUZZLE BOBBLE® outside of North America) to the Apple® App Store™ for iPhone® and iPod® touch.

Action puzzle game BUST-A-MOVE has benefited from considerable popularity since its initial arcade release in 1994, with subsequent home console editions enjoying consistently strong sales worldwide. While the game's mechanics are simple—link three or more identical bubbles to clear them from the screen—a great degree of skill and strategy (banking shots off walls, erasing several bubbles at once, etc.) are required to gain a truly high score. It is this depth that is the secret of BUST-A-MOVE's enduring appeal.

A BUST-A-MOVE Series First: Sling Shot Play!
This edition of BUST-A-MOVE includes two different control options: Tap Shot, in which a bubble is launched in the direction tapped, and the pull and release Sling Shot method. New to the BUST-A-MOVE series, this Sling Shot mode is both perfectly suited to the iPhone's capabilities and an innovative way to enjoy the game.

Packed with iPhone-Specific Features and Stunning Updated Graphics!
This edition boasts a number of features created especially for the iPhone, including a VS. Mode--making full use of the new iPhone OS 3.0 Bluetooth® capabilities--and a rich Story Mode. Chronicling Bub's quest to rescue best friend Chack'n's captured family from a series of Magic Domes, the deluxe Story Mode follows the adventurous pair as they visit six Domes and complete a total of 180 stages. This release also includes the potentially endless, random-bubble generating Challenge Mode.

TAITO will continue to release high-quality games that take full advantage of the iPhone and iPod touch's individual characteristics.

Flipnote Studio Instructions And Some Popular User Created Examples

I included 5 of the more popular user created examples of what can be created using the software. some are drawn, some are pictures, some are very detailed, whilst some are simple. most are in Japanese, as Flipnote studio came out there first, and some finish rather abruptly, due to size limitations.

You can head to http://flipnote.hatena.com to view more user created animations with Flipnote Studio.

Instructions

Flipnote Studio provides users with simple tools that let them draw and save a series of images to create an animation reminiscent of flipping through a notepad. Flipnote Studio makes it easy for anyone to jump in and create animations, regardless of their artistic abilities.

Here's how it works: Users draw an image on the touch screen of the Nintendo DSi system. When they are ready to draw the next image in the sequence, Flipnote Studio shows an outline of the previous image as a reference. Once all the images are in place, the software can animate them as a creation called a Flipnote. People can add sound to their Flipnotes using the built-in microphone or using sounds they previously recorded in the Nintendo DSi Sound application. Or they can import photos as black and white images from the Nintendo DSi Camera album.

The results can be comical, dramatic or experimental. Once people become registered users of Hatena's Web site at http://flipnote.hatena.com, they can then upload their finished creations to the Flipnote Hatena site, operated by Hatena Co. Ltd, where others can view their creations – Nintendo DSi owners can even download other people's Flipnotes from Flipnote Hatena and then modify them to create their own unique works. Users can also share their Flipnotes using the Nintendo DSi local wireless feature and save their Flipnotes to an SD Card (sold separately) for easy storage.

Super Mario Bros.

Fact Sheet

A Classic Mario Adventure that Everyone Can Enjoy – at the Same Time
Developers at Nintendo have dreamed of creating a simultaneous multiplayer Super Mario
Bros.™ game for decades. The Wii console finally makes that dream come true for everyone
this holiday season. Now players can navigate the side-scrolling worlds alone as before or
invite up to three others to join them at the same time on the same level at any point in the
game for competitive and cooperative multiplayer fun. With the multiplayer mode, the newest
installment of the most popular video game franchise is designed to bring yet another type of
family entertainment into living rooms and engage groups of friends in fast-paced Super
Mario Bros. Fun.

FEATURES:

• Mario™, Luigi™ and two Toads are all playable characters, while many others from the Mushroom Kingdom make appearances throughout the game. Players can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues to swallow enemies – or their fellow players.
• In some areas, players use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote™ controller. The first player to reach a seesaw might make it tilt to help his or her character reach a higher platform – and then tilt it incorrectly just to mess with other players.
• New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high into the sky with just a shake of the Wii Remote and Mario’s new ability to transform into Penguin Mario.
• At the end of each stage during the simultaneous multiplayer mode, players are ranked based on their score, the coins collected and the number of enemies defeated.

• Link has a valuable new companion. While navigating dungeons, he’s accompanied by a Phantom, a hulking suit of armor that responds to his commands. Players can tap the Phantom to take command of him, then draw a line on the touch screen to direct him where to go. The stout Phantom can walk through fire or lava, be used as a platform to carry Link above dangers, or even run interference to block Link from harm.

• When Link conducts the train, players enjoy a satisfying combination of action and real-time puzzle solving as they determine which track to take and how to best manipulate their speed. When on the train, Link must plot the best route to the end of the line around ever-moving obstacles. While en route, Link might need to fire an onboard cannon at enemies who attack the train or sound the whistle to scare animals off the tracks.

• Link uses a variety of new items and weapons, including the Whirlwind, which players activate by blowing into the microphone of the Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi™ system.

• As with The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, players can draw notes on the in-game maps using the stylus on the touch screen.
