Not to mention EA Sports in BC, Eidos Montreal (Dues Ex), THQ Montreal and Relic in BC.

UltimateSin5731d ago

Also Rockstar Toronto, nicely tucked away in Oakville, aboot 10 minutes drive from my place.

corneliuscrust5730d ago

now has a huge studio in Toronto as well

AlienFodder5730d ago (Edited 5730d ago )

And EA also have offices here in Montreal. I remember speaking to a guy who works for them back in January and he had confirmed to me that Mass Effect would be released for the PS3 next year.

disagrees are AMERICANS who mad that they lost against canada at the 2010 Winter Olympics.

darx5731d ago

for the summer Olympics.

Leathersoup5731d ago

Silly darx.. there's no Hockey in the summer Olympics.

dinkeldinkse5731d ago

About Canada beating us in Hockey, Canada's hockey team is much more talented than the US hockey team. The talent difference is probably not on the same level as the US basketball team compared to the rest of the world, but it is still enough that the US shouldn't be expected to beat Canada by my fellow Americans.

On topic, Canada has some excellent developers and anybody that would say otherwise is a moron.

No FanS Land5731d ago (Edited 5731d ago )

hell yeah! I live about 30-40 minutes from montreal. Big load of development here, but one of the biggest incentive is the income tax credit, especially in the province of quebec. You know it's rather strange when ubi montreal is bigger in size and employees than that of its headquarters in France.

I've seen once where ubisoft mtl is located. It's not really an inviting neiborghood, but inside it's like an old condo/loft with wooden floors. Pretty cool.

Solid_Snakeps35730d ago (Edited 5730d ago )

Bioware are Canadian? Didn't know that

lzim5730d ago (Edited 5730d ago )

exactly (@read Original thread post)(and @people being ignorant of how many industry leaders are in Canada, especially montreal), if it weren't for the fuckups at Silicon Knights (with the utmost respect, meaning they need to not overestimate hardware and software platforms, or that they have an audience for whatever they put out there) and Koei TO not releasing anything recently.. hint hint.. wink wink.. aww.. who am I kidding, no one else wants Fatal Inertia 2, 3D, open world....

Canadian and British developers are among the best.

lzim5730d ago

Yeah if only EA would have left them alone.. Activision + Rare/Lionhead FTW, instead they are making kiddie games... so sad. I mean Just look how activision saved Bizarre.. :P mm blur.

Are you aware that both of you exist thanks to europeans? Calling yourselves names is a joke.

thematrix12985730d ago

America vs Canada is a internal family matter...you European need to stay out of this :)

lzim5730d ago

yeah pity Australia is so far away and basically out of the game dev spotlight.. or we could make fun of them too.

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic222106d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl2106d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

2105d ago
MadLad2106d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic222106d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin2106d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv722106d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad2106d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod882106d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX2106d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking822106d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18892106d ago

haha yes it may....good one.

The paddle bat and string ball from Fallout should be considered too.

Chaos_Order2169d ago

I would've included Tira's ring blade from Soul Calibur.
