Garrett Glass of The Koalition writes:
SGC had plenty of indie games that show great potential. Each of them offered new, exciting, and challenging experiences that the mainstream sometimes fails to deliver. But the crew at ScrewAttack also invited some talented game design students from the University of Texas Dallas you dig deeper, you can find game design students who also show great potential and can compete on even footing with the rest of the indie developers-- and they probably earned them good grades as well. I had the opportunity to speak with a group of talented game design students from the University of Texas at Dallas who created Multiverse, a platformer akin to NES classics and Super Meat Boy but with its own twist.

| Batman: Arkham Origins Doesn't Feature Kevin Conroy After All
Added: 12.06.2013 0:18 | 10 views | 0 comments
Joystiq: ''After some confusion, we've clarified Kevin Conroy doesn't feature in Batman: Arkham Origins at all. Origins Senior Producer Ben Mattes told Joystiq, "We've got Roger Craig Smith, he's our Batman. Troy Baker, he's our Joker. Kevin Conroy, he's not part of this game."
Initial reports indicated long-time Batman voice actor Conroy wasn't in Origins. He then announced at the recent Dallas Comic Con that he'd been working on "the next Arkham" game. Shortly after, Craig Smith was officially unveiled as Origins' younger Batman, leading to speculation Conroy might be involved in some kind of retrospective role.''

| Zynga to cut 520 jobs

Social game giant laying off 18 percent of its workforce in an effort to reduce costs; offices in four cities closed; company to offer "generous" severance packages.
Social game giant Zynga is cutting 520 jobs--or 18 percent of its workforce--in an effort to reduce costs and re-focus around mobile, the studio announced today.
The layoffs will affect every arm of the San Francisco, California-based company and will total $80 million in staff costs.
The workforce reduction will take place across all functions of Zynga's business and is expected to be mostly completed by August.
The move will result in the closure of Zynga's offices in New York, Los Angeles, Austin, and Dallas and also includes the "slashing of other major infrastructure costs," according to The Wall Street Journal's .
In a --called the layoffs "painful," but also necessary if the company is to succeed going forward.
"None of us ever expected to face a day like today, especially when so much of our culture has been about growth. But I think we all know this is necessary to move forward," Pincus said.
"The scale that served us so well in building and delivering the leading social gaming service on the Web is now making it hard to successfully lead across mobile and multiplatform, which is where social games are going to be played," he added.
Pincus said the staff reduction and company reorganization represents a "proactive commitment" to the company's mission of "connecting the world through games."
"By reducing our cost structure today we will offer our teams the runway they need to take risks and develop these breakthrough new social experiences," he said.
Because Zynga is making these moves today, Pincus said, the company is able to offer "generous" severance packages that demonstrate the firm's appreciation for their time and effort.
"I want to thank every one of you for the spirit, creativity and energy that you've invested in Zynga," Pincus said. "You've reintroduced a generation of people to gaming and through these games offered them new ways to connect with their families, make new friends and even sometimes find love."
