Canadian developers Digital Extremes and Silicon Knights are to receive CAD 1 million in funding from the Ontario Media Development Corporation, for prototypes of new videogame concepts.
Silicon Knights' Denis Dyack has said that he believes "justice will be done" when his company's case against Epic Games over an alleged lack of Unreal Engine 3 support is heard.
Silicon Knights' Denis Dyack says that increased competition between Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo is among a number of factors that mean a unified console format is inevitable - and soon.
Epic Games is counter-suing Silicon Knights, accusing the Too Human developer of attempting to "take Epic's licensed technology, pay nothing for it, and use it any way it pleases."
"I don't care how good the game is," Silicon Knights president Denis Dyack tells gi.biz, "I don't want to play something that's one hundred hours long."
Silicon Knights boss Denis Dyack has told <i>GamesIndustry.biz</i> that the industry must change its marketing practices and adopt a method similar to that seen in Hollywood, if it hopes to stop throwing away money and development time.
