Puzzle Pirates Shows Indie Developers Can Succeed in the MMO Market
2009-09-10 00:00:00
With the video games industry becoming increasingly consolidated among a few large publishers, it's become harder and harder for small, independent developers to remain profitable without the help of one of these major publishing houses. In fact, it's virtually impossible to get your homegrown title distributed on a home console, no matter how well it stacks up to the titles the big boys are making.On the PC side, the situation for indie devs isn't quite so dire, thanks to electronic distribution of these smaller titles being a much more viable option. Companies such as PopCap and WildTangent have found great success selling their smaller titles for under $20.
The burgeoning MMO market has also become quite a boon for small dev houses. San Francisco-based Three Rings Design is perhaps the best example of this, with their quirky MMO Puzzle Pirates becoming a large success for the company, despite their small a...

Wow. Or more accurately, World of Warcraft. It's all over the internet today in a big way. Blizzard released a ridiculous amount of information about their next expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, and some of the changes they've announced are pretty major. I thought I would use today's article to go over some of the most exciting announcements, discuss what makes them so interesting, and talk about what it means for the game (and for you). I'll be pointing out the links as I go along, but if you just want to go check out the articles, this post will send you everywhere you want to go and this post has a nice synopsis of all the available info in one easy place.Before I start digging in, I just wanted to mention that I would never, ever, want to compete with Blizzard as a game company. Those poor guys at Funcom... The Age of Conan release date was set for a month after Blizzard's big Sunwell patch -- it looked like they were in the clear, and they could ride people's boredom all the way to September and maybe even hold them. And then, Blizzard drops a bomb like this (ten days before AoC's rele...
