Pearl Jam: Ten Special Edition, the web game

by Armando Alves.

Here’s something a bit different for a change: a web game promoting a music album, at PearlJamTenGame.com. Pearl Jam are known to have pretty demanding fans, and this Papervision matrix puzzle (were you unlock playable tracks) will surely be appreciated, a nice depart from the usual click and listen experience of most music related websites.

As Michael @bigspaceship said last week: we’re barely scratching the surface of what games can be – The Graveyard . This work by Freedom Partners is showing one of the paths that will be trailed by interactive the next few years. Remember that teenagers that spent their high school years playing X-box and PS2 are now becoming the workforce and expect to find the same playful experiences on the web.

Oh, and i missed listening to Pearl Jam.

Unleash the Force

by Armando Alves.

How about some gaming as a Friday time waster? Well, there’s always the new site from 2Advanced for LucasArts: The Force Unleashed.

The Force Unleashed

Most gamers are all excited by this Star Wars release, that promises some kick-ass physics engine and might even attract not-so-serious gamers, like me. As for the site, lots of video and i guess some Perlin Noise actionscript for the menu fx, something like Ricardo Cabello (mr. Doobs) is doing here.

One thing that always pisses me off is why game/movie websites don’t usually have social features (embed videos, social bookmarking, etc). It sucks seeing a great trailer (above) and then have to look it up on YouTube to embed. Besides, a great opportunity is lost to track their content and interact with their audience with a branded media player.
