Blooming America

Chapter 372: Gates and Jobs in the exhibition hall

Gates was excited when he set foot on the New York exhibition grounds.

Finally here!

Although Apple has discounted its points, this did not affect the press conference the next day.

Because the X game industry has not been recorded, it has nothing to do with gamers.

And the next day is the opening of the game event.

Since the developer conference has also been opened by Catherine, Catherine simply named the exhibition "-NMET-/N", or E3 for short. If it were to be called more simply, it would be-E3.

After all, this is a grand event for gamers.

But on the other side, GAME-PENS-E, which is the Game Developers Conference, is open to all game developers, and this "developer" does not only refer to game producers, if it is an individual game developer or a private person The game development group of the same can also come in.

It is different from E3. E3 is facing game players, and it is necessary to give these players a fresh experience. It has a strong commercial flavor. The Game Developers Conference puts more emphasis on technical display, which is different from E3.

"Jobs!"

At this moment, his friend was waiting for him there. As soon as Jobs heard the sound, he ran over excitedly: "Bill!"

"Has the exhibition not started yet?" There are ten minutes to open.

At one o'clock in the morning, the venue opened on time, and the time has not yet arrived.

Even so, the venue is full of people, and the enthusiasm of the players is very high.

"Jobs, can we also make a game?" Gates asked suddenly.

"Shall we make a game?"

Jobs thoughtfully.

(Yes, I am learning C language recently. This magical language is very simple."

"Ah, I have also heard about it, but this language seems to be only one-seventh of the efficiency of assembly language, sometimes even lower. Although some of the current games use the C language, it is as popular as fighting. Most of the programs are written in U.S. games, Jobs has some concerns about this.

Yes, C language is very simple and convenient, but compared to assembly language, the execution efficiency of C language is really not good

In the current game industry, there are probably horizontal clearance types, role-playing types, sports and fighting types. Among them, the C language is most widely used in role-playing classes that do not have such high requirements for efficiency, and the fighting class is the least used type of game in the C language.

In some ways, Jobs’s concerns are justified, because fighting games are the most popular in the world.

Especially "Street Fighter".

The "Street Fighter" launched in conjunction with the comics is very popular among players. No matter who it is, they like this game very much. Almost everyone who has played video games has played the game "Street Fighter". This is by no means an exaggeration.

And ranked second, it is "Super Mario."

"Street Fighter" was gradually developed after the arcade rivalry, and "Super Mario" was the first game of the Cannon Prison. It has been able to support it until now and is already very powerful. However, in "Popular Software", the game ranked in the top seven games is still "Super Mario", and it can only be ranked third in "Street Fighter". As for the second place, it is "Contra".

"Can we make RPG games?" Gates asked.

Ah, if that's the case, it's a problem, but in the case of RPG, they are all cassette games, which are expensive, right? "

Tire's role-playing games are usually games with long plots, most of the time, they are adventure games similar to magic war chess. And such a game is a test for game capacity. Of course, with the development of science and technology, the current cassette capacity can already be reached, Peng, this is the upper limit of the capacity that can be read.

But if it is a tire-type game, usually only a cassette can be used as a medium, because the tape cannot store the game players' archives.

Because of this, RPG games are also called "noble games" because the cost of such games is too high.

For the same reason, the market for RPG games is not too hot, and compared with the current fighting games, the gap is too big. However, the RPG market has always been very stable, and there is an objective user group. These people have been cultivated since the era of the Magic War Banner. I think about what we should do. "Jobs thought about it seriously.

"What kind of game should we make?" Gates is also thinking hard.

"So far, the best-selling game is Super Mario. As of this month, it has sold more than 10 million copies, more than X game consoles."

Hearing Jobs' analysis, Gates nodded.

Indeed, this "Super Mario" is really amazing. The number of games sold exceeded the number of X game consoles, which is really terrifying.

"It should be easy to be happy to do this kind of game." Jobs cast aside his head: "But in this case, will it be too boring? We should make a game that can make everyone eat a good meal. "

"Ah, but the current game is definitely not working, Gates also shook his head. After all, the two are just students. They are at least ten years away from their fortune.

"The door is open!"

At this moment, the venue finally opened, and the two of them didn't care what to say, they just entered the venue together with the people in the line.

As soon as they entered the venue, the two felt a different atmosphere.

The floor of the hall is smooth marble, and the main color of the entire exhibition hall is "white". There are various posters on the walls of the exhibition hall. The picture of Chunli raising her leg is placed in the most eye-catching position. This powerful female Yingya can be said to be the most popular and popular heroine in the game. Because of the hot sales of "Chun Li Biography", Chun Li's reputation is also faintly prestigious as the highest in the "Street Fighter" game.

One in this country, there is a tradition of admiring superheroes, and the medium of paintings clearly helped them achieve this.

"Look, that is the second generation of Contra!"

A player beside him suddenly saw the picture on the large LED screen in the distance.

"This is the big screen of LED lights?"

Although New York International Airport already has such a screen, it is still far from the one in the venue.

And now, on this screen, the second-generation game screen of "Contra" is being played.

"Let's go and see!"

The two walked over together.

The familiar Contra music was playing, and the emotions of both of them were mobilized.

Bill Rezer and Lansbyen were carrying guns with red bullets, all the way forward. These two tough guys, the protagonists, are undoubtedly the favorites of Gates and Jobs.

"In the second generation of "Contra", we will adopt a branch route method for the game, and different choices will also create a powerful influence on the final ending."

The game commentator next to you is introducing this game to everyone. Although it is also introduced in "Popular Software", it is far less detailed than that. "The commissar of "Contra" has a rich plot. Everyone can see various character dialogues. Of course, if you like a hearty battle, you can also choose not to read the plot. When you enter the game, you can choose Shao, but, Don’t underestimate these plots. Sometimes, SS’s weaknesses and extra lives are in these plots, and these plots are rich and colorful. I believe everyone will love our game.”

, Peng's maximum capacity, coupled with the increasingly high level of craftsmanship, "Contra" can achieve the current level, it is not too much. The second generation of "Contra" can be said to have unearthed all the potential of RPG.

After all, it is the product of their own company, and they also know the performance of the machine very well. "I remember that Volkswagen Software said that they originally wanted to join the store system and the character attribute system. Unfortunately, the location machine can only do this kind of process."

Insufficient function, this is also something Catherine has been complaining about.

Two cassettes of "Contra" were purchased on the spot, and the two of them left here.

"Gates, how about we make such a game?"

Jobs seemed to think that a game like Contra was pretty good.

"Maybe we should change the name?" Gates seemed to agree: "For example, "Metal Slug"?"

"Maybe it should be a little more popular, how about "Metal Crisis" is "Metal Gear"?"

The word alloy sounds pretty trendy, and it feels pretty good to use~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I think our game should have a little bit of characteristics." Jobs was thinking about it.

"How about letting players drive tanks and planes?" Gates said.

"Yeah, but this idea is too easy to be copied. We want to make a feature just like the icon of Apple."

Jobs seems to think that Apple's is pretty good.

"For example?" "We can make the story more humorous, you see, it's like the feeling of DreamWorks"

Nowadays, American cartoon characters are realistic, only DreamWorks has a little \'Q\', some.

"We will succeed!"

The two exchanged glances, they had decided to do something meaningful this summer vacation, but they forgot to post that I am guilty and there is one more!

Tomorrow three shifts to compensate everyone.
