Writers Wanted:
We need writers willing to do editorials (Xbox2 vs PS3/etc) Interviews (ask companies questions on upcoming titles) and maybe other articles. As of now our current staff is busy with school and reviews, so they have no time to do interviews and editorials. If you want to start working for us, this is a good place to start. Please, serious inquiries only. If you can't write, don't bother, our editors are busy enough as it is :) If you can write the English language very well and are interested in writing please inquire within. English does not have to be your native language, only well written. You can live anywhere in the world. You must have a desire to write, and write a lot. Knowledge of computers and games is a plus. Ages 16 and up. If you fit this profile please send a sample a text of something gaming related to kurt . k @ gamershell . com. Sample text should be in the context of gaming. 2-4 pages only.
1. Copy/paste job: "Visiting public will bear witness to the fact that Rome really wasn’t built in a day, being virtually transported back in time at the ‘Building Virtual Rome’ World Expo in the city’s Markets of Trajan from Thursday. Using state-of-the-art technology, including Animazoo’s Gypsy Gyro-18 motion capture systems, visitors to the site will be fully immersed in a 3D stereoscopic view of the Roman Empire and Ancient Rome as part of the crowd from within a virtual coliseum. The showpiece, a fight sequence performed by gladiators from Rome’s famous Gladiator School was captured using two GypsyGyro-18 motion capture systems. The fight, shot over an area the size of a basketball court in one continuous 3 minute take is a "first" for motion capture technology. The gladiator models, created by Past Perfect Productions and the University of Salerno, have been recreated from remains of actual gladiators found in Pompeii, using skulls, DNA samples and skeletal remains". Details here.
2. Futuremark Corporation announced today that Tokyo-based Digital Media Professionals Inc. (DMP) is joining its handheld benchmark development program. In addition, DMP is licensing source codes for Futuremark's SPMark04 3D graphics test and forthcoming OpenGL ES benchmark suite. Details here.
