Cracking The Code: Ireland’s Independent Game Developers
The games industry now dwarfs, and often trolls, the film and music industries. DFC Intelligence puts the 2012 value of the video games industry at $66bn, compared to film’s $29.2bn and music’s $16.5bn. Last month’s release of Grand Theft Auto V cost, development and marketing included, $265m – outstripping Spiderman 3’s $258m. But, as with film and music, the big-budget, high-production utterances don’t always court critical acclaim, or even commercial success. And, just like rave-reviewed movies shot on a shoestring and bedroom-recorded albums that made overnight superstars of unknown bands, there are those independently produced games with brilliant ideas that can grab our imaginations, our wallets or both.
