Posted by Squaky | 7:41 PM | 0 comments »



This is the first time an Indian game is being developed along with an Indian movie. Most of the games produced to date have been mobile games or flash based ones but a full fledged, movie based game however, comes in a different league altogether.

The Idea and making are stupendous as Indian market is high in Multimedia and creativity but the main aspect of creating a game is to sell it, which is the only drawback of this gaming idea as we all know how poor is the PC gaming market of India.

The overall gaming market which includes console gaming as well as pc gaming has been affected by Piracy and it will take a decade to overcome it. So even though the Idea of Ghajini the game is a good one we have to wait whether it satisfies the gamers around the globe?

We all know that there is a financial crisis in U.S. which has made a great impact on the Game companies and developers too. Let us a have a look at how much these companies have been doomed in the Stock market.

Take-Two Interactive, has lost 40 percent of its share price in a month, going from $21.77 to $13.01.

Electronic Arts' abandonment of its Take-Two takeover bid, which was $26 per share at its highest point.

EA was also a big loser during the Sept. 9-Oct. 9 period. Despite a recent spate of hits such as Spore and Warhammer Online, the publisher's stock value has shrunk 37 percent over the month, going from $44.21 to $27.80. More alarming is the fact that EA's stock value has nose-dived 53 percent in the past year, having been worth $59.94 on October 9, 2007.

THQ, which shed 39 percent of its value, sinking from $13.83 to $8.34. Over the past year, the WWE SmackDown and Saints Row 2 publisher has lost 68 percent of its value.

Activision Blizzard, which shaved 28 percent--$4.67--off of its shares during the month, ending at $11.95.

Things were also tough for companies with major game interests, such as the two console companies traded on US stock markets. On the NASDAQ, Xbox 360 maker Microsoft lost $3.80 (14 percent) during the month to close at $22.30, down from $30.10 a year ago. On the NYSE, Sony Corp. fared worse, suffering an $11.91 monthly drop (33 percent), to end up at $23.51.

We all know that a sequel of the Blockbuster Terminator movie series in under production. It is also rumored that the Terminator, Arnold himself will appear as the T-800 robot in this 4th edition of the Terminator series. The photo above in which Christian Bale has been photographed actually standing in somewhat close proximity to Arnold, at some country-club.

Their source says the photo is proof that Arnold’s face will be digitally super-imposed onto the body of Roland Kickinger, the guy who back in July claimed he had been hired to play a Arnold’s T-800 robot from the original Terminator movie.

But it is all being refused from the side of Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is busy with his political work.

But If Arnold really acts in that movie, then it will be a historic one.

Canadian scientists have discovered the most massive star so far in the Milky Way.

Researchers from Montreal University in collaboration with an international team of astrophysicists, have found that the super-massive star has a mass 116 times that of the sun.

Though theoretical models of stellar formation hint at the possibility of stars that can be 150 times the mass of the sun, no star 100 times the mass of the sun has been discovered yet.

The researchers Olivier Schnurr, Jules Casoli and Andr -Nicolas Chen , Anthony Moffat and Nicole St-Louis discovered the super-massive star in the company of yet another massive star whose mass is also 89 times that of the sun.

These two massive stars form a binary system, with the lighter star waltzing around its heavier companion. They have a rotation period of 3.77 days.

Located in the massive star cluster NGC 3603 of the Milky Way, the super-massive two-star binary system has been named A1, a university statement said.

The two stars are so massive and bright that the light they transmit shows characteristics that only Wolf-Rayet stars possess.

A Wolf-Rayet star is a hot, massive and evolved star exhibiting a very high loss of mass due to a strong stellar wind (similar to the solar wind), the statement said.
