Video games… we need more video games!

By Heri Jan 21st 2008 in video games

Unlike one might believe after following popular technology blogs, technology is not limited to web applications or the iPhone.

In Montréal for instance, video games is one of the most, if not the most, dynamic sector with companies like Ubisoft, EA, Eidos or A2M pushing world-class titles pretty much every month. It also has the most demanding jobs, both on the creative side and in programming. As such, this is a field I want to cover. If you are interested in writing about video games (both about the process of making, and also reviews for new titles) on this blog, shout an email at news@montrealtechwatch.com, or leave a comment.

Of course, this is NOT a job, and you shouldn’t really view it as such. I am looking for someone who can write a post every week or so, in french or in english, who is working (or wants to work) in this industry, and who genuinely interested in video games.
