Loaded with concept art and developer notes, “Game of Thrones: Visuals from the RPG” is the ultimate complement to the upcoming video game and the perfect bonus for fans of the books and TV series
IRVINE, CALIFORNIA – FEBRUARY 23, 2012 — ATLUS (Index Digital Media, Inc.), in collaboration with Cyanide Studios, today unveiled a limited pre-order bonus art book for “Game of Thrones™,” the upcoming RPG based on the internationally bestselling book series A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin and the critically acclaimed HBO® television series, Game of Thrones®.
Only available from select retailers while limited supplies last, the “Game of Thrones: Visuals from the RPG” art book stands as one of ATLUS’ finest bonuses to date, offering sixty-four full color pages of sketches, renders, photos, and screenshots from the game accompanied by compelling text and commentary from the game’s developers. The book will also include rare behind the scenes materials, like a portrait of the development team signed with a special message from author George R. R. Martin himself. The art book–measuring 8.5″ wide and 11″ tall–is hardbound, meticulously composed, and printed on premium stock, a true labor of love worthy of the series and its fans.
“‘Game of Thrones: Visuals from the RPG’ represents one of the most elaborate, expensive bonuses we have ever offered,” commented Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at ATLUS. “Everything about this premium art book is above and beyond the typical pre-order bonus, and all at no additional cost to the customer. Its larger dimensions, page count, hardcover binding, and exceptional print quality are more in line with what fans would expect from a Deluxe Edition extra or a separate purchase, which is why it will only be available at select retailers and quantities will be extremely limited. The A Song of Ice and Fire series of books and the Game of Thrones TV series are as special to us as they are to the millions of fans around the world; we are thrilled we can offer this unique bonus to complement the first major video game release based on the franchise.”
“Game of Thrones” is currently scheduled to release on May 15 for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and PC. “Game of Thrones: Visuals from the RPG” will only be available in limited quantities from Amazon (US and Canada), GameStop, EB Games, and the HBO Shop®.

La corte superior de Los Angeles ha dicho que Activision puede seguir adelante con el juicio por jurado en contra de EA. Según Activision, Electronic Arts interfirió con el contrato de dos de sus ex-trabajdores. El juez Elihu Berle ha dado la luz verde para continuar con el juicio porque según él hay evidencia suficiente. En el siguiente comunicado de prensa, Activision dice que West y Zampella “no cumplieron con sus contratos ni con el deber de lealtad a Activision por conducta insubordinada e impropia, y que la mala conducta de West y Zampella fue causada, al menos en parte, por la manipulación ilegal de EA”.
Los abogados de ambos ex-trabajadores de Activision dicen que el despido de ellos “fue sin mérito para negarles el dinero que ganaron” y “que los reclamos de Activision contra EA son un cortina de humo, buscando distraer atención de la conducta atroz de Activision a Jason, Vince, y el resto del equipo de Infinity Ward”.
El juicio se realizará a partir del 7 de mayo de 2012.

California Superior Court Finds Activision Publishing May Proceed With Jury Trial In Suit Against Electronic Arts
Motions Filed for Summary Judgment by Electronic Arts, Former Employees West and Zampella Denied
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Dec. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI), announced that the Los Angeles Superior Court has denied a motion brought by Electronic Arts, Inc. (EA) for summary judgment, thereby permitting Activision to proceed to trial on its $400 million contract-interference suit against EA.. At a hearing held yesterday, December 21, 2012, Judge Elihu Berle denied EA’s motion, finding that the evidence presented by Activision supplied a basis for a jury to potentially conclude both that EA had intentionally interfered with Activision’s employment agreements with former Call of Duty game developers, Jason West and Vince Zampella, and that EA had aided and abetted West and Zampella’s breach of fiduciary duties to Activision. A related summary judgment motion put forth by West and Zampella was also denied.
In the suit Activision alleges that West and Zampella breached their contracts and duty of loyalty to Activision by conduct that was insubordinate and otherwise improper and that West and Zampella’s misconduct was caused, at least in part, by EA’s unlawful tampering. A jury trial in the case is scheduled to begin on May 7, 2012.

ROCK OF AGES FOR PC GETS A MERRY UPDATE FOR CHRISTMAS!
Fa-ra-ra-ra-ra, ra-ra-ra-Rock of Ages.
IRVINE, CALIFORNIA – DECEMBER 19, 2011 — ATLUS and ACE Team today revealed that the Steam-exclusive PC version of Rock of Ages™, their balls-to-the-walls game of tower offense featuring fast-paced strategy, high art, and gigantic boulders of doom, would ring in the holidays and the new year with a Christmas content update. The holiday-themed content includes an all-new Snowman’s Head boulder skin (for both online and local use), permanently unlocks all defensive units for all maps, and introduces a number of limited time interface changes to make the game all the merrier!
As part of Steam’s Holiday Sale, Rock of Ages for PC is now 50% off for a limited time and is also included in in the heavily discounted Awesome Indie Bundle!
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas… In Rock of Ages, that is,” commented Aram Jabbari, Manager of PR and Sales at ATLUS. ”We’re all about spreading joy to the gaming world, and that’s why we’re so excited developer ACE Team is able to follow up their terrific Halloween update with this new content for the holiday season. Not only will the title screen and many of the other graphic elements get a temporary seasonal rework, but a new boulder skin and a significant gameplay tweak–not to mention a 50% off discount–should get people’s bells-a-jingling.”
Hailed as “a must-have download” by GamePro, Rock of Ages is a treat for the eyes, ears, and mind. As players progress through nearly two dozen stages of crushing action, rewarding strategy, and breathtaking visuals, they’ll be toured through five distinct periods of classic art history, encountering an assortment of famous historical and literary characters, outlandish and inspired defensive units, and fantastical bosses therein. The blend of genres and visual elements is so unlike anything else, the overall experience so unprecedented, that Joystiq deemed Rock of Ages ”worth playing for the sense of disbelief that results.”
Rock of Ages is currently available on Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PC via Steam. It is scheduled to roll onto PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3 system later this year. For more information, please visit www.atlus.com/rockofages.
