Chapter 4 Legendary Characters

Although the game has been made, this is just a semi-finished game based on IBM5150. According to the development process in later generations, this is just an alpha version.

So what Jester has to do is far from over.

He looked around in his room and threw electronic components everywhere, hoping to use this to piece together an arcade motherboard that could run American squares.

At this moment, he heard a sound of talking from the living room outside the door.

Jester subconsciously looked up at the clock on the wall, and the time displayed on it was twelve to thirty.

"It's been so soon..."

When Jester looked in the mirror in the bathroom in the morning, he had seen the time when he wanted to confirm who he was. It was just past seven o'clock at that time. Unexpectedly, he didn't realize the loss of time when he made a game. For him, it was almost just a time to smoke a cigarette or drink a cup of tea.

According to the memory of this body, Jester's mother should still be taking care of the supermarket at this time, and his father rarely goes home at noon.

Curiously, Jester pushed open the bedroom door and walked into the living room.

Jester's father was sitting on the sofa, saying something to a young man who looked about the same size as himself, with blonde hair and eyes, and looked a little quiet and shy.

Seeing Jester come out of the room, Jester's father also stood up with a smile on his face.

"Hi, Jace, let me introduce you to me. This is my colleague, Mark Seney, a very outstanding game designer, who is only one year older than you, but he has made such an excellent game as "Marble-Madness" (ball platform, very famous Atari arcade game). Don't you like to play it very much?"

Jester's father enthusiastically introduced the young man beside him, and the young man also greeted Jester enthusiastically.

"Jess, can I call you like that? I heard you are a student at the University of California? We still have some connections to it! I am from the University of Southern California!" Although Mark Seney looked shy, he was not the case. He was a very talkative, sunny, and joking person.

As soon as he met Jester's first meeting, he made a harmless joke.

Because it is well known that USCLA, which is facing the goal of UCLA, is a mortal enemy, and both sides once scored 50-0 in a National College Football League confrontation.

The winner was the University of Southern California.

From then on, both sides almost never ended.

But Jester didn't feel anything about this, because he was essentially not a UCLA student at all.

But when he heard the name, he stood there in surprise, looking at the extremely young face in front of him. In his memory, the photo he had seen thirty years later was somewhat similar, with the same look, as if full of passion, confidence and wisdom.

This is Mark Seney? It turns out to be Mark Seney!

Although Jester was the dominant player of all kinds of machines before he was reborn, he was essentially a real Sogodog, firmly believed that Sony Dafa was good and retired to ensure safety.

Yes, Jester was indeed Ren Hell's loyalty like many people before. After all, he grew up playing Ren Hell's games. But later he saw that other manufacturers had high-definition games, but Ren Hell was still using mosaic screens to make money from Duke's hard-earned money, so he couldn't bear it anymore.

The full screen gameplay of grass mud horse.

It is unforgivable to have a hell that can occupy the pit and not shit. It is a public enemy in the industry. Any fan of hell who can't imagine that if the PM is in the hands of Sony, wouldn't it be possible to play the PM with a huge picture?

Any player with conscience will not reject the high-definition version of PM. In other words, any player who refuses the high-definition version of PM will be a player without conscience.

If you have to play mosaics, you deserve to be free of your IQ.

As a qualified souvenir, how could he not know Mark Seney!

Idol!

Any large-scale game company will have their soul characters, such as Shigeru Miyamoto and Ren Hell, Yuuki Suzuki and Sega, and such characters in Sony Games are Mark Seni.

A true soul figure leading the rise of Sony Games.

This is a true master, and it is no exaggeration to call him a legend.

Jester fell into memories, remembering information about Mark Seney. At this time, he had just left college and was indeed designing arcade games at Atari. However, it may be the depression of the American gaming industry after Atari's impact. He will go to Japan to join Sega next year.

Yes, although he is just a designer of the small Atari arcade game, in the future, he will become the head of the Sega Sonic project. He designed the classic pink hedgehog, Sonic's girlfriend Amy, and later he served as the global vice president of Global Entertainment, and eventually joined Sony Games and became the soul of Sony Games.

Moreover, he is very good at promoting newcomers.

Later, the two founders of the famous Naughty Dog called him their spiritual mentors. You can even say that without Mark Seni, there would not be the Naughty Dog that would be later.

Even ICETEAM, who formed it with one hand and personally served as a supervisor and consultant, has made countless great achievements for Sony.

Just look at these well-known names!

"Unknown Seas" series, "God of War" series, "Crash Wolf" series, "Ricky and the Cleece" series, plus "America's Doomsday"...

It can be said that without the technical support of Mark Seni and his ICETEAM, Sony's three North American strongmen and Insonic-games would not have the best game screen in the world of Sony's first-party games.

Of course, he is not most famous for these, nor is his theory of Seni's creed by countless designers in game design, nor is he the Oscar and Nobel in the gaming industry award awarded by the International Game Developers Association (GDC).

Instead, his Sony hero, Ken Kutaraki, resigned because of a mistake in PS3 development. Sony Games is on the verge of being lost and failing. He accepted a new job as a software engineer who has never experienced hardware development, that is, the chief architect of PS4.

This looks quite a bit like the wind and cold Yishui, and the heroes will never return once they leave.

For the SEC and even for the entire Sony, the PS4, as the last flagship, does not allow any failure, otherwise this might be a fatal blow to this behemoth.

But just after appointing Mark Seney, at that time, almost everyone thought that Sony was crazy. It was not crazy to let a software writer do hardware.

Even if this software writer is already well-known.

But it was Mark Seni who made everyone understand what it means to be ordered in danger and to be unparalleled in the country!

PS4 was released for ten months, with a total sales volume exceeding 10 million!

This is still a result without any first-party masterpieces being released.

And their rival Microsoft's XBO has sold just over five million.

A great victory!

It was such a character who appeared before his eyes alive.

How unexciting you made a sophora dog?

What? Are you not excited? Because you are not a Sogodog.

"I...I..."

For a moment, Jester was even excited and couldn't speak.

Seeing Jester's appearance, Jester's father smiled and said to Mark Seney: "Mark, I told you that my son is your fan, and his favorite game is yours!"

"Yes, I like your game very much, I like it very much!" Jester couldn't control himself and said in a tone that was so eager and inconspicuous.

What he said was not false, but what he liked was not the arcade games he made now, but the masterpieces he would make later.

"Thank you."

Obviously, as a young man who is just twenty years old this year, and has not even celebrated his birthday, Mark Seni is far from the calmness he shows when he becomes a big shot in the industry after he becomes a big shot in the future.

He is also a young man who longs to be recognized, he is just a little designer who designs games in Atari with his dreams.

So he was very happy, his smile on his face became even stronger, and he kept saying thank you.

At this time, Jester's father's voice rang again.

"By the way, Jace, what have you been doing in your room just now? I see you haven't come out all morning."

When I heard my father's question, although I had no real contact with this father, I also knew through the memory of the owner of this body, and Jester also knew that his father loved him very much.

Moreover, what I will do next requires the help of my father to succeed.

Although you also know a little hardware knowledge, it may not be a big problem to assemble one or two available arcades by yourself, but it is far from that simple to make a real commercial arcade.

And my father is a very outstanding arcade engineer. Many of Atari's best-selling arcades were designed by his father.

"Nothing, I suddenly had an inspiration and wrote a new game myself, a game I never had before!"

Jester said deliberately in a plain tone, although he was so excited that he was dying, after all, this was the beginning of the huge dream in his mind.

"The game you made?"

Jester's father showed a suspicious look on his face. Although he knew that his son was very good at programming, he also knew that his son lacked the imaginative imagination that a game designer must have.

He believed that his son had the technical ability to write a game, but he did not believe that he had the ability to be creative.

"Maybe it's just something that imitates some game." Jester's father thought so in his heart. He didn't care. He knew clearly that designing a brand new game is not as simple as it seems.

"I wrote it." Jester said affirmatively, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, as if he was annoyed by his father's suspicious tone.

At this time, Mark Seney spoke in time.

"Can I allow me to see the game you made?"

"certainly!"

Jester agreed with a smile that he was waiting for this sentence. Although he had not applied for a patent, he was not afraid that Mark Seney would plagiarize the creativity of his game. First, he had his own father as a witness. Second, Mark Seney he knew was not such a villain.

"What's the name of the game? What type of game?"

When Jester led the two of them to his room, his father asked casually.
