The year's best games coming from Vancouver studios · 2 September 2010, 09:58

Today’s Georgia Straight magazine is a high-tech special issue, and includes my feature story looking at Vancouver’s game development sector.

The mood is optimistic.

If there’s been one overarching theme in Vancouver’s video-game industry during the past couple of years, it’s been layoffs. As recently as the spring, Radical Entertainment and Slant Six Games shrank in size, adding to the stress of a sector that has suffered numerous job cuts and studio closures since the fall of 2008. But that may be about to change. In the remainder of 2010 and early 2011, Vancouver developers are set to release some of the year’s biggest, and best, games.
