GameSpy Technology’s June Titles Close Record Breaking FY09
Weather-wise, we suffered a little “June gloom” here in coastal California as summer kicked off. Title-wise, however, we were blazing hot - 8 new titles shipped with our online services and connected gaming technology, bringing our fiscal year total to a close with a record 204 GameSpy-powered games. That’s a 33% bump over last year, and our third consecutive year of double-digit growth.
Marquee titles for the month include Sega & High Voltage’s The Conduit on the Nintendo Wii. This much-anticipated action title delivered old-school first-person shooter thrills to a platform from which they’ve largely been missing - with great results. Reviews have been uniformly strong, and gameplay numbers indicate a hit! We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: it’s time to take the Wii seriously for something other than just units sold.
Here’s the full breakdown for GameSpy Tech’s June 2009 titles:
- ARMA 2 (PC) Bohemia
- The Conduit (Wii) Sega / High Voltage
- Escape Virus (WiiWare) Fun Unit / Otwo
- Family Card Games (WiiWare) Ark System Works
- Fuel (PS3) Codemasters / Asobo
- Superstars V8 Racing (PC / PS3) Blackbean Games / Milestone
- Treasure World (DS) Aspyr
- Water Warfare (WiiWare) Hudson
Congrats to all of the publishers and developers on their June releases!
