Rockstar Games

Rockstar is a multinational video game developer. Rockstar has studios all over the world such as Canada known as Rockstar Toronto, Rockstar Leeds, Rockstar Japan, Rockstar London, Rockstar New England, Rockstar Lincoln, Rockstar San Diego and Rockstar North. Each studio develop different games and are known for the game that they develop, such as San Diego are known for creating Red Dead Revolver, Red Dead Redemption, they also developed the RAGE engine. The RAGE engine is an engine which enables Rockstar to develop games on many different platforms such as Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii etc...They are known widely for there controversial games such as the GTA series. There is much controversy in the GTA series due to the violent nature of the games and the criminal actions throughout the game. Many people and politicians have said that they influence young children to commit crimes and be violent to other citizens. Personally I believe that this is untrue as the games do have an 18 cert on them so if young children that aren't old enough to purchase the game are being influenced through playing the game must be the getting the game from there parents. So it is the parents at fault for purchasing the game for them and allowing them to play it knowing that they aren't old enough for the game. I really like the freedom that you get when playing the GTA series as not many game give you that. I also enjoy the side mission and achievements that you can get. I would say that one of the best qualities that the later GTA have are that they have achieved outstanding graphic quality in there game that has come further than most games. The GTA series where created by Rockstar North. However GTA: Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories where created by Rockstar Leeds and Rockstar Toronto converted GTA IV and GTA: Episode from Liberty City to PC platform. Rockstar has also helped to develop films such as Football Factory, Red Dead Redemption: The man from Blackwater. They aren't famously known for there  movies it's there games that catch the audiences attention whether it's good or bad attention. Rockstar links to what I am learning now at Leeds College of Art as we have gone into character design and we are learning to create our own game environment in which we are able to move around with props included which are created using Maya software.
