Mexican games market worth $1 billion by 2010

Says so here. The news comes from a Research and Markets report.

The review states that the Mexican games industry is “exploding”.

“The results of our research flies in the face of the image of Mexico as an insignificant consumer market plagued with piracy,” said Phung Pham, lead analyst on the paper. “There is a booming gamer population and despite problems with piracy, a substantial level of legitimate business. And video game publishers are finally starting to take note.”

All those people speaking Spanish. You’d think someone would launch a proper Spanish language games website, wouldn’t you?

“2010″ could be Clash of the Titans game

The recently spotted “2010″ game from Brash could be the film tie-in for the upcoming Clash of the Titans movie, says this. Brash also confirmed it’s handling the Saw game yesterday, so this doesn’t sound like the most impossible thing in the world. As long as the skeletons are done in stop-frame animation, we’re good with it.

Brash shows 2010 for first time

No, it’s nothing to do with the film. According to this, Brash showed a game titled 2010 at a recent press event, which sounds like an action affair involving minotaurs, walking skeletons, swords and massive scorpions. It was in trailer-only form, so it sounds a way off. There’s no release date or platform information as yet.
