INTERVIEW ALAIN CORRE, UBISOFT
these concepts are second to none. We are really happy to see that Nintendo has a lot of good franchises, because we feel that it still has a love affair with families, and we really need the living room to offer possibilities to families to play games.”
THE FUTURE So could Ubisoft manage what it has threatened to do, and topple Electronic Arts as the world’s biggest games company? They’re not there yet. EA’s line-
up of big franchises and sports games will keep it ahead of the pack for some time to come. But that gap isn’t quite as vast
as it used to be. Ubisoft is now viewed as the true publishing giant it always was. And it will find those questions that gamers and critics are asking of them will only get tougher and tougher.
Yet with a line-up like the one it’s
currently touting you can see why Guillemot and Corre are in such confident mood. “All-in-all this industry is in a
buoyant mood right now and some of the people who left the industry are coming back because they feel that these new technologies are offering new canvasses for creators to bring something we’ve never seen before,” concludes Corre. “Both Sony and Microsoft have managed to put some oil on the fire of the passionate gamers, and we thank them for that. We think that moving forward the high- end video game business is back and we are going from strength to strength. Because what we will bring in the next 18 months in terms of games are really beyond anything we’ve been able to experience before.”
