Hi all, it’s Rusty again from the Santa Monica Studio.
We are getting ready to launch Everyday Shooter PSP and we are really thrilled about how it has turned out.
Between Jon Mak, Backbone
Entertainment and us, we have Jon’s thoughts about how everything went on getting this
made. Hope you all like what we’ve done.
_______________________
First things first: the seaweed is gone, but the hashbrowns are still in the freezer.
So Rusty wanted me to
write a little blog post about Everyday Shooter for PSP. I don’t really know what to talk about so I
guess I’ll start chronological and see where that goes.
I actually tried porting Everyday Shooter to PSP way back around December 20th, 2007, and stopped
around December 27th, 2007. Here’s an old video I found from back then:
WHAT!!??!? WHY DIDN’T YOU RELEASE IT!?!?? WHY DID YOU SIT ON IT FOR 239846921487 MONTHS YOU
SON OF SO MANY UNMENTIONABLE THINGS!!!!!!!
I thought the same thing until I remembered that it crashed every eight seconds, had a ridiculously
low frame rate, was missing graphics and effects, and generally blew.
Yeah, Everyday Shooter PSP really worried me at the time. I was convinced to get the game running
properly it needed to be hacked to shreds - reducing the number of enemies, changing all the
backgrounds, changing the enemy graphics - ugh, this is going to SUCK.
So I dropped the idea until Rusty contacted my agent, Warren, and I, saying Sony was interested in
putting Everyday Shooter on PSP. Immediately, the floodgates opened to the stress of so many
potential problems sweeping my soul to the faraway depths of darkness where it was then beaten
repeatedly at three frames per second before crashing…
But Rusty said (paraphrased): “Jon, this is how it’s going to go down. We’re
going to hire this developer [Backbone], and I know this guy, he is one of the best programmers I
know. And the deal is going to be this: if they even hint at a suggestion of messing with your
vision, we are going to fire them and find a new developer. This is going to be a straight port, we
are not going to mess with your vision.”
Skeptically, I replied “and the boobies?” To which he answered “no
boobies.”
Honestly, I was still skeptical.
I was also told that the original QA team for ES-PS3 was brought in to test the PSP version too, so
I’m quite confident that it was left in good hands.
I’m amazed at the job Backbone did:
They actually ported it without altering any of the graphics, effects, or gameplay! How!?? No
seriously, how did you do that!? Like, even the backgrounds? I was expecting to have to do this
whole back and forth about what graphics needed to be changed and redesigned, what enemies needed
to be reduced, gimping the game just for the sake of performance… NO! Not at all! They just
somehow made it work. What is this sweet juice of hexadecimal that you drink from and where do I
get it?
Then again, I’m not technically a great programmer, so maybe there’s some simple secret
I’m not aware of. I generally just multiply things by negative one if they don’t work
because in math, to get the opposite of something you just multiply it by negative one. Since the
opposite of “doesn’t work” is “it works,” multiplying numbers by
negative one should yield a correct result. Unfortunately, when
applying this strategy to Everyday Shooter PSP it still didn’t work.
Thus, and clearly thus, there was no solution.
Of course Backbone proved me wrong.
I think this is a pretty accurate port of the game. I mean, I played it till my hands cramped,
jotting down every subtle problem, some bordering on imaginary, but yet still fixed. For example,
the first
few builds I played, everything looked great and seemed to be in working order but something was
weird. I kept getting beaned by the game! I mean, I couldn’t even get to level 4! Suspecting
my own
skill level, I busted out the PS3 version just to make sure and to my surprise, I was still able
reach the final stage with just three starting lives. It’s got to be the port.
Okay, so how do you convince someone that this is actually a bug and not because of some lack of
skill on my part? I mean, otherwise, the game felt exactly like the PS3 version, so
there was no factual information to draw from except for “well, Jon thinks it’s too
hard now.” For weeks, I kept thinking they were going to ignore it, and it’ll get
released, and the internet will swallow me whole, and then it will hurt a lot.
But amazingly, the bug was found. Apparently (and from what I recall — I might be wrong), it
had something to do with timing issues since Everyday Shooter PSP runs at a much lower simulation
rate given that the PSP isn’t as powerful as the PS3.
To this day, I’m still not sure if anyone believed me on this, and I’m not even sure if
I believed myself (I’m quite positive it was way harder, though), and I totally see that the
whole thing just sounded nuts and imaginary, but either way, Backbone was gracious enough to give
me the benefit of the doubt and make this change. I know some people who paid a silver dollar only
to have their ports birched by shoddy developers, so I’m very grateful for the amount of
effort and attention Backbone gave to the project.
Anyway, we tried to make this as accurate as possible. Warren called me a few weeks before the
final build asking whether I played the PSP port yet and what I thought of it. I replied, “I
don’t know what to say. I mean, it’s basically Everyday Shooter PS3, except it’s
running on a PSP.”

Dodonpachi Daioujou Black Label Extra won’t be coming home for Christmas. 5bp announced a
last minute delay changing the Japanese release date from December 25 to a vague ”this
winter”.
Ketsui: Kizuna Jigoku Taichi Extra is sort of being delayed too. Ketsui, like Dodonpachi Daioujou
Black Label Extra, is slated for ”this winter” instead of January
29. I said ”sort of” being delayed above since 5bp never sent out
a formal press release marking January 29 as the day Ketsui: Kizuna Jigoku Taichi Extra would be in
stores. However, they sent out marketing materials to retailers which ran with the date. Not all is
lost for Japan’s shmup crowd they have other games like Raiden IV, Otomedius Gorgeous, and
soon in the future Shooting Love 200X to play. Meanwhile, the only Xbox 360 shooter we’re
100% sure that’s coming to North America in the future is R-Type Dimensions.

emBrothers in Arms: Hour of Heroes/em (a

be the breakout/a. It's made by a href="http://www.gameloft.com/"Gameloft,/a who've been making
mobile games for a while now, but the good news is that it doesn't look like a mobile game at all.
The graphics are 3D and vibrant, and the sounds are very impressive. The control scheme is
interesting -- it's more of a third person shooter, as you use the lower left wheel to move your
character, and you can use the touchscreen to move the aiming reticule (seems like there's a little
autoaim help in there as well). There are even cutscenes, multiple weapons to choose from, vehicles
to drive, and a cover system (though there kind of has to be, with aiming that slow in places).br
/br /Still, very impressive for an iPhone game, and a very good bar-setter for the first major
shooter we've seen on the platform. As you might expect, this isn't going to be cheap -- it's $9.99
in the App Store, and while this would be the perfect title for a demo (how else do you a
href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/11/24/how-to-sell-an-iphone-app-for-9-99/"expect to sell a $10
app?/a), there's not one to be found at all. Still, if there's going to be such a thing as a
premium game on the iPhone, this is probably it. For all of the colorful little puzzle and wordplay
games on the iPhone, sometimes you just want to shoot some Nazis.p style="padding:5px;clear:both;"a

Lively/a, but the hope that 3D online spaces can attract advertisers just won't die./p pNext up
with virtual world advertising dollars: Red Bull, which is partnering with Sony (SNE) to put a
tropical island and airplane racing game on the PS3 virtual world "Home." Red Bull hosts real-life
air shows too, so the concept isn't out of the blue./p pDespite a spotty track record for virtual
world advertising, Red Bull is on to a good idea. The problem marketers ran into in Second Life was
they'd spend big bucks on a virtual storefront, and when people showed up there would be nothing to
do./p pYou can't build fun things for avatars in Second Life because the user interface is so
primitive that even walking is difficult. Both Pontiac and Acura tried giving away Second Life cars
based on real-life models, but the virtual cars steered worse than early-80s arcade games like
"Pole Position" and people junked them after five minutes./p pFor most corporations, Second Life
meant deserted "virtual stores" that became an embarrassment for the companies involved. The
handful of successful real world presences in Second Life -- both a

"The L Word"/a come to mind -- only took off after companies made long-term committments to tedious
and expensive event planning run by human staff./p pBut unlike Second Life (or Google's Lively),
the PS3 is purpose-built for gaming. If Red Bull can deliver a fun and free air racing game, the
company can step back and reap the benefits of positive branding with no further effort./p pAnd
there's an added bonus: Red Bull can be fairly confident no one will storm their PS3 island with a
