It has Begun!

The overall breakdown of this project is to design and create a Playstation Home Game Space in the Unreal 2004 Engine in the Styles of the God of War, and Assassins Creed series by Sony Entertainment. The company that inspired me to do this is a small company in the UK called Outso. Outso Ltd. works for Sony in the creation of virtual environments and content for the Playstation Home.

The idea of creating a Temple to one or more of the Greek Gods using Gothic Architecture greatly appealed to me. So Using the God of War and Assassins Creed games as an inspiration I will be tackling the challenge of making an effective Game Space that takes place in a Gothic Temple to the Greek Gods without infringing any of the Licensing set by Sony, Outso Ltd., or any other company.

Research thus far includes:


Watching user posted videos of other Game Spaces on the Playstation Home.
Watching videos of Gameplay and Movies for God of War and Assassins Creed.
Reading Greek Mythologies pertaining to the Gods.
Studying the history, Art, and layouts of Gothic Architecture.
Browsing images on the web for inspiration.

One thing I am trying to do is find a way to access and use the Playstation home feature of the PS3 for myself. Watching videos does offer insight but I would like to experience it for myself. As I currently do not have a PS3, (Blasphemy!) I will have to rely on the kindness of good friends to allow me to use theirs.

The images I'm using for inspiration will be the beginnings of my Moodboard.
