凱文?周：改寫(xiě)社交游戲規(guī)則的人 ????對(duì)Zynga的社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲FarmVille及其他在線(xiàn)游戲嗤之以鼻的鐵桿玩家應(yīng)該拜會(huì)一下凱文?周。凱文?周的可視游戲公司Kabam使用網(wǎng)絡(luò)作為其主界面，但其目標(biāo)用戶(hù)可不是那些所謂的“大眾/菜鳥(niǎo)玩家”。Kabam公司的第一款游戲《亞瑟王國(guó)》（Kingdoms of Camelot）就是給《文明》（Cilization）和《星際爭(zhēng)霸》（Starcraft）等復(fù)雜游戲的骨灰級(jí)玩家奉上的一份大禮。該公司已經(jīng)推出了五款游戲，玩家數(shù)量總計(jì)已經(jīng)達(dá)到了1,100萬(wàn)人。平均每次登陸，他們的游戲時(shí)間都超過(guò)三個(gè)小時(shí)。最近的一輪融資中，Kabam公司從谷歌風(fēng)投（Google Ventures）和其他投資者手中融資8,500萬(wàn)美元，進(jìn)一步證實(shí)了凱文?周成就一番事業(yè)的信念。 ????翻譯：?jiǎn)虡?shù)靜/汪皓 |
Gaming: Kevin Chou ????Hard-core players who turn up their noses at social games -- like Zynga's FarmVille and other online fare -- should meet Kevin Chou. Chou's videogame company, Kabam, uses the web as its main interface, but it isn't for lightweights ("casual gamers," in industry parlance). Kabam's first game out of the gate, Kingdoms of Camelot, was intended as a valentine to veterans of complex games like Civilization and Starcraft. He's published five games and racked up 11 million players who average more than three hours of play per session. Kabam's latest investment round raised $85 million from Google Ventures and other backers, validating what Chou has known for some time now: He's on to something big. |
