In this episode of the IT Manager Podcast - we've stitched together 4 interviews we recorded at the Montreal International Gaming Summit in late November. Microsoft Canada used MIGS as a launch vehicle for High Performance Computing in Canada.

We get an update on the use of HPC in the Gaming industry and talk about how it can be used to help speed up the increasingly complex game development pipeline. This episode isn't just about technology - we also take the time to talk with Ubisoft Montreal about their approach to managing a team of developers and artists who created the long awaited FarCry 2 game title.

You know you the developers of the games do a very good thing. They creat games what is very important. As for me I don't play much but to the large degree because I can't find anything more or less interesting. I prefer to play such games which can do you good, can add smth to your development. In fact it is wrong when smb says that games are evel. I watched a book about the influence of games which I found at the book search engine http://pdf.rapid4me.com ). So, the games turn out to be not as bad as somebody may think. If earlier people looked at gladiators when they tried to kill one another now people satisfy such a need with a help of games.
