It didn't play? Give it a second to load.

We like to cut together a custom demo for each project we bid on using in-game footage from games we've shipped. We can make one that suits your project, too.

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars for the Xbox 360 ships today!
box art
In January, Nerve Software asked us to update the audio for their 360 version of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. We were given the toolset and a copy of the PC game and asked to revise specific items as well as update any other content we saw fit. We went all out, updating the weapons, character movements, vehicles and world ambient sounds. It's a great game and working with Nerve was an awesome experience.

From the press release:

"Enemy Territory: Quake Wars raises the bar for next-gen console games with its variety and intense combat," said Kevin Cloud, Executive Producer, id Software. "Whether you're playing online with fifteen friends, or playing a single-player campaign against amazing AI, Enemy Territory: Quake Wars delivers a new level of team play and combat strategy to the PS3 and 360."

The creators of the brilliant Fabulous Secret Powers are masters of the moving picture. Having created game videos for companies like Square/Enix, they're no strangers to video games. In fact, the original movies they made for Wideload's Hail to the Chimp is being praised as one of the best features in the game. You say video, we say SLACKCiRCUS.

Rickwood Music www.rickwoodmusic.com

While the GL33k can handle hip-hop beats and thrashing guitars, we don't do sweeping orchestral scores. If your game calls for that, we'll call up Chris.

Chris Rickwood is an award winning composer known for creating dramatic musical scores for video games, film, and television. Rickwood’s work can be heard worldwide on a variety of mediums for clients such as Activision, THQ, Microsoft, Cartoon Network, Capcom, and Nintendo. He began his career by composing intense orchestral cues for several game titles including Evil Dead: Hail to the King, BloodRayne, and Maximo: Ghosts to Glory. Since then, Rickwood has composed over 20 scores for Cartoon Network New Media, contributed music and sound for several PC games including Law and Order: Criminal Intent, Civil War: Bull Run, and The Apprentice: Los Angeles, and experimented with other gaming mediums such as mobile phones and video poker machines.
