City Interactive Now Developing on Consoles that Print Money
Based in Warsaw, Poland, City Interactive has been developing and publishing games for international markets since at least 2002. Now they're expanding their efforts to the DS and Wii, with a focus on casual and special interest gaming. No specific titles have been announced yet, but I'm hoping they focus on quality instead of quantity--casual games can be good if done right, and both EA and Ubisoft have learned that cranking out shovelware doesn't work.
