IENT- The First Game Released in 5 Years Just Hit the Shelves! JW Stealey Announced That it’s Finally Time to Reboot The Company!

Posted by BullQuake on March 14, 2010 · Leave a Comment

A great brand new company is about to emerge in the $8 billion online global games market, the fastest growing sub-segment of the $41 billion worldwide games business. And it’s going to be a real-world techno Thriller!

Our members could see gains of 100% or more relatively quickly!

“We’re going after the Tom Clancy’s of tomorrow,” Stealey said.
Note: IENT has signed contracts with several New York Times Recognized Best Selling Authors for numerous upcoming games releases. Be Prepared, with the release of such information around the corner IENT’s stock price could go astronomical! “Interesting to note the biggest military author, Tom Clancy (signed his first game deal with Fred Schmidt, Now Thriller New Media’s CEO)
Why do they have so much confidence to be able to get a slice in such a fastest growing segment of the 41 billion USD global video games industry – the eight-billion-dollar-a-year online games market? They will tell you with great pride. Many members of the Thriller New Media team have strong roots in military video games, spy games, FPS action games and online multiplayer games going back to circa 1985-92 MicroProse, one of the most successful game brands of all time. The team’s goal is to once again build a world-class, worldwide, online game company in the tradition of MicroProse with long term franchise value.

Note: They sold Microprose to Hasbro for $70 Million in the early 90’s.

iEntertainment was in quiet mode for about two years because Stealey hoped to sell the business, but late last year he switched gears and moved to revive the business.

According to an interview with JW Stealey Late January we should be expecting a PR any day now naming one of the multiple New York Times Recognized Best Selling Authors contracted by IENT! “IENT has plans to use these authors for story lines in upcoming game releases.”

Company Overview:
Thriller New Media was created in late 2007 by Wild Bill Stealey, who first worked as executives at legendary 1980’s-era game brand/studio/publisher, MicroProse Software. Bill co-founded MicroProse with hall-of-fame game designer, Sid Meier. Wild Bill Stealey has (with a great bunch of other folks, to be sure!) created and launched best-selling game titles like F-15 Strike Eagle, F-117A Stealth Fighter, Gunship, Silent Service, Tom Clancy’s Red Storm Rising (the game), Pirates!, Railroad Tycoon, Civilization and many more.

The job of creating a successful game company today is bigger than it has ever been before. So Wild Bill Stealey is actively reassembling a lot of the best talent they have ever worked with in the industry and using that extended network to further build a top-rate development and publishing organization.

Thriller is going to be all about exciting games in the leading genres of shooters, action, strategy and simulations…pursuing the No.1 experience that every game should always be about: “Is it fun?” That is achieved through well-conceived game design…good technology and graphics…easy-to-get-into but hard-to-master play style…often a compelling storyline, characters you care about and maybe even a chance to learn some new things along the way…and reaching the player community in all the places and ways in which they are enjoying their games today: on PC’s and new-gen consoles, online in social communities of all sizes, and via mobile devices on the go.
The possibilities for meaningful interactive fun – both alone against computer AI, and with old and new friends online — are more plentiful than ever before. And Thriller is committed to mining those possibilities with all the insight that our highly experienced team brings to this mission.

Creative and development relationships with industry-leading talent and studios will extend worldwide – wherever they need or want to be. Some initial Thriller/partner products might emerge yet in late-2009 / early-2010 from existing studios with whom we are already in covert discussions.
We’re excited and preparing for take-off! See you behind enemy lines…

Thriller New Media Overview:

So, as overview, here is a rundown on what we at Thriller see as our large starting field of opportunity:

Genres: First-person shooters, action, adventure, simulations. Maybe a Serious game or two also; we’ll see.

Themes: A focus on military/espionage themes… content developed by staff and studios who often may have real-world experience in combat and spook operations… backed by industry-leading category authors… a blue-ribbon advisory board… and access to invaluable technical and covert sources.

Platforms: All current and emerging technology that provides open social Internet-access. To start: PC/Mac, some handheld, mobile (iPhone, Android). Eventually (we hope): X360/Live, PS3, Wii, and whatever else comes along.

Modes: A focus on online multiplayer and massively multiplayer. But also allowing for some solo play experiences that can be fun, engaging and fulfilling. Plus good UI, solid training and practice opportunities, and smart networking to find compatible groups and play experiences.

Engines for new development: Primarily modifications of proven existing technologies or promising new apps already stable and demonstrable by expert technologists.
Sources of new products: acquisition, licensing and original development; new studios and/or third-party.
Online Operations expertise, capabilities and relationships: worldwide.

Specific Theme Guidance:

Military: modern, historical, future/sci-fi
Spy/espionage
Related offshoots of the above
Grounded in authenticity, realism, sensibility even if presented in a spoof style
Good always triumphs over evil in the end; evil must never win
Impart knowledge about world issues and conflicts; opportunity to enlighten
No gratuitous violence, random killing or glorification of the enemy
Made BY people who understand war and weapons FOR use by people who understand and respect the same
Other Media to extend IP: Books, movies, board and card games, toys, etc.
