New NYP course on creating PS games

Game developers and students who want to produce games for the PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Portable (PSP) consoles will no longer have to travel to Japan for lessons.

The Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) said on Thursday it would train people to work on these two platforms through a new $4 million Games Resourdce Centre it has set up with Sony Computer Entertainment Asia, which owns the PlayStation brand.

Tokyo-based game developer Premium Agency will conduct in-depth classes for the lecturers, who will in turn teach students here.

Classes will begin from june this year, when the centre opens with 50 PlayStation 3 and 10 of the PSP handheld developments kits.

With this collaboration under its belt, the BYP will be the only school in South-east Asia which teaches students the know-how behind consoles from the three major players, including Nintendo and Microsoft.

The partnership will "hopefully give out students more opportunities and make them more marketable to employers ...for the console game market", said the school's principal and cheif executive officer Chan Lee Mun.

The training is part of the bigger picture to invrease the skill-sets of Singapore workers in the games industry, which will in turn attract big-name companies to set up shop here - somethine which the Fovernment has been trying to do.

Third-year NYP student Tobie Wee, 19, felt it would be "exciting to learn about this platform".

"It will also give us an advantage over the rest (other game developers without such training) when we go out to work," he said.
