Article Idea:
How a bunch of UX people researched Spore
suggested by Nate Bolt on 2008/09/12
Case study on how a group of user experience researchers at Bolt|Peters came up with a crazy unique native environment methodology for researching the player experience of one of the most complex video games ever created, Spore. The good folks at EA have given us rare permission to discuss the methodology and how we applied UX research principles to the video game study. Unfortunately we can’t discuss the current DRM or Amazon scandals, but it’s a great look at how user experience principles can be applied to video game research, since everyone loves to talk about how much we can learn from video game interfaces. Okay, not everyone…
