Video Game Producer
A video game producer is the top person in charge of overseeing development of a video game. History The earliest documented use of the term ''producer'' in games was by Trip Hawkins, who established the position when he founded Electronic Arts in 1982. Hawkins said in 1983: Sierra On-Line's 1982 computer game ''Time Zone'' may be the first to list credits for "Producer" and "Executive Producer". As of late 1983 Electronic Arts had five producers: A product marketer and two others from Hawkins' former employer Apple ("good at working with engineering people"), one former IBM salesman and executive recruiter, and one product marketer from Automated Simulations; it popularized the use of the title in the industry. Hawkins' vision—influenced by his relationship with Jerry Moss—was that producers would manage artists and repertoire in the same way as in the music business, and Hawkins brought in record producers from A&M Records to help train those first producers.

It was released on 1 August 1998 as the second single from their second album, '' Life Goes On'' (1998). The song peaked at number two in the United Kingdom, giving Sash! their fourth number-two single. In the United States, it peaked at number 11 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Dance Club Play chart. Critical reception Jon O'Brien from AllMusic stated that "Mysterious Times" is "arguably his best single", describing it as a "subtle attempt at progressive house." A reviewer from '' Daily Record'' commented, "Dance guru Sash! is in disappointing form here as he takes his production expertise to a previously undiscovered level of bland."

Rumble Roses XX
is a female professional wrestling fighting game developed by Konami for the Xbox 360 as the sequel to the 2004 PlayStation 2 game ''Rumble Roses''. The game was released by Konami in 2006. ''Rumble Roses XX'' is playable on Xbox One via backwards compatibility. Gameplay With the exception of a simple street fighting mode, the bulk of the gameplay focuses on matches which take place in various locales. Matches can be between individual wrestlers, between tag teams of two wrestlers each, or between a wrestler and a team (a more difficult handicap match). Matches are won either through pinning an opponent or forcing the opponent to tap out with a submission move. Players can break free of these through rapid button presses, although as wrestlers suffer more damage (both overall and to specific body parts), this becomes more difficult. The general game mechanics involve striking and grappling with foes to inflict damage upon different body parts. As successful strikes and grap ...
