Adapted by award-winning.writer Andrew Davies from Alan.Hollinghurst’s Booker Prizewinning.novel, this three-part.drama serial is set during the.hedonistic 1980s and stars a mix.of young talent and established.names...This is a story of love, class, sex and.money, crawling deep under the skin of.1980s Britain.

Amidst the euphoria of.the champagne and parties, the young.graduate witnesses political scandal, the.deception and hypocrisy of the rich and.the desperate tragedy of the outbreak of.AIDS...This outsider’s journey into the heart of.the beautiful and seductive world of the.social elite bristles with emotion, drama.and social commentary. Full of style and.wit, this is a richly textured coming-ofage.story, set against the backdrop of a.ruthless decade

Notes:	Games are poised for a major evolution, driven by growth in technical sophistication and audience reach. Characters that create powerful social and emotional connections with players throughout the game-play itself (not just in cut scenes) will be essential to next-generation games. However, the principles of sophisticated character design and interaction are not widely understood within the game development community. Further complicating the situation are powerful gender and cultural issues that can influence perception of characters. Katherine Isbister has spent the last 10 years examining what makes interactions with computer characters useful and engaging to different audiences. This work has revealed that the key to good design is leveraging player psychology: understanding what's memorable, exciting, and useful to a person about real-life social interactions, and applying those insights to character design. Game designers who create great characters often make use of these psychological principles without realizing it. Better Game Characters by Design gives game design professionals and other interactive media designers a framework for understanding how social roles and perceptions affect players' reactions to characters, helping produce stronger designs and better results. * Includes extensive illustrations, game examples, interviews with game designers, and clips from popular games on the DVD to illustrate concepts and best practices * Uses a non-technical approach appropriate for artists and designers as well as developers * Introduces and explains key concepts from psychology and social science, including cultural and gender specific roles and perceptions, and includes design exercises to explore ideas further Includes bibliographical references and index
