During his time at EA Seattle, he oversaw the development of such leading franchises as Need for Speed, FIFA Soccer, and Motor City Online. Tony has also been responsible for a string of successful start-ups and won a diverse set of industry awards for many of the products with which he has been involved.
Details
UUG’s initial focus is on establishing and maintaining regional chapters in the key game development cities of San Francisco, Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto, with plans to branch out to other top locales soon thereafter. To kick off the Toronto chapter, UUG is hosting a premiere networking event on Tuesday, Nov. 10, followed the next day by a Unity Skills Development Workshop with Amir Ebrahimi, Unity Developer and Field Engineer.
The entire initiative will be framed within a "web-ready" context, exploring how tools like Unity are enabling developers to create, market and monetize console-like browser content for a growing audience of online and mobile gamers.
Admission for the networking event is $10. This includes a free drink, eats and a chance to win a Unity License (valued at $1,500)!

dimeRocker is a soon-to-be-released branded distribution platform that will enable independent Unity game developers to deploy, monetize and grow traffic for their 3D multiplayer game content across the social web.
