Rockstar and Rockstar North :

 Before knowing about this, we have to know the beginning of GTA We all know who has the rights for GTA.. And who is developing GTA. Rockstar But, actually, Rockstar didn't create GTA at its beginning It was a company called 'DMA Design'. This company was based on Scotland. They, originally, created GTA. In fact, they were the first owners of GTA. It was created by David Jones, a Scottish video game programmer. It was firstly created as an Indie game development company In 1997. they developed a game called Menace in the beginning In MS-DOS and Atari ST platforms. They were consistently developing games like this And those games were yielding profits. If you are creating a game, then you must need a publisher to publish your games The games can only be published by them. The games created by them were published by... A company called 'Psygnosis'. They were ones who were consistently publishing the games developed by them They too were developing many games for DMA After that, precisely in mid-90s Not knowing even what is video game development And not having much knowledge about it.. Two brothers are contacting them. They were Sam Houser and Dan Houser. They own a company called BMG Interactive this was a music label company. They proposed to publish a new game which was being developed by DMA Design And then published it too. That game turned out to be a huge success and And was a super hit. That game was none other than GTA. Grand Theft Auto After its success... BMG planned to develop a game based on their country.

 At that time BMG had to face some issues. So.. They changed their name to 'Rockstar' To develop GTA London They bought a Canadian game company and changed its name to 'Rockstar Canada'. In this situation, David Jones' DMA company started to develop the sequel game of GTA and completed it soon. This game was published Rockstar too. From this game, DMA develops their games with the Rockstar logo. In GTA 1, the game developed before this, had the BMG logo. In the poster too, BMG logo was only put They could have revised the logo in new posters, but earlier it had that one. GTA 2 was also successful and did very well in sales So, DMA tries to develop GTA 3 But, they decided that now it shouldn't be like GTA 2 this should be more advanced than that. This game was also published by Rockstar. Gaining huge profit from this, Rockstar realised that DMA has the full rights for GTA If they want to create a new game they cannot do it without DMA's help. So, Rockstar made a decision to acquire DMA Design. They decided that, "If we bought DMA... we would get the full rights for GTA, after that we don't have to beg DMA" As planned, Rockstar.. decided to acquire DMA and did so in 2002. After acquiring DMA,

Rockstar Vs Rockstar North 

 Rockstar changed it's name to 'Rockstar North' From here, Rockstar North is born. So, Rockstar North is nothing but... DMA, which was changed to Rockstar North. From then on, Rockstar has no problems they can develop GTA games in whichever way they want. When Rockstar acquired DMA, they were developing GTA Vice City they changed DMA to Rockstar North before it's development finished. Because of this, in GTA 3 old vesion, DMA Design's logo will appear But in GTA Vice City, there is no 'DMA' anywhere other than some references, in all places, the name of Rockstar North was present. After that, in all GTA games developed by Rockstar had Rockstar North's name So, finally, there are two companies Rockstar North are developers And publishers are Rockstar. So, this is the reason why Rockstar's two logos appear on the loading screen before the game starts. After acqiuring DMA, Rockstar grew very big But, David Jones, after coming out of that company didn't achieve anything big in his life. He did not get anything profitable after that You can think, "they bought another company, instead, they could've created a new one". Until now, Rockstar has many game developing companies all over the world. They totally have 10 subsidaries within them. In these, most of them are in different countries which were in different names. Then, they would have changed it's name after acquiring it. For example,

'Angel Studios' into 'Rockstar San Diego' and

 'Mabius Entertainment' into 'Rockstar Leeds'. To tell more, Rockstar even has a branch in India called 'Rockstar India'. It was founded in 2016 and currently located in Bangalore. In the beginning, when they started it in India, they did not properly get any employees and did not have proper support. So, what they did was, they contacted a pre-existing developer company that developer company was 'Dhruva'.

 When Rockstar India started and because it needed employees, they stared to work as a collaboration. Gradually, Dhruva Interactive lost its strength and it's employees joined Rockstar India. Due to financial crisis and loss which happened after that Dhruva Interactive was shut down. If you ask, "this is so unfair?" This is Corporate Ethics. It is a simple thing happening in the corporate world. For example, there is a software called Adobe Flash. This is mostly used for 2D animation and was also used for web development. But, it's first owner was not Adobe it was a company called Macromedia. As this software was good, Adobe buys Flash After that, it was changed to Adobe Flash Now, it is changed to Adobe Animate. Not only that, Autodesk has two 3D software One is 3ds Max Another one is Maya. Why a single company has two software of the same kind is because... only 3ds Max is belongs to Autodesk Maya is actually not theirs. But, in course of time, Maya become popular and was used by many. So, Autodesk acquires Maya, which was competing them Because of that, Autodesk has two software of the same kind. To make that simple... 

Whatsapp And Instagram were owned by different people But, Facebook acquires these two competitors Medias which were against each other, now, belongs to one person. So, this is corporate politics... One is to oppose and defeat him Or, make them ours. If you are competing a corporate company and approaching the winning situation... (movie dialogue) I'll confiscate your shop... bring your family to the mid-street and make you clean cow dung, Beacuse.... That is the method. So, I hope you understood the difference between Rockstar and Rockstar North from this blog post .
