Videogame Trends

by Jon on August 20, 2008

I recently gave a presentation at the Edinburgh Interactive Festival about new trends in the videogame market.  A few things I pointed out:

  • Games with strong social components are engaging people for longer periods of time
  • The people playing games are getting more diverse
  • Games are attracting an increasingly global audience

Did you like the ideas I presented? If so, I’m planning to collect a ton more information over the next six months–and present an uber-version of the presentation at South by Southwest in 2009.  If you think it would make for an interesting subject, please vote for my SXSW panel.

Thank you for reading this article. Please follow me on Twitter to hear more from me on innovation, games and entrepreneurship. If you'd like to learn how games can transform your business, also check out my book, Game On: Energize Your Business with Social Media Games.
