Megatrends in Video Gaming

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008 | Market Trends

The following slideshow is from the presentation that I gave at Edinburgh Interactive Festival 2008.  The title of my presentation was, “Megatrends in Video Gaming,” with the audacious subtitle of “Can Videogames end War?”  I presented evidence that we’ve gleaned from GamerDNA about the increasing social and global nature of games.  Will people be more prone to seek peaceful real-world solutions with the people they’re engaging in virtual competition with?  What do you think?

Some of the games used in the analysis include: Rock Band, Guitar Hero III, World of Warcraft, Grand Theft Auto IV and Call of Duty IV.
