“ If your company is focused on Internet advertising, video games, TV advertising, radio or movies, PWC says you will likely see growth in the U.S. market over the next five years — ranging from rates in the 3 percent range to as high as 8.8 percent (for Internet ads). But if you’re in the recorded music, newspaper publishing or consumer magazine industries, the firm expects that you will see those markets decline by between 2.4 percent (music) and 2.8 percent (newspapers). ”

Early rumors point to this just being for the launch of the newest game.

Either way, a live-action trailer for a video game is interesting but if they release the game and a film (with a trailer this good) simultaneously it could easily lead to one of the biggest openings for a franchise in entertainment history.

via thedailywhat:

Stop What You’re Doing And Watch The Hell Out Of This of the Day: Fifteen years after the uninspired trainwreck known as Mortal Kombat: The Movie (Annihilation? Doesn’t ring a bell) is the world finally ready for a decent MK adaptation? The anonymous folks behind Mortal Kombat: Rebirth think so. In fact, if this eight-minute trailer is any indication of things to come, you may want to say goodbye to your loved ones because what we have here is epicness of ORBIT DISRUPTING PROPORTIONS.

If this turns out to be a trailer for a game reboot, that’s cool too.

Been thinking about gaming a lot lately based on some new projects. My friend Jaime is a passionate World of Warcraft player. Apparently she’s not alone.

“
As check-ins start to become a commodity - a feature offered by Twitter, Facebook, Google, Yelp - the advantage will go to whoever can make a checkin more interesting / fun / relevant. This will require combining elements of gaming, recommendation services, special offers from local merchants, etc.

It’s all about the *reason and motivation and incentive* behind checking-in. This is what we’re focused on - and what we feel we can do better than any other player in the space
