AGC Day 2

Interesting things I heard from Day 2:

1. India is still a huge untapped market for online gaming. Their style of gaming (western/eastern) can still be shaped by companies who get there first. (Cindy Armstrong, WebZen CEO)

2. WiMax can play an important role in reaching more gamers in new markets such as India. (Daishiro Okada, Square-Enix)

3. You can (should) apply economic theory to designing MMOGs, and here a perfect market is NOT optimal. (Sam Lewis, Cartoon Network) Wow, maybe my econ degree could be useful after all!

4. Dell is positioning itself to be a major player across the entire online gaming ecosystem (home PCs, servers, displays)
