Gaming Industry to Take Over Politics?

It appears that the game of politics is even seeping into the world of online gaming. A social gaming site, Social Gaming Network, has a game on its hub called JetMan where users can play as a simple man traveling through an obstacle course. The only button you need to know is the spacebar.

However, the creators of JetMan and Social Gaming Network have a new game - JetDelegate (http://apps.facebook.com/playjetman/delegate_arena.php) – their online debate – and according to the social gamers, JetObama and JetMcCain are neck and neck with more than 120 million points each and JetHillary is trailing by several million points coming in at just over 25 million.

The game is easy – use the space bar or mouse to navigate your chosen delegate through a maze of tunnels with Statue of Liberty obstacles that you have to avoid to accumulate points.

And it’s more than just a game to players – JetDelegate generated more than 3,000 comments on the message board in the first 48 hours since its launch – indicating that social gamers and social networkers are eager to have their voices heard.

The game looks simple and not as graphic intense compared to games available for home consols, but with more than 3,000 comments on the message board, this simple game may help decide the next president. Let N4G know what you think about it the game.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
