Addiction to Video Games
In recent years, video game playing has become a major addiction that people use to avoid responsibility for their feelings.

Console Games...Gone in 60 Sec.
Short game. Long game. No game. Gone in 60 seconds. Expecting too much from consumers can prove to be foolish even in video games. The outcome of the Xbox, PS3, Wii challenge could lead consumers to a less than "obvious" decision. It isn't the power that wows, it's the fun that satisfies.
The Dawn of Pokemon: Tajiri Launches His Game
Tajiri was no stranger to video games. In the early 1980s, he had won a contest sponsored by Sega that involved making a video game. With his “Game Freak” colleagues, Tajiri had also created his first video game, Quinty, which was published by Namco. But in 1991, Tajiri discovered something that he thought was revolutionary: the Game Boy. When he saw two boys playing a game together, connecting their Game Boys by a link cable, Tajiri immediately began to think of the possibilities. “I saw Game Boy when it was first released,” says Tajiri. “The idea for Pokémon clicked in my mind. The basic idea for Pokemon seemed a good fit for Game Boy.”

The Guy Who Stands Still Gets Killed First.
I have a nephew who just turned 12. He’s a smart young guy, and he taught me a valuable lesson a few months back. Like many 12 year-old boys, he’s a video game hound. He owns the very best that Sony has to offer. I used to be a video game hound too, going back to my first Atari in 1980. When it comes to video games, much has changed in the past 27 years, with super fast-paced action, vibrant graphics, thundering sound, and a much more complex controller to make it all happen.

Are Children Good Closers In Sales?
A young boy convinced his parents that by buying him that new video game he would be a lot safer than hanging out at game rooms where there were bad influences and maybe trouble. What a close!
ITV…Does Art Imitate Life or Life Imitate Art?
Tellywood and manufacturers have picked the team they want to be on and have started the game to determine who will be the league winners in the next generation DVD series. Problem is there is no one in the stands. Consumers seem happy to watch the game they know. After all, current DVD recorders, players, media is very economic. Millions of viewing options are available. No one has done a good job of showing them why the new game is better -- unless you call the news releases and press conferences proof. Boy looks like it is going to be a long season.

Are You In The Game
Have you ever noticed that it is the people in the stands who supposedly know everything about the game? They give all kinds of advice, but you don't see them actually in the game. It is as if the game exists only for them. Many will say that yes, the game does exist for the fans, for without the fans, where would the game be? I'd like to throw a wrench into that argument and say that, yes the fans are an important part of the game, but without the players, the game wouldn't exist either.
Sharing is caring: video upload sites
Video sharing is now one of the major players in the game of online marketing. It makes sense - sure, every website needs terrific, keyword-full content to be able to attract, inform and engage a visitor. But how much easier is it to click a Play button and sit back and listen, then have to scroll through the unfortunately copious amounts of text many businesses feel they need to fill their website with. Videos are interesting, entertaining, easy to watch and can be relatively cheap to make. Many people learn better visually than through the usual text. And this is why video sharing has stepped up to the plate and hit a figurative home run for businesses across the online world.
Increasing Your Sales with No Out of Pocket
In today’s market, most of us are focusing on how to stay in business and increase profits without having to spend a lot of money in the process. Doing this can be a real challenge and at times, really frustrating. So, I like to look at this process like playing a strategic board game. It takes some real “think out of the box” along with some good team players and some creative ideas, all mixed together to reach the end of the game and win the prize as inexpensively as possible.
Impact and Influence in Negotiation - There's More Than One Way to Float Your Ideas
Influencing, persuasion and negotiation is a game of sorts. That doesn’t mean it’s not serious – think World Cup soccer and notice how much a game can exhilarate, infuriate and become the subject of national debate. The analogy of the game is important because it is a reminder that there are rules that apply and expectations that players will abide by the rules – even when they are not spoken or written. As well as rules there are rituals (these are the accepted way of doing things) and one of these seems to be that we “float” our ideas to improve their acceptability rather than ask outright.
Only A Level Players Need Apply
“A” level players want to work with other “A” level players. It makes them better, stronger and even more productive. So, the question is how much time and energy and effort do we spend trying to make “B” level players into “A” level players? How much success have we had? How about instead today we make a commitment to go out and start finding and bringing in“A” level players.
