What Could Possibly Be Coming Next In Video Games?
... are fun to play and are hard at the same time. You are even going to have games that require you to use your brain and think through the game. Those types of games tend to be the types of games that you have to be sneaky in like the new splinter cell and those kinds of games.
People are starting to go crazy when it comes to video games. There are people that will even carry their favorite systems with them just so they can play anytime they want. What they will do is take a backpack and put their gaming system in the backpack then carries a portable dvd player with them so they can play. Even though it sounds insane I think it is pretty cool to do. Like you are in college and say you are going to class and you just find out that you have a sub and you will not be doing anything for the day, you can either go ...more

Google's Next Move Video Game Ads?
...bsites to display their ads by copying some code on to their site, Google would have to work with game programmers throughout the development process. This would be much more time consuming and would be a much larger risk for Google. In the same way that Massive signed the contract with 2K, Google would have to sign large contracts with game developers and work with them for several months to integrate their ads.
This enforces the fact that the main difference between what happened with DoubleClick and what could happen with video games is that it would probably be more work for Google to distribute their ads over multiple channels (i.e. more games). Since each game is programmed differently, there is no game equivalent to the JavaScript used in all AdSense ads. Every game would need to be tailored to Googles ad network individually. Difficult: yes. Impossible for Google: no way.
When Will They Do It?
In my opinion its not a matter of if, its a matter of when. The potential revenue from the gaming industry is too big for Google to ignore. Oh, and if you still arent convinced, consider this: microsoft, one of Googles main competitors, also produces the Xbox 360. If microsoft decided to integrate their newly launched adCenter into Xbox games, would it really surprise anyone if Google countered by announcing a deal with Sony or Nintendo to integrate in-game dynamic advertising for the PS3 or the Wii?more
