  • Erable Genre Cross Pollination

Abstract The generic categorization of video games is fundamental to discourse about games, but specific developments surrounding game genres are not often discussed. As games have matured, there has been considerable genre cross pollination. Genre monikers have become complex and they differ from source to source. Originally genre categorization was straightforward and almost universal. Games were divided into simple categories. Many review outlets and academic works now list upwards of forty different genres for games and these differ from publication to publication. Many of these genre monikers are simply the combination of other genres. While there is a lack of agreement upon these specific terms, the result is clear: Video games are evolving beyond the current genre nomenclature.

    Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC 20554 In the Matter of ) ) ENTERTAINMENT SOFTWARE ASSOCIATION ) CG Docket No. 10-213 ) CG Docket No. Petition for Waivers of 47 C.F.R. §§ 14.1 et. seq. ) To: Chief, Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau PETITION OF THE ENTERTAINMENT SOFTWARE ASSOCIATION Christian Genetski, Sr. Vice President & General Counsel F. William LeBeau Michael Warnecke, Sr. Policy Counsel Leighton T. Brown Cory Fox, Policy Counsel Holland & Knight LLP Entertainment Software Association 2099 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, 575 7th Street NW, #300 Suite 100 Washington, DC 20004 Washington, DC 20006 (202) 223-2400 (202) 955-3000 Its Attorneys March 21, 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Entertainment Software Association urges the Commission to implement the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act (“CVAA”) requirements for “advanced communications services” in keeping with the careful balance Congress intended when it empowered the Commission to protect innovation by granting class and individual waivers for equipment and services that have a “primary purpose” other than ACS. Video game industry products and services clearly meet that standard. Their primary purpose is game play, not ACS. Indeed, the primary purpose of the offerings encompassed by this waiver request is coextensive with the very reason the video game industry exists – to deliver entertaining game play experiences to consumers. Video games have long been recognized—by creators and consumers, fans and critics, curators and regulators—as a distinct entertainment genre. Fundamentally, these products and services are designed to entertain players, not to provide telecommunications service between individuals. Although they may offer online functions, many of those functions do not qualify as ACS.

  • Sony Computer Entertainment Case Analysis
    Sony Computer Entertainment Quentin J Thomas University of Florida July 2011 This case was prepared and written by Quentin Thomas as a final project for the Master of Arts International Business program at The University of Florida. This case is intended for discussion and freely distributed courtesy of Queso Media Group via RapConQueso.com. This case is to be neither redistributed for profit or without proper credit given to the appropriate source. 1 INTRODUCTION Wednesday, June 6th 2011, Jack Tretton, President and C.E.O. of Sony Computer Entertainment America, is preparing to take the stage for the Sony E3 press conference being held in Los Angeles, California. It is about 60 days since the PlayStation Network has been hacked and approximately three months since the devastating earthquake and tsunami that brought much of Japan to a stand-still. Both are expected to cost Sony Corporation billions of dollars—a big difference from the predicted profits for the 2011 fiscal year. Now he will address six thousand consumers, some victims of the recent hack, about the future of Sony Computer Entertainment. (E3, 2011) INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY The video game industry has seen huge leaps since the mid 1960’s. In 1966, a German-born inventor named Ralph Baer began work on what would be the first home video game console. The console was called “Brown Box,” powered by D-cells and connected to a black and white television. (Orlando, 2007) It was later named Odyssey and released by Magnavox in August of 1972. (Magnavox, 2011) Odyssey received lukewarm sales, but Baer started something he probably never imagined.
