New online competitors and business models are challenging traditional media players.

Little will provide insight into the speed and main beneficiaries of this transformation of the media industry. The objective of this report is to enable: n Media corporations to identify opportunities for vertical or horizontal integration, as well as to guide portfolio optimizations and go to market strategy n Financial investors to identify the most attractive market segments and acquisition targets n Policy makers to identify areas where excessive value capture is leading to economic imbalances during the transformation n Academia to build on a strong base of data and a framework, which can be used to deepen research into the transformation of individual segments of the media industry “Flow of Funds” Methodology Arthur D.

    DEUTSCHE TV-PLATTFORM: HYBRID TV - BETTER TV HBBTV AND MUCH, MUCH MORE Deutsche TV Platform (DTVP) was founded more than 25 years ago to introduce and develop digital media tech- nologies based on open standards. Consequently, DTVP was also involved in the introduction of HbbTV. When the HbbTV initiative started at the end of 2008, three of the four participating companies were members of the DTVP: IRT, Philips, SES Astra. Since then, HbbTV has played an important role in the work of DTVP. For example, DTVP did achieve the activation of HbbTV by default on TV sets in Germany; currently, HbbTV 2.0 is the subject of a ded- icated DTVP task force within the Working Group Smart Media. HbbTV is a perfect blueprint for the way DTVP works by promoting the exchange of information and opinions between market participants, stakeholders and social groups, coordinating their various interests. In addition, DTVP informs the public about technological develop- ments and the introduction of new standards.

  • Markets and Distribution Channels
    SeGaBu project 1 (7) SERIOUS GAMES AND BUSINESS Markets and distribution channels Markets and distribution channels are very closely connected to the business model and monetization of the game itself. In this document business model and monetization is not dealt with. Introduction to serious games market Serious games application areas are many. In the book Serious Games - Foundations, Concept and Practice the following application areas were presented (Dörner, Dörner, Göbel, Effelsberg . & Wiemeyer, 2016, p. 320) Defence & Civil Forces Culture & Management & Tourism Business Pervasive Games Training Prevention & Rehabilitation Education Health Social Awareness Fig. 1. Serious games application areas Serious games for training and simulation Training and simulation games may represent the biggest and economically most relevant application area for serious games. The examples for this group are military training and simulation, civil relief organizations (police forces), training environments for service staff in various service sectors (bus/car drivers, pilots/flight attendants, etc.). The games can be either in-house training or public game markets. (Dörner et al., 2016, 321.) Digital educational games Edugames aim to teach users information in an enjoyable way (Alvarez, 2008, 19). Digital educational games are quite close to serious games for training and simulation. The main difference is the target user groups of children, students, trainees, families and elderly players. Many educational games exist, which can be used either at school or as supplementary learning material. Some digital educational games originate from research projects. (Dörner et al., 2016, 322.) SeGaBu project 2 (7) SERIOUS GAMES AND BUSINESS Health games The third big application field of serious games represents games for health, covering prevention, rehabilitation, physical exercises, dance or nutrition aiming to support health in general and to enforce a behavior change towards better, more active and heathier lifestyle.

Egnoto St. John Fisher College __________________________________________________________________ The goal of the current study is to further conceptualize and define the term “hardcore” as it relates to video game culture. Past research indicates that members of cultural subdivisions favor their own group versus others due to perceived commonalities (Durkheim, 1915; Tajfel, 1970). In gaming culture, the subdivisions of “hardcore” and “casual” games/gamers have become especially salient in recent years.

  • From Girlfriend to Gamer: Negotiating Place in the Hardcore/Casual Divide of Online Video Game Communities
    FROM GIRLFRIEND TO GAMER: NEGOTIATING PLACE IN THE HARDCORE/CASUAL DIVIDE OF ONLINE VIDEO GAME COMMUNITIES Erica Kubik A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2010 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Amy Robinson Graduate Faculty Representative Kristine Blair Donald McQuarie ii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor The stereotypical video gamer has traditionally been seen as a young, white, male; even though female gamers have also always been part of video game cultures. Recent changes in the landscape of video games, especially game marketers’ increasing interest in expanding the market, have made the subject of women in gaming more noticeable than ever. This dissertation asked how gender, especially females as a troubling demographic marking difference, shaped video game cultures in the recent past. This dissertation focused primarily on cultures found on the Internet as they related to video game consoles as they took shape during the beginning of the seventh generation of consoles, between 2005 and 2009. Using discourse analysis, this dissertation analyzed the ways gendered speech was used by cultural members to define not only the limits and values of a generalizable video game culture, but also to define the idealized gamer. This dissertation found that video game cultures exhibited the same biases against women that many other cyber/digital cultures employed, as evidenced by feminist scholars of technology. Specifically, female gamers were often perceived as less authoritative of technology than male gamers. This was especially true when the concept “hardcore” was employed to describe the ideals of gaming culture.
