Funny News: The Impact of Episodic Gaming

April 19, 2006: The Impact of Episodic Gaming

GameDailyBiz has a piece up looking at what episodic content is, and what it means to the future of the games industry. From the article: "Our age is one of aging. Mainstream gamers are now older on average than they have ever been. When you are single and unemployed, it is easy to play The Godfather for nine straight hours the day the game hits the shelf. When you are married, it becomes tougher. When you have kids, it might be impossible. It is difficult to slice some time for yourself. And in that slice, you have to carve a portion for gaming. It is no wonder casual games that require no more than 10 minutes to play continue to grow in popularity.

It's one she built herself, but she encourages you to really make it your own. So as you sit in the park, you fiddle with your phone and are able to tweak the engine of your new racecar to match your specifications while you enjoy the sunshine...

...Forza Motorsports 2 is bigger and badder than the first game in many ways. There's a greater degree of customization available with over 300 cars to choose from. There's also a mega eleven person multiplayer available over Live. Don't forget the 360's new driving wheel, and Forza 2 will be the most realistic driving experience available for the next-gen.
