Download or read book The Economics of Online Gaming written by Andrew Wagner and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2020-02-14 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Economics of Online Gaming covers basic economic concepts, unique economic issues, and general economic themes. This book is made from the connections that the author saw when he compared his experience inside a video game with what he learned through a formal study of economic theory. Set in the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) of Eternal Lands, it follows the true story of Mr. Mind, a gamer who builds a business inside the game world that he calls RICH. This business grows from a small start-up to an unregulated natural monopoly that abuses its market power by intentionally losing money to drive competitors out of business. RICH becomes so influential that it breaks the market process with a unique case of regulatory capture. Through this story, the book demonstrates how economic thinking is absorbed by experimenting inside an online video game. The Economics of Online Gaming covers basic economic concepts, unique economic issues, and general economic themes. Each of these topics begins with the context of a story and continues with an explanation of the economic theory behind it, finishing with a relevant real-world connection. It supports economic theory in an emotional way that cannot be shared through math or charts or graphs. Appendix B provides a comprehensive outline of ideas for teaching and discussion in each chapter.

Download or read book The Business of Gaming written by William R. Eadington and published by University of Nevada, Reno Bureau of Business & Economic Research. This book was released on 1999 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a sampling of state-of-the-art business and economic research that the new generation of gaming operations has spawned. Rather than "back of the envelope" and "seat of the pants" management, today's gaming companies rely on strategic planning, ROI analysis, customer tracking systems, focus groups, quantitative analysis, direct mail marketing, and customer service standards to improve performance. As competition for the discretionary dollar has increased, and as gaming has wedged itself into the center of modern entertainment offerings, the need for systematic and scientific analysis in the business of gaming has grown accordingly.
