IBM Going After Gamers With Their
Grid... Again

IBM Going After Gamers With Their
Grid... Again 08/18/2004 05:22 AM
Despite running into all sorts of problems with their massively overhyped grid/utility computing system, IBM now says they want to go after online gaming companies, to let IBM host the games on their system. Of course, this isn't exactly new. They announced something similar more than two years ago, and it doesn't sound like they've gotten much traction with it. Of course, in the article, IBM spins this by saying they've been "sizing up" the market for two years, which basically means they've been trying and failing to sell into this market. However, they've clearly seen enough press coverage about the online gaming market, that they decided it was time to go public with their second major attempt at the market.

Notebooks For Gamers?

Notebooks For Gamers? 02/11/2004 11:07 PM
Every time I wonder why anyone would buy a desktop machine again, when notebooks are quite powerful and much more useful when portable, someone reminds me of the gamers. The gamers always want more powerful and customizable desktop machines so they can do more with their machines. However, the notebook makers are realizing that the desktop market may be a dying one, and thus are trying their best to create notebook computers for gamers. Of course, as someone points out in the article, the price difference will still make this a very small market. I also wonder if it wouldn't help to make these gaming notebooks more easily customizable, since part of the appeal of desktops seems to be the ability to modify them.

Is it going to be a commercial success like The Simpsons: Hit & Run (another one on my daily play list)? Probably not, but that doesn't make it any less entertaining. Even Janet is giving it two boobies up!...

A Brave New Gamer World

“ ‘We've got an entire group of people under age 30 who grew up playing video games,’ said Jim Gee, professor in the UW-Madison School of Education. ‘It's completely changing the way people think about education and the workplace.’

This ‘gamer generation’ includes some 90 million people in the U.S. alone, ages 15 to 35. In fact, sales of video games have now surpassed sales of TVs, DVDs and CDs….

A host of new data is suggesting that video games have created a new generation of employees and executives, bigger than the baby boomers, who will dramatically transform the workplace.

Researchers like John C. Beck and Mitchell Wade, authors of the book ‘Got Game: How the Gamer Generation is Reshaping Business Forever’ argue that managers who understand and harness this generation's distinct attributes will leap far ahead of the competition.

Beck and Wade say these 90 million rising professionals, through sheer numbers, will inevitably dominate business and are already changing the rules. Although many of the changes are positive, such as more open communication and creative problem solving, they have caused a generation gap that frustrates gamers and the boomers who manage them….” [The Capital Times, via Library Link of the Day]

Pro video gamers have it tough

Pro video gamers have it tough 07/26/2004 01:59 AM
Great K5 piece on the plight of the professional video-gamer, plagued by new game releases and vendors who build games for non-competition play.

In this, I am referring to the Cyberathlete Professional League's one time decision to switch from the Quake series, which they had been using since the start of their foundation, to a newer (and more popular) game at the time, the infamous Counter-Strike.

Now for most of the 'professional gamers' who have lived off their earnings from past CPL tournaments, this meant the end of their career unless they made the jump from Quake to Counter-Strike. Unfortunately, switching games is not as simple because both games have different sets of physics and gameplay; in Quake you battled one another one on one while Counter-Strike is a team-based game, the players usually in numbers of five.

Now, even more recently, the CPL has announced for their World Tour that they would be switching games once again, this time back to a duel based game. There will still be a Counter-Strike tournament during the event, but this leaves many to wonder how much more air time does Counter-Strike have before it finally gets shelved as well.
