What explains the massive worldwide success of video games such as Fortnite, Minecraft, and Pokémon Go? Game companies and their popularity are poorly understood and often ignored from the standpoint of traditional business strategy. Yet this industry generates billions in revenue by thinking creatively about digital distribution, free-to-play content, and phenomena like e-sports and live streaming. What lessons can we draw from its major successes and failures about the future of entertainment? One Up offers a pioneering empirical analysis of innovation and strategy in the video game industry to explain how it has evolved from a fringe activity to become a mainstream form of entertainment. Joost van Dreunen, a widely recognized industry expert with over twenty years of experience, analyzes how game makers, publishers, and platform holders have tackled strategic challenges to make the video game industry what it is today. Using more than three decades of rigorously compiled industry data, he demonstrates that video game companies flourish when they bring the same level of creativity to business strategy that they bring to game design. Filled with case studies of companies such as Activision Blizzard, Apple, Electronic Arts, Epic Games, Microsoft, Nexon, Sony, Take-Two Interactive, Tencent, and Valve, this book forces us to rethink common misconceptions around the emergence of digital and mobile gaming. One Up is required reading for investors, creatives, managers, and anyone looking to learn about the major drivers of change and growth in contemporary entertainment.

This is a topic that comes up from time to time and I’m looking forward to the opinions of men and women. The roles of women in our modern society are constantly changing to keep up with the times. There are many independent females who are often making more money than their male counterparts. Many women are single parents and run their households. The male and female roles in relationships and marriages are no longer set in stone. The question then becomes with all of these new powers females often become the decision makers in the home. So when the right man finally comes along that she can’t live without, is it ok for her to move forward and propose to him? Some people will agree with this notion while others will outright disagree. Women have fought for equal rights and equality in all aspects of life, so why shouldn’t they have the ability to ask the man that they are in love with for his hand in marriage? It is a natural progression in the evolutionary process. Let the debate begin. Chime in with your opinion on this controversial topic of conversation.
