Three Trends Driving Big Games - Social Un-tethered Games With Computers In Them
I think there are three key trends that will drive this concept of Big Games way beyond it’s current niche role:

Current Trends:
  1. The rise of mobile converged devices - computer, phone, internet access, camera, audio
  2. The rise of the mobile “evernet” - persistent connections for mobile devices (3G, 4G and Wimax)
  3. Co-creation - the growth youtube, wikipedia, blogs, podcasts is an indication of motivation
Future trend:
  • Augmented reality - location based meta data in the real world, imagine wikipedia overlaying the street your walking down.
