But th ething you have to understand is that the crowd youre referring to, the "casual", dont pay their bills. They dont frequent blogs, websites, ad dollars.....thats like asking Fox News to endorse president Obama, these journalists are employees of a company, and theyre employees of a company that caters to a specific audience, what NEEDS to happen is there needs to be a company or organization perhaps who reports and blogs and dictates for a casual gamer, however is there a market for that? Im not so sure we should expect our gaming websites to morph, they cater to "us", we need NEW websites and journalists to cater to the shift in demographic. Its tricky, thats for sure. |
What's more important for them right now is expanding into new markets and getting more mindshare. Who cares if the casuals don't pay their bills now, at least they have a foothold so that maybe next time they sell something a lot more people will have eyeballs on it then just the current core demoographic, who is still buying the yearly CODs/Halos/core games.
The tears of the so called "core" and "hardcore" demographics are delicious.
