Routledge Studies in Innovation, Organiz The Video Game Industry: Formation, Present State, and Future, (Hardcover)

This book describes and defines video games as their own special medium. They are not pinball from which they grew, nor movies which they sometimes resemble. They are a unique form of entertainment based on meaningful interactions between individuals and machine across a growing sector of the population. The Video Game Industry provides a reference foundation for individuals seriously interested in the industry at the academic level. This book will serve as a reference in curricula associated with video game development for years to come.
