THE NEW RACE IN MARKETING

Joseph blogged about the competition with PS4 and Xbox 720.  These are the two most prestiges gaming consoles on the market and are sure to "wow" everyone with their next generations.  When asked which console I prefer, the answer is easy, PlayStation.

The PlayStation is better in my opinion for one clear reason, Blu Ray.  Being a huge movie fan, I want to watch my movies in the best quality possible, and the fact that I can use my gaming console to do that makes my life much easier.  Another bonus is that PlayStation Network is FREE!!! No monthly memberships needed to play with my friends on line.

Who knows what each company has up their sleeve for the future of gaming, but I am very excited to find out.

iPhone game advertisement

We have all seen the annoying ads that come up when we are trying to play Words with Friends, Solitaire, or even the new hit Mini Putt MatchUp.  Ads are annoying and can ruin your day, but luckily, for a small fee of $0.99 up to $2.99, you can purchase the ad free version of the game.  Buying the game is a hassle and no one wants to waste a buck on a silly iPhone game, but is it worth it??

  The 30 seconds wasted for these advertisements is wasted opportunity cost.  If I didn't have to sit around and wait, I could be done faster with my game and move on to more important things, such as homework or sleeping.  When you are playing 10 people on Words, 30 seconds adds up to 5 MINUTES!!! 

If you were told you were going to have to wait 5 Minutes for advertisements, are you going to consider spending the dollar?????
