Insight into the video games business
Checked out this podcast at Phil Spencer’s recommendation. Despite being an avid gamer in high school some 15 years ago, I knew very little about the actual video games business. Enter Gamecraft with its engaging discussions peppered with amusing historical anecdotes that together provide an excellent overview of how the once nascent video games industry grew into the behemoth it is today (and where it may go from here). As a consumer PE investor (i.e., non-tech background), I especially appreciated the technical explanations of the various business models the games industry has favored over the years. Gamecraft is highly recommended for prospective VC investors or any video games enthusiasts interested in learning about the business side.
