Console manufacturers and first party publishers fund video game developers to create games exclusively for their console platforms. They advertise and market these internally developed games. Video game developers create games and can range from individuals to large companies with specialized roles. Most developers receive financial support and marketing from external video game publishers. Games are then distributed to retailers by third party distributors and sold to the public, with retailers negotiating shelf space and promotions with publishers.

A game developer is a software developer that creates video games. Developers often specialize in certain game genres or consoles. Third-party developers are usually hired by video game publishers to develop games. Publishers are responsible for financing, marketing, and distributing games. Console manufacturers produce and distribute gaming consoles and work with third-party developers to release new games. Distribution and retail involve shipping physical games to stores worldwide. Outsourcing allows companies to contract outside services to reduce costs. The media helps advertise games through television, radio, newspapers and magazines.
Finished task 1
Games developers are involved in the creation and production of games across various platforms and their work involves design or programming. Games development is a multi-billion pound industry that can take teams of up to 200 professionals up to three years to make a game from concept to finished product. Video game publishers finance development, distribute published games, and perform other functions like deciding on licenses, localization, packaging, and marketing. Console manufacturers serve as gatekeepers that approve games for their platforms and provide support to developers, while having power over what titles get priority marketing.

An Analysis Of Open Source Business Models
An open source business model summary:
1) Open source software is developed by a community of volunteers who freely share the source code. This allows many developers to improve the product at low cost.
2) Companies can build businesses around open source software in several ways - by distributing the software, providing support services, or developing proprietary products that incorporate open source code.
3) The main business models are distributors (who sell support for open source software), software producers (who develop proprietary products using open source components), and third party service providers (who offer paid support for open source projects). These models generate revenue from support contracts, software/service sales, and consulting.

Mind map
- 1. Console Manufacturers or first party publishers are companies that publish games, advertise and fund for the developers of the game. A video game publisher is a company that publishes video games that they have either developed internally or have had developed by a video game developer. A video game developer is a software developer, which specializes in video game development – the process and related disciplines of creating video games. A game developer can range from a single person who undertakes all tasks to a large business with employee responsibilities split between individual disciplines, such as programming, design, art, testing, etc. Most game developer companies have video game publisher financial and usually marketing support. Self-funded developers are known as independent or indie developers and usually make indie games. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_developer Companies outsource to avoid certain types of costs. They outsource the non-core activities. Among the reasons companies else elect to outsource include the avoidance of regulations, high taxes, high energy cost, and costs associated with defined benefits in labour- union contracts and taxes for government-mandated benefits. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outsourcing The press and the media both help with making products popular. Things they do to help are usually reviews, trailers and print adverts. Distributors sell in to retailers, delivering games direct from their warehouse to the retailer. This is where the public buys the game. Retailers allocate shelf space for titles, through publisher/distribution, negotiation and organise point of sale promotions. Mobile and social gaming both can use programs like Java and IOS. Games like this are very cheap to make but can also be very addicting. Developers using features such as being able to get help in-game or buy extra items, can make more money. Console Manufacturers/First Party Publishers
