- 19. Why not consoleand MMORPG? • Fact 1: console games are better designed and value-added products compared to social and mobile games (2010’s Grand Theft Auto 4 cost $ 100 million) • Fact 2: console and MMORPG gamers are more critical than others, assigning great value to elaborate graphics and storylines, and are in general less tolerant to in-game advertsing when it is clearly out of the context. • This drives the industry focus increasingly on the player and less on the advertiser (Last year, Microsoft shut down its dynamic in-game advertising division called Massive). • Now, big producers like Eletronic Arts control the dynamic in-game advertising display for their games. The trend is that only games where advertising is a natural part of the storyline (like Fifa Soccer and NBA Live) will carry in-game advertising.

Editor's Notes
- #21 When we think about the word integration another word immediately comes to our mind, and that is connections. So, that’s why for the last few years, every time that someone had to speak about integrated campaigns, he presented an image similar to that:
- #22 Specially nowadays, with all these social media tools and APIs that made ease to integrate websites to Facebook fanpages, to twitter recipients to instamgram accounts, and so on, every digital campaign born with all parts totally connected. But there is another kind of integration that is much more important for brands and businesses and was only made possible because of the internet. Different from this flat, let’s say, horizontal integration, I’m talking about a deeper vertical integration.
- #23 This allows brand managers to assign different values for each part depending on the role that this part plays in the campaign In my view, this perspective of integrated campaigns eases the decision-making process.This is very well illustrated in the Big Skinny Case that we read this week. When you understand your consumer’s journey and the different roles that each part of your campaign performs to convince him in this process, and more important, which are those that influences more taking in account your product, brand and target characteristics, it helps you to distribute your investments much better.
- #24 More and more, analytics tools are lining up with that vision, allowing the tracking different KPIs configuration of integrated dashboards.This is an example of a dashboard from the interactive advertising bureau to track performance of a branded game or application.You can notice that it put together campaigns and financial metrics, and considers 4 steps of the consumers journey: awareness, appreciation, action, advocacy.
- #25 Branded games are a kind of investment that has a high potential of buzz but with high production costs.In terms of investment distribution, the decision of creating a game as a big part of an integrated campaign involves shifting budget from media buying to production. This means making a big bet on earning organic buzz media. So, the keypoints to consider are:Be 100% sure that is the most suitable form of communication for your brand’s promise and target behavior.Remember: Casual gamers are a much bigger audience than game fans- Make the right decisions about development: nothing would save a poorly done game - A branded game has to work as a communication tool for your brand, generating buzz. Integrate that with the right social optimization technics and tools: do a careful planning, so you won’t end up spending money to communicate the game to avoid total disaster
