Expert Insights on Video Game Industry

The Video Game Industry is the business sector involved with the development, marketing, and sale of video and computer games. This industry was once a niche market and now generates more than $7 billion annually in the U.S. alone. The video game industry can be classified into two broad disciplines: software and hardware. Software refers to the publishing, design, and integration of video games; hardware refers to the consoles and peripherals that are used to operate or play video games.
