New video gaming systems are coming out that track every joint of your body. It’s basically going to become a normal thing for us to allow Microsoft to put a three-dimensional camera on top of your television set looking at you, which sounds like a Big Brother scenario if ever I heard one, but, still, it’s what we’re going to allow. Jesse Schell

If you’re a game company, you want to create a singular gaming experience, and part of that is doing stuff that nobody else is doing. If you’re trying to create a game that feels different, you’re going to create a lead that feels different. It’s not going to be just another white guy. Aisha Tyler

Digital intimacy ruins the appetite for the real thing. So, when kids are gaming or even when spouses are gaming, they lose their appetite for genuine intimacy.

It’s not as if I’ve never been awkward myself. I’m a big gamer, so I’ve had access to that type of personality. I used to go to these LAN parties; that was before high-speed Internet. The only way you could get lag-free gaming was to haul these huge computers to people’s houses. Thomas Middleditch

The world of online marketing, where HubSpot operates, though, has a reputation for being kind of grubby.

Daniel Lyons

A lot of gaming and a lot of interaction is no longer physical; it’s all digital and at a distance.

The social element has really transformed the gaming experience. Bobby Kotick
I still rate the bit in the first ‘Tomb Raider’ where the T Rex comes round the end of the valley and roars as one of the most awesome gaming experiences, and I still adore ‘Tomb Raider’ for putting that in my life. Rhianna Pratchett

I’ve always thought that gaming and YouTube and the web is a very post-punk extravaganza. Malcolm Mclaren
