The Digital Download Game World:
There was a time when digitally downloadable content (DLC) on a console or mobile phone meant users could spend a few dollars to purchase a token game enhancment or lame mini-game. Expectations were low and a big part of the novelty was in the digital transaction itself.
Fast forward to today, the game industry is rushing headlong into digital downloads and we are seeing a corresponding boom in the quantity of titles. Digital distribution offers a crucial portal for new developers to get their projects out to the marketplace and in front of players. But gamer expectations have not stood still, and players are becoming more selective about where they put their cash.
As users demand ever more for their game purchase dollar, many developers have approached pricing and production budgets differently, trying to find the perfect balance. This has resulted in a crowded marketplace and overwhelming choice for gamers. Game releases are so varied in scope, genre, price and quality, with such limited coverage and advertising, that users are looking for resources to help find the the best games for their online dollar.
