After the jump is the presentation from the packed Social Gaming panel at the Game Developers Summit. It's full of good stats thanks to working with a great set of panelists. I also spoke on a panel on Friday, and Adam was nice enough to liveblog, Raising Venture Financing for your Startup.
And lastly, just as I've done previously, some of the memorably moments from the past week:
Joking about their success in selling Reindeer poop last holiday season.
"If people say shit don't sell, then just make a virtual version." -- Sulka Haro (Sulake/Habbo)
On creating new MMOs.
"No IPs, they saddle a company down. We look at our company as being perfect for creating new products. We don't want to saddle ourselves with up to five+ years with someone else's ideas." -- Min Ho Kim (Nexon).
On why sharded communities may never get proper economies.
"Our free-market economy only worked when we went over approximately 50,000 players." -- Eyjolfur Gudmundsson (CCP/Eve Online)
On how to simultaneously reduce flaming and monetize it.
"We charge $1 for a shout that everyone, on every server, can see what you say. Then we charge $2 to reply back, and $4 to reply again. It becomes one big game of revenge." -- Alex Xu (Giant) for their Chinese MMO, ZT Online. Yeah.. the guys that are IPOing.
(Presentation from Monday's talk is after the jump.)
