Games Outpace Movies, Music in 2007
Tags: Gaming
“On average, an astonishing 9 games were sold every second of every day of the year.” — Michael D. Gallagher, CEO, Entertainment Software Association.
The gaming industry has long been bigger than the movie industry. Now its growth outpaces that of both the movie and music industries. While movies grew only 1.8% and music fell 10% in 2007, games grew a whopping 28.4%.
Soon, pretty girls won’t want to be movie or pop stars. They’ll want to be gamer babes.
Which just shows how big and mainstream the gaming industry now is. And yes, girls and games DO mix. *winks*
Let’s just hope the future gamer girls don’t think twice about their job. It has perils (in the form of harassments and double standards).
