Yeah I decided to try running ads on this post... the service I am using seems to be fairly good. I hate pop-up ads, so I tried to find something integrated into the post as a whole. Today was mostly a trial run to see how it works. I might continue to put ads on this way depending on how the community reacts. Might put up a poll in a future article to see how people react to it. What is your opinion on it?

Oh... my bad. Thanks for the correction!

edit: I actually have to thank you again, when I went to fix the mistake I realized there was a fair number of other spelling mistakes my auto-correct didn't catch the first time. If you hadn't told me I may never have noticed.

Thanks for the excellent writeup. As an investor and an old person (i.e., on the wrong side of both 30 and 40) who doesn't game, I found your discussion of valuation and monetization of video games helpful. To the extent you now want to write for investors (and not gamers), what may seem basic/mundane to you can still be very informative to people like myself who aren't active in the area but looking to learn. Most appreciated. I look forward to reading your other pieces and seeing how your writing and analysis progress.

Thank you! The reason that I actually wrote up the second part of the article is because in my first article I referenced why the new COD game was valuable. When I was writing this article I realized that a fair amount of my audience probably didn’t really understand why I thought I was valuable. Glad you enjoyed it!
