When parents or gamers ask me, 'What's the best game to play?' I say that playing face-to-face is more beneficial than playing online.

If you make it a game, gamers will play it no matter what your motivation is in making it.

There are people who are very dismissive of games and gamers.

Game designers are obsessed with emotion. How do we create the emotions that we want gamers to feel, and how can we really make it this intense, emotional experience?

Surveys of thousands of gamers have shown that they're more likely to play real music if they play a music videogame. So it's an interesting relationship where the games aren't replacing something we do in real life, they're serving as a springboard to a goal we might have in real life, like learning to play an instrument.

Gamers always believe that an epic win is possible and that it's always worth trying, and trying now. Gamers don't sit around.
