The PLA noted that they had a big increase in dental expenses and Type I diabetes in new recruits, and capped the game?
Seriously, China traditionally has not eaten sweets (candy) in large amounts)in its diet. This is changing now. The McDonald Effect quick food diet is starting to show up in youth, and it is not muscle derived weight gain. The effects on social spending for health care is disturbing projection rise, to say the least.
Not sure if that is the answer to your question, but may be a factor in whether games like Candy Crush, will be popular with those that have final say in media subject promotion.
Social standards are carefully watched by Asian Governments, to promote acceptable social norms and values. They are proud of their eastern culture (and rightly so), and just might step in and 'shape'content? Think of there are USA PTA and school boards and government PRs, forcing changing in the school lunch diets and taking out the candy vending machines.
This probably sounds silly, but VG companies need to focus on more neutral game plots. Content matters?
If more conservative party values develop in America (not everything as game subject matter), violent and marginal subjects may be pressured out of games. Drone Wars and Call Of Duty will be focused on 'overseas enemies'? Doubt we shall see Drones Wars In USA Streets produced?
Or---> were you merely referring to "Candy Crush" type success in China for GLUU, as GLUU has had many efforts in Chinese Game Market (since 2007)? And, thus, no evidence of Candy Crush type VG success in sales?
Maybe its as simple as Candy isn't a national passion for Asians? Have other things front-and-center in their thinking.
Due to traffic congestion . . . bike racing and motor-cross might be better game content format than street rods? I could foresee Bike Game where live helmet cam shots are folded into its goal content . . . a social face book bike game. Or skateboard game, that live votes for user-ride feats and unique content shots.
Any guesses on whether GLUU stock price is stabilizing near its present daily price range? That is the bet I will be taking next week. Can't just be sitting on the sidelines, as GLUU stock potential in coming 6-9 months is gauging nicely also past 50% up probability. Daily volume is near normal now, concurrently.
Does not GLUU sell its stuff (predominantly) from the internet cloud and app stores . . . sounds like that business method is greatly recession and weather effect resistance business model.
Its petro/vehicle cost rise free, park and play?
