Call of Duty 3. Massively successful launch.

From level as chapter to level as progress of the character. More motivating!

Gamified the game. Measure my usage of the game. I get medals.

The core is a combination of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. The key is in the right balance between the two.

Danger! you can kill intrinsic motivation by having the wrong extrinsic motivation.

steph-note: I wrote about that recently!

Stopped kids from stealing by rewarding them for it. Also, kids in school.

José Luis de Vicente: On the Mythologies of Play

Not about how videogames are going to change the world, but in how they have already changed it. 3 stories.

Fold it. Solve puzzles for science. Figure out enzyme structure.

Gold farmers in China. Exploit the game to accumulate in-game currency or virtual goods which they sell to western gamers.
