Online Game Disruption: Take everything, everything? EVERYTHING!
We've yet to see a big portal or game site take EVERYTHING. None of the older sites, have taken the long tail approach and accepted every game that comes their way.
Sure, Kongregate is trying with it's tag line "The YouTube of Games" but they are still more of a niche. Sure, Mochi Media takes everything but they are in the distribution business rather than a portal.
I am talking about a site that has the AAA traditional casual games, mixed with the weird and wacky of the wild west Flash game market.
Think, MSN Zone + Mochi Media's Library. How big a site could that be? How many eyeballs could you get?
It goes back to the saying (no I don't know where it came from) "Aggregate or be aggregated" The site that has 20,000 games with the filters to match the content, will be the winner of the online game space.
Screw the YouTube of games, I want to be the ESPN of online games!
