Leader in Content Delivery Networking (CDN) to Share Results from Consumer Gaming Trends Survey

TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Limelight Networks, Inc. (“Limelight”) (Nasdaq:LLNW), a global leader in digital content delivery, today announced its participation at the Game Developers Conference (GDC), taking place March 2-6, 2015 in San Francisco, CA.

Limelight’s Senior Director of Marketing Strategy, Jason Thibeault, will be presenting on "Power-ups, Super Suits, and Epic Raids: Deconstructing the Game Experience.” In this session, Jason will identify which elements of popular games hold gamers’ interests and share research findings from Limelight’s recent report, Consumer Gaming Trends, which explores global trends in consumer video gaming and the video game industry.

Who:

      Jason Thibeault, senior director of marketing strategy, Limelight Networks
 

What:

With the gaming industry’s tremendous growth, the opportunity for game developers is ripe but developing and delivering a game that maintains a user’s interest is challenging. Gamers have become so hypersensitive to the overall game experience that it takes more than just flashy graphics, a captivating storyline, or smooth mechanics to keep them playing and paying. Jason will analyze well-known games and identify which elements attract and retain gamers. Jason will also highlight research findings from Limelight’s Consumer Gaming Trends report to provide insights into how game developers can deliver compelling game experiences.
 

When:

Thursday, March 5, 2015 from 4 p.m. – 5 p.m. PST
 

Where:

Moscone Convention Center, West Hall, Room 2024
747 Howard Street, San Francisco, CA

Jason will also be presenting for Limelight on the “Five Ways to Deliver a Great Game Experience” in a webinar tomorrow, Thursday, February 26 at 11 a.m. PST, hosted by Gamasutra. In addition to sharing data from the Consumer Gaming Trends report, Jason will identify the five components of a successful game experience that will maximize engagement in today’s competitive gaming environment.
