From MMOs to Web3: James Hursthouse on What’s Next in Gaming

From MMOs to Web3, James Hursthouse has seen it all—and now he’s sharing what’s next in gaming.

In this episode, Peggy Anne Salz sits down with the founder of Greenstone Initiatives to explore a future where players co-own their experiences, AI augments creativity, and new business models put power back in the hands of developers and fans.

James reflects on his journey—from the early days of MMO infrastructure to building global partnerships and helping shape Canada’s games ecosystem. Along the way, he unpacks what’s real (and what’s hype) about Web3, and why the next generation of games will be defined by instant access, ethical data, and cross-media convergence.

Whether you’re building games, investing in the space, or just curious about where it’s all heading, this is your front-row seat to the future.
