Very interesting article, and actually surprising. It's not the typical corporate articles you find on xbox.com. Jesse Schell gave a great presentation at DICE earlier this year about the psychology of achievements and how it's going to affect the future. The guy is like the Willy Wonka of videogames. :D
I'll see if I can find the full video.

The whole thing get's real bizarre around Part 3, 1min30sec. This is what got a lot of negative paranoia outrage on the internet about Jesse Schell working for "Big Brother" and "SkyNet". He's just predicting what's bound to come. Don't kill the messenger, yo.
