On the go gaming has to achieve a certain goal, i.e. angry birds, a MMOesque game involves a lot more of a time commitment. Would be interesting to see how a game w/ a large penetration would work in a place like NYC though, especially, if you had to physically go to certain places to level up, etc… and also what types of rewards you would offer the player.

I’d wager that “immersive” and “casual” will be mutually exclusive categories.
