VIEW ONLINE Why EA's former boss believes the 3D tech that powers video games will make way more money outside of gaming
There's a good chance that the last mobile video game you played was powered by Unity Technologies, the 3D engine used in most of the industry's smartphone games, from "Pokemon Go" to "Super Mario Run"
