An example information processing system executes a game application. The information processing system obtains user information for calculating information relating to sleep of a user, and calculates health information relating to sleep and/or fatigue of the user based on the obtained user information. The information processing system controls a game progress of the game application based on the health information.

An online game is provided to users via client computing devices. Gameplay metrics are determined for users of the online game based on actions taken by the users in the online game. Secondary games are provided, where the potential awards provided by the secondary games are determined based on the gameplay metrics of the users.

Methods for managing mini-games created and executed in a game cloud system are provided. One method includes providing a plurality of mini-games stored in the game cloud system. Each mini-game is created based on a video recording of a game play for a game title, and is shared in a social network. The method further includes identifying user interactions for each mini-game and ranking the mini-games based on the identified user interactions associated with each mini-game. Then, some or all of the mini-games are displayed on a game site and/or a social network site in an order that is based on the ranking.

Systems and methods are disclosed for interactive content management. In one implementation, one or more inputs are received. The one or more inputs are processed to identify one or more content presentation surfaces. Based on an identification of the one or more content presentation surfaces, a first content item is modified. The first content item, as modified, is presented in relation to the one or more content presentation surfaces.

An exemplary virtual reality presentation system streams virtual reality data representative of a persistent three-dimensional (3D) virtual reality world configured to be experienced by a user using a media player device while the virtual reality data is streaming. The persistent 3D virtual reality world is configured for one-to-many streaming and to dynamically persist independently of whether the user is experiencing the persistent 3D virtual reality world. The virtual reality presentation system further accesses video data representative of two-dimensional (2D) video content and integrates the video data with the virtual reality data while the virtual reality data is streaming. The video data and the virtual reality data are integrated such that the 2D video content is viewable by the user within the persistent 3D virtual reality world as the user experiences the persistent 3D virtual reality world. Corresponding methods are also disclosed.

Secondary games are provided, where the potential awards provided by the secondary games are determined based on the gameplay metrics of the users.

Customized wait state experiences for an avatar in a virtual universe are provided by determining user alternative wait context preferences, selecting alternative wait state content objects accordingly, creating a wait state context in the virtual universe system using the alternative wait state content objects, and transporting the waiting avatar to the newly created wait state context for the duration of the wait. The custom context can include scenery, sounds, and even information streams and feeds. The avatar is optionally returned to the original context upon an event, such as a customer service representative, being available and ready to interact with the user. Artificial intelligence processes are optionally used to determine probable wait state context preferences for the user. Rewards may be given to the user for waiting, and for completing games or challenges.
