At the moment on all consoles games are great. You get the occasional few games that are total tripe, but mostly they're pretty good. The graphics are amazing so is the gameplay and with every new release these two things seem to get better and better, and people like to see better graphics and expect them to be twice as amazing as a game previously released. This has happened on the PS2, but it has taken over a year and has not improved amazingly but is still pleasing. For examaple, Red Faction was one of the early releases for PS2 and the graphics were good and the gameplay was the best for FPS that I had ever played. Now I've seen new screen shots of Red Faction 2 and it looks much, much better, but obviously I don't what the gameplay is like so I can't say much for that except it should be as good as the first one if not better.
See how much video games have improved since they came out.But where will it end? Eventually games will have improved so much that they cannot be improved anymore. That probably won't be for a very long time but just imagine what games will be like. Playing a game that looks real, sounds real and feels real!
A MGS where you are Snake, your in first person view all the time and your sneaking around, it would seem pretty real and would be quite cool. Your heart would beat faster as you hide behind a crate hoping that the approching guard does not see you. In gun fights it would be cool and change to a Time Crisis type game because you would still be in a first person view. Everytime you get hit you feel it slightly.
Or flight simulaters. You feel the Gs as you do some awesome manuvers at the risk of blacking out. I think it would be great for training pilots though.
The bad thing with this is though is that some people will forget that hey are in the real world or won't be able to tell whether they are in the real life of still in the game.
But somewhere along the line games developers are going to run out of ideas and since the graphics or gameplay can't be improved people won't be so impressed and so they won't be new releases and no new games will bought which will mean the end of gaming because game developers will spend alot of money making the game that no one buys. But this wont happen for a very long time so we don't have to worry really. All good things must end I guess...

Yeah I spose...
Yes but that all depends on new things being invented...new galaxies ect. Just imagine if a new sport is invented...that means more scope for new games......or a new type of transport is invented...again new games can be based on this...like GT3....the 10th seque to this could be alot different as in say 20 years time news cars will be invented. If GT was set in the 80's the gameplay would have been slower and less enjoyable. Or in 20 years time cars couild be alot faster meaning gameplay and new ideas can arise from it...se what i mean...i suppose reall it all depends on the evolution of real life things...
Pop if anyone wants to reply....
I suppose but eventually, like in 50+ years or something developers are going to run out of ideas to make original games...
Good topic....i think though that there is no end.....things will just get better...like u say with red faction...u thought it was top notch and maybe couldn't get better...but it can....but unless you have seen the imrovements then u cant imagine it...
