I've been thinking, what happens when ALL game ideas have been used. Where will game companies turn to next for inspiration or will it be more sequels with extra bonus stuff???? Well, thinking about it to my horror I realised that as more consoles enter the fray of best games system, ideas are sure to come thick and fast, but what happens when each console has exhasted its games? What will happen when THQ have brought out WWF Racer, WWF Puzzle Game, WWF Supermarket Sweep, WWF Buy This Game & Give Us Cash! etc? Where will THQ get an idea from? I don't know and although this won't happen for years and years it does spawn a small contest between consoles:
Who can think of a brilliant idea, that sells well!"
The point I'm trying to make is that will computer games as we know them stop? Will companies run out of ideas in the future....and if they do will we be ripped off by more pointless sequels? OK I know that this is a long, long, long, long way away and maybe by then people will turn to VR, but I still think that console owners have a doomed future (we're talking about the year 3000 here) But it doesn't matter, because we won't be here anyway at that time.
The reason I'm making this point is this: My 'It's Not That Far Away' message stated that sooner or later we'd hit a wall where technology could go no further. Many disagreed with me, which is fine, so now I put it to you will the production of GOOD VALUE games ever grind to a halt??? Will we ever have shelves stacked high with games that all do the same thing?? - I hope not!
