There is one question a lot of people are asking will games become more excitingthan movies? that is another question yet to be answered, the problem is designers cannot make one exciting game after another and the same in the movies not every film is enjoyable. Every gamer should of heard about the Final Fantasy movie, imagine all films were made like that, there would be no need for actors and none of the people would look the same as they do in films nowadays because the creators could create the characters to their imagination.
The main advantage of games is that you can live the thrill alot longer than movies, because the longest i ever know a movie to last is 3 hours but the longest a games ever taken me to complete was around 3 weeks and i put in around one hour a day on that game the game ofcourse was Final Fantasy VII but then i still wanted to play it again. In my opinion i think that most games are better than most movies and obviously movie companies think so aswell otherwise they wouldn't want to turn so many games into movies.
I think that the future of gaming is going to be hot with some titles which are coming out now some great prospects for the Dolphin and the PS2 with the graphics and consoles always improving movies i think will soon be out of the equation and computer games will rule.
This is just my honest opinion if you think different please reply.

Like radio, movies will not die- instead they will be just as popular, but with games becoming bigger and bigger business. The day that you take your girlfriend out to play a computer game will be a sad one indeed!
