"Future of Gaming is....."

Bright. Next gen consoles coming out in a year or so, gamers going potty discussing the pros and cons of techie stuff that half of them don't understand and the other half couldn't care less about, games being produced that are not just new graphically, but new in terms of GAMEPLAY, and a whole new breed of gamers getting ready to play them.

Bad time for Sega to bow out of the console market, but a great opportunity for software developers to make a fast buck with new games for new consoles, and a great time to see which console manufacturer will get it's foot in the door of the gaming public first.

I can see Bill Gates counting the money now. I can see Nintendo winding up for quite possibly one of the most spectacular advertising campaigns in recent years, and I can see Sony frantically trying to make sure that the PS3 is ready (and working) sooner than even they can have hoped for.

If they all remember that they are only there because we are here, and that gamers pay their wages, then we've got a very sunny few years ahead of us. :-D

Dan_UK hopefully i will be doing character and landscape design for RARE so you'll never know we couldf end up working on the same game someday

You'll be especially happy with the games I make at Rare, That's a future of gaming that you can all look forward to.

Yep.

here here.

To be honest i will be happy with the future of gaming if a game gets released when it should, in a playable state!

Heh, they will by the time I've finished my mass email program.

Heh.

To be honest, i doubt the mass market (who will decide th outcome of the console "war") will know anything about Microsofts doctored pictures.

People go on about how 'The Future of Gaming' is a boring and over-extended topic. But how can it be, there are loads of different opinions in the forums and things are happening al the time. The sheer success of the GBA launch will no doubt have a big effect on peoples thought on Nintendo and how well they will do.

Microsofts 'Doctored' pictures will no doubt smoulder their already shady reputation amongst developers and consumers alike. The 'Future of Gaming' is never the same at one time. Some where in the world deals are being signed and games are being developed!

The future looks exciting but I can almost guarantee that all of us will be looking at The Future of Gaming in a different light in months and even weeks to come! The future is bright, it might be Purple, it might be Black, or even Green, we will soon enough find out, but as for now...keep discussing!

Except for the Russians. They just play Command and Conquer all the time. They have no concept of 'Theme Park' because they have trouble paying the workers...

You buy a console play on it.......the next latest console comes out and you buy that!
The daily life of us gamers! Sad name........i know but we are gamers alike around the world.
