The Dreamcast is more original to the PS2, with Crazy Taxi and more. But the PS2 does have its new games, Time Splitters. But it needs more which are different. A new experience. Animal Forest is a good example. (You have a year to do what you want). But it seems it will go on like this. And more and more sequels will come out. WE NEED ORNIANALITY! If we don't the gaming industry will die. People will get board and what a new world that will be. What will be after? What will happen to our boarded Saturday nights? The future, the future has yet to be decided.
At the moment developers seem to bringing more realism into games (MGS2, Red Faction etc) This can only go so far. As soon as games start becoming more about realism and less about playability the sooner we'll all get bored.
It's similar to what's been happening in the film industry. Films are all about special effects. At first it was "Wow the affects are amazing, the films amazing" then before long it was "Great another film about special effects.DULL"
After this SOME people started trying to bring story lines and originality back into films.
And so it will go with games. I hope.
Let the developers use the technology to Wow us with realism then demand some originality. After all there trying to make money and the only way they can do that is by catering to our needs!

Would correct you a bit....ORNIANALITY is ORIGINALITY and what the hell is furture? Don't rush these things.
