So last night I was laying on my bed (no this is not going to get weird), and I just started thinking of the gaming industry of the near future.
I mean you guys know that this industry is not going to go down, but instead it is going to skyrocket up attracting all sorts of new players
So what then? How is this going to happen? What are we going to be playing 5 or 10 years from now?
I would love to see the whole kinect/ ps move I believe its called, expand to us more "hardcore" takers.
I mean if I could play halo or cod without a controller..... Damn I think my social life would end right there.

What about you? What opinions, suggestions, ideas do you have to say on the future of gaming?

Anyways........ I think the future of gaming will involve the use of body reactive sensitivity. Like a vest that when you get shot, you feel it. Or a game with usb that has a USB scent fan, or at least a flip along scratch and sniff book, to release certain smells during the game. Death flavored Lollipops (?) that make you even more aggressive whilst playing CoD.

I'd give it about 40 more years (if that) till we get our own VR rooms where we can completely shut ourselves of from the world.

If you don't want to move around then you don't get to play games. That will just force you to go outside and live your life. Either way, your ass is gonna be moving and living a healthier lifestyle

No, it's not that. It's more of a you know how people can get a seizure from looking at bright flashy lights. That's what I'm talking about what will happen if that happens to someone with the vest O_O

I wasn't talking about the best dude. I'm just talking in general. The best thing is no different than an 4d simulator that are at all the amusement parks all over the world.

Anyways, I think the future of gaming is in mobile devices like Android, if devices with Tegra 3 or similar chips are used for gaming more then consoles will sell less, maybe.

God I hope not, These Smartphones costs are stupid ridiculous. Yes they are fancy and kinda fun to have, but they are such distractions because they are always in your pocket. Everybody has them now and pays tons of money a month to use a service that only truly benefits them a handful of times. Sure maybe in 20 years once the technology in our world has upgraded to be more coalescent and it'll will be more useful.

I honestly prefer the large screen, I don't find the phone games to be that fun because they don't generate as large of a network of gamers that play them competitively. Also you're pretty limited in your controls on a touch screen.

sorry there are just to many down falls to that approach. If the gaming market was dominated by SmartPhone Apps, I would truly be disappointed that the money to develop games was largely being funneled into a novelty area of gaming.

I agree with you No1leftB3HIND, I prefer the large screen too and my PC got much more power and a much better graphik than an iPhone or someting

DrDoodel wrote:But if the iPhone is getting bigger and bigger the iPhone 20 will be like 2 meters and so on, so you can easily play on it but It`ll be cost roundabout 2 Million $
I also got an Android phone and I'm playing on it some time but it's definitly more fun playing on the PC or on some console!
So I hope there will a PS 20 or so in some years and an Xbox 720 or so on
I think I'm searching for a cheap Xbox then

No1leftB3HIND wrote:This is the one industry I wouldn't mind seeing a monopoly on the console end, solely for the purpose of networking gamers. I would hate to get stuck playing all my games on the xbox. PS3s track record outweighs the xbox by a longshot. Recalls, explosions, failures, bans... just all the way around. The only thing that was a slip for PSN, and it was a big one, was getting hacked and having their servers down for a month. Completely infuriating. But not as infuriating as over 1million xbox user's accounts getting permanently banned for things like modding their controllers, or systems, or modifying source code (even when it wasn't malevolent).

SO with that being said, I'd like to have a freedom to choose which system, but I'd like them all to be on the same network. Sounds crazy, but I welcome the competition.
