Are the new games remakes of the good old ones, build only to get a high profit on the market? Or are we going into a revolution in gaming industry in the 21st century?

What do u think?

Well it's not that you've done something wrong, just ease up on that "new topic" button... try to post something that you actually believe is worth discussing and not so many threads at once.

As far as the subject at hand goes, I tend to agree. There hasn't been anything "revolutionary" -- but there still has been enough titles to make us all go "wow..." (well, except the ultra-jaded amongst us Razz)

i think the future of gaming will be immersive gaming, or virtual reality. where special suits and vr goggles will give the idea of being in the game. Such systems will eventually evolve into something comparable to the matrix, where the human mind will be tricked into thinking of being somewhere else.

I bloody well hope so!!

A good mate and I once spent an entire fucking DAY trawling different arcades over one of the biggest cities in England ... just looking for one of those VR Pods that were all the rage back then.

We never found one.

Goddamn it, give me VR!

I tried a couple games in my town for the end of 90s. One was similar of the excavator simulator above Very Happy
There are something obscure with that, i remember in the 90s that the fever for VR was huge, few years after nothing was publicited around them... (writing with a cigarrete in the mouth and a poster of Deus ex in front me)

With technology the way it is today, with the sheer size of some MMOs and other persistent worlds .. I honestly can't see why VR isn't becoming more of a possibility, rather than just a pipe-dream. I remember this one episode of "Tomorrow's World" - where they demoed a huge freaking GLOBE that you stand in, walking in order to move the character in-game. They showed off the original PC "Doom" title with it -- and I swear to god, it looked awesome!

The image wrapped around the globe, so the walls of it were actually showing the walls of the game - and when you walked in any direction, the character would move that way. It looked so awesome and I kept thinking "This is going to be the next big thing!" But, alas, I've neither heard nor seen anything since Crying or Very sad

bingo, I miss the days when visuals weren't needed to grasp the attention of the customer, and weren't the devs main concern. They actually needed to come up with something to grab peoples attention like good stories and gameplay

the vg audience is much much much bigger now and with this new retarded generation that puts humanity to shame, you can sell pretty much anything.tell a young man today to play HL1 or quake 1, ok just quake 2 and what's his first reaction? "ewww those graphics are shit"
I mean look at xbox live what was the last time you heard someone whose voice is of an adult? all I can hear is the voices of very young males whose voice didn't crack yet I mistakenly assume they're females ffs /rant

as for companies, well 98% of the reason they make games these days is for profit of course, the other 2% is exploring their capabilities, but it's to be expected, the major audience controls how the final product is, and the bigger the audience the more retards there is so hence the ridiculously easy games we see on the market today with next to no challenge at all...

Pff, and these are examples of good old games how exactly? Razz They are as basic as can be. Slap some UE3 graphics to them today (blooooooom), and they will sell like hot potatoes.

that's the point Razz they're basic and that's all today's generation is capable of but at the time they were quite innovative Very Happy (I was amazed by quake 1 and 2 graphics "OMG3DWTFBBQ!!" Laughing Laughing), but my point was about graphics, I can still play SNES games and enjoy them a lot and I don't understand this bloom or eww bullcrap that's running around these days
matter of fact I find bloom to be quite disgusting in games

actually its naive to say back in the "good old days" devs were not trying to impress customer base with good gfx. its due to the fact we arent used with this old shitty gfx anymore, but big hits back then were top notch in every way (hint: gfx).

to the mainstream graphics has always been the main factor. and i assume its getting harder and harder to make visually nice games that satisfy nowadays standards. this is also why devs - perhaps - cant implement a perfect gameplay or some more intriguing story factors. publishers push them with their timetables.


yes
