Well I guess the title says it all, I was just wondering who ya'll thought were the most active 'forumers' in this part of the AG forum. Opinions, that what this Forum is going to be, pure opinions, and yes you can say 'Me'.

I really have no idea why but upgrades systems in games somehow compel me to waste my life getting every single upgrade. I annoy myself with this habit. Although games with really solid gameplay do sometimes make me okay with a lack of an upgrade system

i think games that are really good have an good upgrade system but it doesnt interfere too much with the normal gameplay... its all about balance i'd say

Farmville's somewhat like a simulation, a farm simulation.

Question I'd liked answered would be what happens to the Ps3 after the Ps4 possibly comes out in 2015?
Will it end up game wize like the Ps2?
No way though it could fail for it has way more than ps2 ever did.

Well, I believe game production for the console will remain until developers entirely switch over to the new console. Should take a while..

And yes, I do expect more of the worked upon games to head to the PS4 after it has been out for a while. Maybe most.

Everything depends. PS3 development could taper off and cease with crappy games, or not. The PS3's superiority over the PS2 is not as much as a factor as the PS4 (new console) superceding the PS3 (old console) is. Development for predecessor consoles is gradually abandoned, as the newer consoles mature.

btw I'm going to gently steer this away from any "console comparison", as there are about 350982409286 threads on that already in the gaming sections.

Yeah.

Last word of mine here, I'd expect a PS4 to come out around that time (2015), as Sony is in no rush to replace the console.

Virtual reality?

I would be taken aback to see that in five years. I usually think 10-20 years.

Since July 1, 2010, 3:34pm, I can't give you the exact second though.

I know that I'm kinda late on this, but what's the X Box 7200 going to be?

I do believe he's referring to the topic about upgrade systems.


I agree with knight, VR in 5 years is definitely pushing it, but with how fast technology advances, I wouldn't be overly surprised to see it. Although I do expect the advent of more thought controlled games, such as the...

About VR*...

You know what I like about video games? The fact that they aren't real, and that I can easily tell that they are not real. That way, I don't have to worry about my own morals or my devotion to pacifism when I slaughter hundreds (okay, thousands) of civilians in GTA. I can make the clear distinction between reality and the world of video games. I can say, "Okay, I would never do this in real life, but this is awesome."

But when you get into mind control and VR, everything changes. Sure, you aren't really killing someone. But you kind of are. I mean, you are killing a thing with what you perceive to be your own hands, using motions that would be lethal in real life. This &quoterson" may not actually be a living organism, but they would appear to be one.

Granted, you could still have the knowledge in the back of your head that you didn't murder a real person. But everything that you see, feel, and hear, would tell you otherwise. And that's a little too freaky.

*I'm talking Matrix level VR, not some corny video visor with motion sensitive gloves. IE everything looks and feels real, and your own movements are translated perfectly into the game.
