My favorite system is the 360 and I don't own any FPS games. I admit I hope to see more genres of games on the system, especially if there are exclusive...
*coughcough* Star Ocean 4 is going to be awesome xD
| mrstickball said: I guess the real question is: What is next-gen? What makes a game revoutionary? I think that some of the things in Left 4 Dead (AI director), Fallout 3 (VATS), Tales of Vesperia (cell-shading) and other games seem pretty good. And we're only half way through this gen, so there's still plenty of time to find out what's still possible on the 360 and PS3, in terms of what you can do from a performance standpoint. |
A lot of that stuff has been done before -- the AI director, the Cell shading (hell, Cell Shading was made popular on the gamecube by Nintendo with Zelda, and it was continued a lot on the DS).
This generation, as defined by Microsoft and Sony, was to take the same stuff we've been doing and make it high definition resolution. Of course, they both failed in their goals as many of the games on both platforms aren't HD (Halo 3, CoD 4, etc etc etc) and on the PS3 a lot of stuff in particular has really bad framerates (Killzone 2, reportedly, as well as GTA 4, Madden 08, etc).
Maybe next generation will be the generation that HD can be done properly.
What the Xbox 360 has done is that it has taken experiences from the PC and brought adaptations of them to the console. 16/32/64 player online shooter matches were on PCs in 1996 and were finally brought to the Xbox 360 (although a lite version, really).
What we need next is proper modifications to game engines being brought to the Xbox 360. Great stuff like Team Fortress and Counter-Strike came to PCs in the 1990s because of mod authors.
