Agreed, but gaming is different in that it's also the only constantly evolving medium in terms of how one interacts with it. Regardless of the technology behind a movie, watching it is the same no matter what.
Gaming presents an interesting problem. I agree that it's not necessarily a good thing, but I think it might be necessary.
Unless it isn't. Is there a possible model where it wouldn't be?
