Inafune: “Japanese Game Industry is finished.” (Malstrom)

[Netyaroze]

Of course a lot of new games are just copies from former games with better graphics and some new features. The older games were innovative they were completly new. There is a lot to invent with new technologies. But right now they just offer better graphics and starting with this generation a new type of Controls. But even this Concept is not new. I love a lot of old games and they are still some of the best games i ever played. And the Human Brain connect former Stuff with the feelings we had in this time the brain is selective and remembers longterm just the good feelings (except something really horrible happened) and connects it with the stuff from the time music games people countries which we saw things which we did its easier to store stuff in that way. this is called nostalgia. We like mostly what we experienced in the past.

And I bet even now that I had a better feeling playing Super Mario World than I have now if i am playing Fallout 3 or something. And still have my Games Collection and enjoy them from time to time. But honestly I wouldnt change the Librarys from now vs 18 years ago library. In 20 years i will think back and remember how good the games where 20 years ago but the games i played in my childhood or teenager years will always be the best.

The MMO Gaming has a giant potential which will create completly new types of gaming combined with new technologies. The gaming industry is not that bad. Of course there is a lot of commercialism and they are milking concepts until they destroy them but for example Nintendo they started something new now everyone follows this concept and they saw ok the customers accepted it so how can we milk that and they try a lot of new stuff with it. Sony and MS will do the same but they will change it a little and do it their way. The Wii was a Revolution now starts the evolution for the next gen atleast and then somebody will come up with something new. There will be a day where FPS are a old concept and nobody will play them. Who knows what kind of games will entertain us in 50 years.

I have to admit this gen entertains me way more than the last. If I see it as a whole. The last gen was just a spin off from the gen before that with better graphics. This gen the Online gaming came in plus the Motion Controls and i have the feeling there is more to come. This gen is exiting if I compare it to the last one but i guess some other folks which grow up with the last gen will consider that one as the best. Thats the circle of life the same reason why the old people always think that the youth from today is lazy and a bunch of disrespectful criminals that said the teachers 2000 years ago in the old rome that said the old ones to our grandparents and we will say the same to our grandchilds.

The Industry of gaming was always doomed the whole world is always doomed in every generation people thought that its the last generation and they will be doomed.

The gaming Industry is not doomed infact its at the peak right now and it was at the peak a generation before that and before that. And the next generation will be even bigger. PC Gaming has seen a decline. The first reason is that you had to move on with your hardware. I remember a time where i spend 500 Dollars to update my PC for one Game. So i could play just one stupid game. Thats a big reason why a lot of people moved to Consoles. Maybe consoles will die in the future but gaming will have a long life.
