| liquidninja said: @Deneidez Yeah, I think that's why I like him too. @yushire No, "User Generated Content" is about you making the content. The kind of content you're talking about though (Half-life mods) Isn't really the same. People are buying Half-life not the "Half-life: DIY Game Creator". Nobody wants to pay for a game that's just a shell for other people creations to be put in. People would much rather pay for those creations instead. (If they are original & good, which is rarely the case with UGC) |
thats when mods started anyway, the people who makes multiplayer maps and skins and send it online or in floppy disks. (and yeah, CS till 1.6 maps can fit into a 1.3 mb floppy disc)
even in the NEs days Nintendo are pursuing online(YES. They're that ahead of the time of course its just a plan a prediction) and UGC and share their UGC online making battle city, wrecking crew and excite truck maps. But because of the technology at that time they cant do it. but with the technology we have today they can do it
end of core gaming days prediction:
E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced
E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
E3 2010- Tape runs out
