visuals is not hollywoodization,its about how the the glamorous and COOL and hyped up games become like putting 50 cent in MW2
again interactive movie and cutscenes is not the topic
i said 720 will continue cause XBOX brand in what brought the whole western culture
the japanese and the core culture bit of diminished this gen as 360 launched earlier and brought out certain types of games and then it became the choice of the industry
720 will continue to promote western culture
PS4 and wii2(if they participate in third party like other) will bring back the core and the glamour will come down a bit
yes PS3 also became a bit hollywood with all the multiplat but that is only because when a type of games are introduced early in that gen,then that becomes the choice and trend of that gen.so PS3 followed the established trend and choice
now the question is that if PS3 was successful,will we have this hollywoodization.PS3 would have set a different trend like in PS2 days |
First of all, OP never described what he means by "Holywodization". How do you know your itnerpratation is correct?
Secondly, the "holywoodization" you describe is a far smaller problem than games becoming like interactive movies IMO.
I want to play my games not watch them. I really don't care that 50 cent or PAtrick Stewart appear in games if they are good playing games. However if they are linear and boring to play only so they could be visually structured like a movie (God of war, Lords of Shadow, Heavy Rain, COD, Medal of Honor...to name a few)...I don't think thats a fair trade off at all.
If taht is the future of videogames, I look forward to spending 95% of my time on xbox live and playing casual games...
