In the future, video games are going to play themselves. You'll just press start, sit back and watch them go. Every so often, the game will ask you to press the "a" button to continue. Also, movies will actually be able to kill you. I'll still prefer video games to movies.

There could be an upside to that if the games would pay for themselves too..
