The Ghost of RubangB on 26 June 2008
Oh, and I forgot to say:
The reason film was held back by theater was that they both relied heavily on acting (outside of experimental film), but gaming doesn't rely heavily on anything film has to offer. So while Griffith was held back by his theater roots, I see no reason for people to think cinematic games are the wave of the future. Kojima didn't have roots in cinema and simply chose to make cinematic games. If they end up more cinema than game, that's his own fault and not a result of the young medium growing up and distancing itself from its relatives.
