This supposed to be a joke thread?

No.

In which case, the only way the games industry will properly die (i.e. PC, mobile, tablets consoles, browsers etc.) is if there's an apocalypse, or something nearly as bad like WW3... or a zombie apocalypse.

If that happens, we'll either be too dead to care or have more important things to worry about... like survival.

I would keep doing the same things I do today. Studying, working, fucking, eating and sleeping. The only part I would take out would be the "gaming" part.

Well, you don't have to wait for this industry to die to do so...

What about the suicide pact then..

I voted in the poll for that option to encourage others to do so.
