'The future of gaming is away from the television'

Why?
Sono421  +   355d ago
Or imagine this. In the future all you need to play videogames is a pair of special glasses and a controller. Games are on something that resembles an SD card that get stuck right in the controller, or maybe you can even download them right onto the controller, sounds really cool if you ask me :D were obviously a looooong ways off but hopefully one day :D That would be the definition of portable gaming!

So now they have succeeded conquering the living room (with X Box and PS3...and now they want to leave it?
ApolloAdams  +   355d ago
I would say so to an extent but where that extent leads we may not know. Sure you will have gaming consoles, even though they are more PC/media devices now as well but mobile is thriving due to accessibilty and low cost.

Mobile gaming is alive and well and only will expand to a point where you won't be able to tell if it is a dedicated gaming console or a 10 inch tablet and I look forward to that day.

People may enjoy mobile gaming because it's convenient and something to do to pass the time, but how is gaming on a small screen ever going to match the experience of going home to game on your 50 inch flat screen? It's not. Two completely different experiences and there is a place for both of them. Why this idiot would say otherwise is beyond me. I enjoy getting a bunch of friends together to battle it out in competition. It's much more personal that way. It's much more fun beating the crap out of your friends in your own living room than battling with some anonymous troll online that you don't know.

I'd only enjoy it leaving the living room if the interface is like Ghost in the Shell......

Last gen EA, and other 3rd party devs, were telling us that you MUST own an HD television.
