The Lost Gamer writes "Peter Molyneux has discussed the future of the gaming industry, during which he reveals that he believes that the next few years will bring new titles that will change our whole perception of what a game is, as the name no longer depicts what developers are currently aiming to achieve any more."
Father of Cinematic Video Games.
you forgot to add /s
Heck, its 2 years later and it still beats the latest games.
Even its legacy receives praise (UC2, AoT)
wow that much sarcasm in one comment.. I think i'm overloaded..
I love Gears, but emotion has never been a factor in it.. oh please..
The only company that still makes games is nintendo. When toys stores no longer carry game console it will be a sad day for gaming and a joyous day for interactive movies.
:D
the word "child molester" must be reaaaally familiar
He's even making a game about it lol
Poor xbots
nice one Mr. President
I can sumarize the spirit of the people when I grant Bubbles to you
Video games are becoming much more than just games. They are interactive experiences. I'm sure if anyone can come up with a new catchy title for video games, Molyneux can do it. I'm interested to see if the industry will pick up on this idea.
like T&A holograms?
T&A FTW
He's talking about games IN GENERAL....NOT just Lionhead/MGS games.
That being said, I do kind of think we should stop calling them videogames. The word 'game' really is not the best term in this day and age, after the medium has come so far and evolved so much in the past few decades.
he and patcher should be banned from being interviewed until they have something important to say.
Not a day has gone by on N4G without reading his name somewhere.
game is the definition of a situation when you are encountered with numerous decisions, and need to choose, and thus suffer consequences of your actions (in a controlled environment)
it may be trivial, and "experience" could be better for some games, but its still a correct word to used
this guy is just such a romanticist it makes me sick sometimes -_-
I couldn't roll my eyes harder if I tried.
They are videoGAMES. You PLAY them. Being able to dictate action onscreen is what makes a game INTERACTIVE. You don't interact with movies, you watch them. That's the point; there is SUPPOSED to be a difference.
And c'mon, "meeting" a programmed onscreen character? Sorry, that's not revolutionary. It's just another NPC with more sophisticated programming for AI.
When games are no longer games, and are just cut scenes broken up by QTE, I'll stop buying them. The trite and pretentious b.s. of some in the gaming industry is ridiculous. If they want to be movie directors, go direct movies.
I don't listen to anything he says.
His games are pretentious and ultimately rubbish.
