Who Was There: On the third and final day of the 2009 Penny Arcade Expo, Andrew Mayer delivered a talk titled "The Future of Gaming: You Don't Know What You're Going to Get." A game-industry vet in the more casual and social-gaming spaces, Mayer currently serves as a user experience consultant for MediaShifter.
What He Talked About: Mayer's forward-looking session began with a look at the past and present, namely as it pertained to hardware. According to Mayer, hardware has traditionally driven innovation and evolution in the game industry, but it's reached a point where technical capabilities are no longer driving the market.

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
This is probably the stupidest idea ever.
I think he has something there.
On COD 4 you though in a farm
In Resistance 2 there was bits in the barn
In Uncharted 2 there was scenes in jungle farm
In Halo 3 there's probably a covenenant farm.
See everything is connected, a good game has a link to farming.
While these may appeal to Facebook users I highly doubt they will ever make it into mainstream gaming. The only farming sim I can think of is Harvest Moon and I don't recall that getting too big.
Harvest Moon may not be massive but it's pretty well known, and definitely has more than a few sales. It has a lot of games.
Farming Sims won't be the future of games, though with the casual market no doubt increasing, game like Harvest Moon could sell more. I like Harvest Moon myself, it is nice and relaxing, though certainly wouldn't buy every game in the series.
To some extent Harvest Moon has hit the mainstream, in a similar way that Animal Crossing has. A casual game that has quite a following, even with some hardcore gamers.
building farms in age of empires in about as far as i care to go
