As you have noticed, gaming has evolved form day one when it was created. What do you think it will be like in 20 or 30 more years? List your ideas or thoughts of good games. I think that virtual reality games would be the bast possibility. But thats just me. So the games like that could be based on althletic skills, and not button mashing.

An idea for a game that me and my mate here at uni were talking about would be a fighting game... WITH THE HAVOK PHYSICS ENGINE IN IT! (for those who don't know, the Havok physics engine is used in Max Payne 2 and Half Life 2. It simulates proper physics, with objects and stuff being knocked around very realistically. One of the more cooler things about this is ragdoll physics - bodies fly around and prop up against walls properly). Combined with this would be the damage system from Deus Ex, modified so that the availability of certain attacks become dependent on the availability of body parts (ie if hurt hard enough, certain body parts would be disabled. For example, if you broke both arms of the other person, they would then have to rely on their head and legs to get them through). I suppose there could also be a system to somehow heal up certain parts (eg a meter built up through damage and attacking, akin to the super combo meter of most fighting games). Oh, and stick in the fighting environments of Tekken 4, with Virtua Fighter 4's fighting system.

Just my crazy idea.

I Had an idea that in the future, the virtual reality will be more advanced and many people will have their own console fit with gloves ankle bracklets eye wear and such. Then there could be sensors put around a area so u could walk around a town or wat ever the game might be, i think this would be great with like a gladeator kinda game. since u cold sit in stands and watch real people fight it out. and if u got tired u could leave and wonder around town and go to a bar and such, and no one would know it was u since u'd havea virtualy u instead. I think it would be great fun.

tho doubt any of u understood that, since my spelling and grammer skillz are about as wonderfull as 30 day old milk.

i hate to say it but i believe its so true in the future computer programs and games would be just like the matrix not joking, from the way things are going now thats what i see in the future its the ultamate everything. when i was playing halo 2 on xbox live i met up with some friends from out of state and we all got together in a huddle in the video game and talked to each other just like what we do in real life thats when it clicked in my head we really cant send phyisical matter over distances but electronic information we can hello the internet huge possibilites! im in america and some of you are in europe wow and we can talk instantly wow! well if i was in a computer program and was free to do anything at will, i could make any dream of mine come true, i could be a super star, i could really be spider man for a day and fight against venom *talk about a video game* i could make a bowl of cereal as big as earth and the flakes would never get mushy. if i was to live in a computer program world i could change all the stuff i dont like about the real reality and make a personalized one to fit my needs like you would never have to do dishes again, or never have to wash your car because it was dirty, the whole point im making is that if i were pluged into a computer program i could do anything i ever wanted and more and that is the most extreame thing possible ever *sorry for the long post*

your trading your xbox! before you've bought forza motorsport!!! right what should be made is an adventure\rpg based on a huge world like halo but it doesn't have levels and is fully free roaming, with different races and villages to be visited. you could own shops and buissinesses like in fable, or go on epic like quests. now if that doesn't sond ace then your all mad!!!
