The Question 2: What if video games didn't exist?
The Question 3: If you could do one thing in the world?
The Question 4: What is your favourite MMORPG and why?
The Question 5: Have you thought about going into space?
The Question 6: How do you like Starcraft post-released?

Tbh I think this gen is fine. Video games have pretty much caught up with the quality of television, so I don't see how they can get any better. Unless...

I'm not only talking about how they can get better but also how the industry itself can improve if that makes sense.

I think video games are going to become more stylistic. I.e. addition of video affects, cut scenes that go beyond what we see today and et cetera. But who can really know?

- id like to see the mmo reinvented. most mmo's are all around pretty similar gameplay-wise. level up, get better gear etc. there must be a way to expand upon that relatively simple concept. 
- i think in the console market developers and publishers will continue to try a 'snatch n grab' for cash from you at every turn (not unlike dlc, which instead of being added content, really is content they just leave out and make you pay more for later in most cases)

3D is stupid an pointless. We still haven't even gotten to complete photorealism in games or cg films. If your question is after that, where will they go, I will answer this question. Honestly, I think the next step in visual entertainment, whether it be video games movies or TV, should be concave viewing devices. Devices that curve at the edges to sorta give you a bigger look into the world you are seeing. This is such a cliche example, but if you imagine your screen as a hole looking into another world, why not make that hole curved like your eyes. Imagine playing a game and being able to see whats happening on the periphery of your character. I think this would be a pretty good way to go instead of this stupid 3D shit. But if 3D is really what you want, then you also want these curved screens. I think the key is not to make the the picture pop out but to make the picture sink in, and I feel like a curved screen could benefit this greatly. 
 
This is just my opinion though. Someone tell me why I am wrong lol :P

Mandatory mouse and keyboard support on every platform and the abandonment of all this DLC and pre-order exclusives crap. That's all I want.

Sounds good but I think consoles need a good mouse and keyboard.

Kinect and Playstation Move will fail and we'll wait a few years for the new console generation.

Why not play a PC then? Consoles are all about pick up and play for the average Joe. They dont want any of this keyboard crap. (coming from a PC and Hardcore console gamer)

Interesting/creative games hopefully, rather than flogging dead franchises and general me-too-ism by developers.

Actually I started before him and my questions are weekly so he basically does the  same thing even though they are called "Question of the Day" for some reason.

Hmm I guess that makes sense, just be a bit more specific.
