GS: Looking forward, do you think this next generation of consoles are going to be revolutionary or evolutionary?
HK: Well, maybe a revolution will not occur. The biggest shock these days, well back in the past, was going from 2D to 3D because of the hardware. So, PS2, Xbox came, and then there was a breakthrough about network, or everyone connecting. And then right now there's nothing new planned. I mean, there's not going to be any new smell or anything.
I still think, even so, the hardware doesn't provide us at this stage a new revolutionary idea. I still think that game design, by game design, we can make a revolution here.
Well, example is a PC Half-Life 2. The hardware didn't make a revolution itself; the software did, because Half-Life 2 introduced us with the physics of explosion or the people trembling, or they put in the physics calculation there for the first time in the game, meaning they upgraded or hired the boss, so to say. It was a revolutionary thing, idea. I think from this example we game designers could do a similar thing, not dependent on the hardware specs to make the revolution, but the game design idea could make a revolution.
I think, well I personally say the theme of the next platform in terms of creating games is not real, but go to natural in terms of...not upgrading the graphics to make it look superreal, but more...maybe natural movement or natural things there. Digital to analog. Everything was digital in the past up until today, but maybe this analog aspect should be more recognized, much more. Also as I explained earlier, not the set, not the fake thing anymore, the real world. If we think in that way, I think we could see the next step in games.
But of course I am thankful for the new technology, the CPU, the RAM, the vast power that the new hardware provides, because I cannot do what I just said, create the set to the real thing. So in that sense, yes I am thankful for the next-gen hardware.
But because of this hardware, and everyone does the same way, creates the same way, upgrades the same way, it will not cause any revolution from the hardware.
We're not in an era where we just create 2D to 3D and it's an automatic hit. That's not the era we're in today. We have to really concentrate, or to let the users decide who will be the winner, and we have to decide what we create.
So I think overall the person who gives thought about the most, or has great ideas the most, will be the winner in the next-gen war.

games will get more bloated
more stupid cinema sequences, more useless cut ins, fancier shading, less interesting storylines, more stupid love interest crap, more redundant buttons and godawful combos, the race for the bottom will continue, just like hollywood

Wipeout, you might want to give this a close look.
Obsessive
Definition: Descriptive of a persistent thought, image, or impulse.
Detrimental, as in the sense of an obsessive disorder or OCD (Obsessive-compulsive disorder).
Obsessive-compulsive disorder
Definition: (OCD) is an anxiety disorder. OCD is manifested in a variety of forms, but is most commonly characterized by a subject's obsessive drive to perform a particular task or set of tasks, compulsions commonly termed rituals.
An example would be something like the constant fixation on a certain object, f.e. "VIDEO GAMES".
Seek help and soon.

He's no yapping anything.
What he failed to mention is what he posted is a interview with Hideo Kojima - The man behind the metal gear solid series and the superb sega cd game Snatcher.

wipeout never gives credit to the original thread authors that he steals from.
he probably plagiarized his way through high school...that's assuming he really finished school.
there is probably enough left over medications in your parents medicine cabinet to do the job. come on and make krell's day. perhaps if you swallowed your entire bottle of riddlin?

Hey im open to suggestions, I just chose suicide as its permanent solution and\or he may stop posting for a while
I'm still open to homicide, or any number of other creative alternatives on HIS part so we can get a break already
Did I mention electrocution?

You are the one spamming in my thread.
As you've been posting more than me today.
You have some real nerve to talk about someone posting a lot Wipeout. You have been here for less then three weeks and average 15 post a day.
Is it wrong to post lots of useful posts? Please Give Me Some Peace and stop asking me to suicide. EDIT: That was referring to krell's constant suicide messages.

I have never counseled you to suicide as an option. Nor have I told you you were stupid or dumb.
The key word you posted was "useful". That would also mean short concise and to the point with your post. When using someone else material give credit to the source.

The math really reaches insanity when you factor in his 27 other aliases. CJ can't even compete with that, and her posts make people laugh rather than cringe and wish to commit murder. :icon_scra

You guys need to get this on topic. If Wipeout bothers you so much, don't friggin post. If he accrues enough threads with only his initial post, maybe he'll get the message that you all are railroading into his head.
FYI...baylorchamber is not Wipeout. Also, wipeout's other accounts have been banned. I don't know why I even explain this when it will just promote off-topic discussion.
My poll option is "I have no idea."

To post on the topic of the thread, the next gen is only evolutionary. There isn't much left to be revolutionary. They will just be the next three to five years of console hardware.
the great one
May 29th, 2005, 02:58 AM
Since they're not out yet it's hard to tell,but from what I've seen they won't be revolutionary.

The next generation consoles are not an evolution. They are just more powerful versions of their predecessors. If you want to impress me, release an affordable virtual reality/holographic gaming system. Now thats evolution.
