A satirical but insightful look at an upcoming video game "crash".

The author of this piece of humor hints at an upcoming crash of the video game industry. Citing such points as the "original gamers" are growing beyond the age of the intended audience, and that the technology has plateaued to the point where games just are not getting any better. He also notes the videogame industry's attempts at cinematic gaming, but failing miserably when at the climax of the movie like storyline, the mood is killed when the player must redo and retry the final boss/level countless times.

An interesting and funny article.

gamers of today range from 3-50, sometimes more. Kids are a key factor to keeping the industry alive i believe, they'll buy any game with a familiar character and they'll play anything. Video games crashing? yah right O.o i dont think i'll be seeing a child pick up a hoola-hoop over a console controller anytime soon. ninja2.gif
