gaming has come far sooo much in ten years! imagine what it would be like in another ten years. i reckon we won't be playing the games, we'd be living one like a virtual reality! man that would be fun, you can fire a weapon like a real machine gun at the age of 6! cool im getting me some of those aye!

I thought it was the Aussie thing to do :D

I wonder if playing games such as a future Doom in a virtual reality enviroment will be good for your mental health.

Stratos: Thats exactly what I was thinking, I mean yeah I would definatly enjoy a fully interactive 3d world first person shooter... but could certain people handle it?

Hivetyrant: Well of course I did, but you know kids these days [img]tongue.gif[/img]

In the future we'll all be playing simulations of our lives.

...the only difference being that we'll need a lot more quarters :D

In fact, it'll be even easier than ever not to meet a single person and just sit at home on your tuckus all day long...alone, and overweight....

No thank you! I prefer my interactions to be with other people instead of machines, regardless of how introverted I am!

how would first person shooting effect your mental health?

Same way watching a movie would want to make you burn down your house I suppose! :D

Have you ever played doom 3? Some of the voices and sounds you hear are pretty creepy.
