Quote
343: Bringing your game everywhere with you/always being connected to your game wherever you are.
Rare: Getting new people into the industry, as comfortable with games as they are with books/movies, and making it as easy to play as possible/really really simple to play.
Naughty Dog: Super realistic graphics/fantastical universes that feel believable/grounded due to the quality of visuals and animation, like Hollywood has done recently.
Frontier: Innovation. He wants both new performance (as in better hardware) and new interfaces (he likes touch a lot), as he believes both can drive new experiences on their own, or can combine to make other new innovations as well.
Ninja Theory: More interested in new pricepoints/downloads than performance. Wants this so they can release more experimental games.
Sony Studios: Really excited about higher quality graphics. Really wants more cinematic experiences. He lists Uncharted, God of War, and Heavy Rain as his examples of the future.
BioWare: Connectivity and download capacity. Really loves digital downloads.
Blizzard: Efficiency of content creation.
EA Canada (FIFA Team): Wants a guaranteed hard drive to improve load times. Feels the new battleground is AI and physics over graphics, and he feels they will have dramatic improvements.
Sony Liverpool: Connectivity. The future is about how developers will link games to your friends and enable you to share your experiences. He feels this will be one of the biggest changes from a gameplay perspective.
Blizzard Again: Easier tools for user generated content/developers not as experienced with tools.
Gearbox: More RAM. Lots and lots of RAM.

Not to defend them but content creation is the main reason for overblown budgets.Everybody now expects high quality assets,high quality voice acting,motion capture and that shit is not cheap.

I was actually thinking about this yesterday on the toilet. About the early days of 3D when a plane flying over a race track was something amazing, and now it's not even an asset you would notice.

I think Blizz of course is right for saying this, but it doesn't sound exciting for me as a consumer somehow.

Thinking about it, it should actually free up time for more innovation since all the other shit is taken care of.

Question is, will Blizzard use that time or just churn out more WoW, Diablo3, SC2, Titan stuff faster?

I wish next gen developers would focus on making good video games instead of D-grade movies with shallow, run of the mill gameplay.

You can take the Rare out of the Nintendo, but you can't take the Nintendo out of the Rare.

The same thing I want every gen.

Better graphics. Better framerate, more online connectivity, and a new controller with new input solutions.

Pretty simple.

I like the Ninja Theory answer. Lower price point and lower cost can allow more room for risk takers.

A console with minimal waggle, gesticulation, or other useless gimmickry.

I'll accept that I may have to accept some but as long as it isn't awkwardly shoehorned into games I want to play, that is all that I ask.

I have low expectations because this generation had a shitload of issues.  Rising costs of hardware and software development mean fewer risks, meaning probably more bullshit.

Everything sounded like a huge snooze-fest, but I liked Ninja Theory's answer too.

Unless by "experimental games", they mean "waggle shit".

Shorter dev cycles and an emphasis on making things easy for devs, i.e. Sony, MS, Nintendo sticking with the PPC core architectures and upgrading components. A continued emphasis from Sony on PS3(4)/Vita integration. Consoles to start out slim and quiet, and then get even slimmer and quieter not the fucking jet engines this gen started out with. Emphasis on the quiet, seriously hate how loud consoles are. 360 is good with game installs now, though if MS go BD next gen they'll need decent drives that aren't loud as fuck or imma be pissed. More modern, competitive multifunction operating systems if 360 has Metro UI stuff and a great media player with better codec support a browser that maintains parity with the functionality of IE on PC and media server features count me in, same goes for PS4. Control systems to be determined at launch and bundled with every system, no new systems half way through. Keep it simple and locked down. App store for stuff that isn't just games so I can actually use my console as a media center and use apps like Boxee etc on my console without hacking it.

Basically improve on what they've been doing already. This gen was/is fuckin great

I want the awesome games to start ocming out at the start of the generation.  It seems like the best "games" are coming otu now and it is way too late. :/
Title: Re: What do you want from the next gen?(devs talk)
Post by: Cerveza mas fina on September 06, 2011, 03:02:50 AM
I don't care about quiet, as long as the console doesn't fry itself every two weeks like the 360. What a clusterfuck that was.
Title: Re: What do you want from the next gen?(devs talk)
Post by: naff on September 06, 2011, 06:48:07 AM
Yeah I missed out on that with 360, didn't get mine till late 2009, though my launch PS3 did fry itself but Sony fixed it free of charge and kept my BC and it's been good ever since.

Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts was a fabulous game. Very original and technically adept. Viva Piņata was inspired, addictive, and original. Too bad its alcohol-themed sequel, Viva Piņa Colada, was blocked by the ESRB as "inappropriate to the E-for-Everyone rating." Prudes.

Anyway, why do you hate freedom?

Viva Pinata didn't click with me at all, but Nuts and Bolts was indeed great.
