I've been talking about this with friends for a little while now, and decided to start a thread on it after writing my review in the World At War thread. Mind you I haven't read any game info mags in a while, so I don't know anything for sure. My mind was simply pondering the thought.
What I mean by the title is this: The way I see it is Microsoft and Sony will both be forced to pretty much make their next XBOX and Playstations much more player involved next time around. I believe that they will follow suit and produce a gaming experience that one up's the Nintendo Wii (I.E. a more ergonomic controller, etc). Then again, I think the Wii will one up itself with better graphics next time, and a more ergonomic controller as well. Seems they'll also learn better ways to make the player more involved.
Guess what I'm saying is that I can't imagine the Xbox or Playstation coming out with a traditional controller after their current console is obsolete. I think they'll probably have to update the gaming experience to resemble that of a Wii (only better). Graphics, colors, and sounds will only get you so far.
Disclaimer: I'd say around 90% of the games I play are still on the Xbox. But the ones I do enjoy on the Wii bring me hope that it will only get better from here. Thoughts?
