Open Discussion #3: The Future of Gaming

So, we all know that one day, gaming through consoles is going to end. But just that thought is weird, the gaming experience is so much better on a console like a Wii or XBox, eventually, it will all be on tablets and stuff like an iPad or iPhone. Gaming is just one part of it.

"My experience with technology has shown me that in the long run, expensive hardware based technology is always made obsolete by software. As an example, a home computer with video editing software can now do what hundreds of thousands of dollars of video equipment could do ten years ago."

Inexpensive multi-task hardware like some phones, tablets, and good laptops are replacing so much technology that isn't ten years old. The iPhone 5, for example, can replace a Global Positioning System, or G.P.S., MP3 player, microphone, digital camera, and much more.

Back to gaming, the biggest theory right now is that soon, all gaming will be done on portable devices. If your a gamer, like me, you might be disappointed. Like I said, the gaming experience is always better on a console. Another thing is how much creativity gets put in to these consoles. Take the Nintendo Wii for example. There are so many things that make the Wii different from other console like an XBox or PlayStation. First of all, the controllers are so different. You can create your own avatar to play in all kinds of games. Overall, the gaming experience is better on a console as of right now. Time will tell
