[...] this of people, but at the same time, I know I have many readers who care about the same kind of grandiose ideals for the future of video games as I do, so I figured that maybe in some small way, we could all take [...]

I couldn’t agree more. I think we need to make a sign out of that first paragraph and then set up shop directly across from EA’s headquarters. So let’s do it (the making good games thing, not the EA thumb-biting), how can I help?

I may not be able to help make them, but I promise to write about them and teach them to my students. If we all do what we can, it will happen.

Lovely post and lovely ideas. Thank you.

You know I’m with you on all this.

..except one thing. If some fanatic wants to play a game I make for every waking minute, I think I’m okay with that.

Sure… but bear in mind that those things will only be impressive for about three months.

I’m with you. That’s the way to make games.

But can’t we make games that do all that and still impress through their next-gen graphics, their sophisticated AI, and their innovative mechanics?

I am not in the art myself. I’ve played through my share of games, though. There were only a few, which match your description (more or less).

I share the same feeling that there is much uncovered potential in the medium. I am not sure I am up to making games. So, I’d rather assume the role of excited spectator.

Keep trying.

P.S. Thanks for “Pigeons”. I enjoyed that one a lot.

Shows you how shallow I am. I really just want to write for a big budget triple-A FPS that doesn’t take it self too seriously. One day…
