Too bad I won't be here to see it

The way games are progressing, the next step would be Virtual Reality. I expect that in the somewhat near future, that MMO's will be in Virtual reality. Put on your helmet gloves and away you go. No keyboards or mice. Just suit up and log in and it looks as real as a Holodeck on the Enterprise. You could feel the wind, hits and so on. Not enough to cause serious pain but let ya know you had been hit.

You young bucks will have made then :D

I am just curious as to what Game Company will create it.

Not Funcom or Flagship studios that much I am certain of. :ninja:

[Paganini]

I demand to be put into cryogenic freezing and only thawed when virtual reality DBZ has been made

[Triffe]

Definatly will be cool

[Xtra-Medium]

someone did post about a headpiece you can use to control your character in game, pretty cool shit

[Callaen]

I have the imgination for it, just not the cash :(

[Tyler]

i saw mthis thing where they can just hook your brain up and send electrical impulses to it to create a virtual world inside your head.

that's probably what the wave of the future will be since it has more obvious benefits...


for the New World Order.:ninja:

[heroshade]

Any gunfight would be so much cooler in VR.

[Hitom]

It really aint that long away. Technology just advances faster, and faster, untill it will eventully consume the human race, but thats another story.

Remeber that video that genius japanese kid made, about 3d enviorment movement using head tracking? I bet you sony has it all figured out for the PS4. Sony will win the console wars, just watch, they've been milking for a long, long time, just to finally soon be able to bestow the world with a better "reality".

PS3 Home. Their first step.

But what will happen in about 100 years? Are humans actually Dragonball Z wannabes, training in hyperbolic timechambers with holodecks and VR enemies faster an stronger then we can ever imagine? Fuck that would be awsome.

The world will be wiped clean of life with only a few survivors living underground. Eventually, humans will rebuild themselves through Virtual Reality environments. There would be a time of peace. Peace however, is forever shortlived. War would break out. Thousands would be virtually murdered, causing the life support system in their machines to stop working. Death would be slow, excruciating, and more real than anything they had ever experienced...

Did you have a bad day? :(

If VR costs NWO, then I want some VR.

[heroshade]

No, but I think I have an idea for a new story...

I'm more interested in when we start human/machine interface. Screw this crap where it's external to you, once they do that it can feel more perfect than life in every way.

[Hitom]

I get those alot, to bad I cant write a comphrensive story worth of shit.

[palo god]

virtual reality DBZ would make your brain explode.

[heroshade]

virtual reality DBZ would make your brain explode.

Sitting in a fireball screaming for hours on end would blow your mind out your asshole.

[DocGonzo]

there is no spoon....

[heroshade]

there is no spoon....

What the motherfuck is that from!?

[Hitom]

there is no spoon....

Ofcourse there is, but it's all imaginery, really.

[DocGonzo]

What the motherfuck is that from!?

/sigh

what is, the Matrix....Alex?

[heroshade]

/sigh

what is, the Matrix....Alex?

Oddly enough, I've never seen it.

[Paganini]

virtual reality DBZ would make your brain explode.

Yeah, but it'd be worth it.

And wtf are you serious someone on this forum doesn't know what The Matrix is?

[Tyler]

Oddly enough, I've never seen it.

long story short (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tvs7AAYz0kU)

and it's also one of the more note worthy films of it's era, so you should stop being a douche and see it.

[heroshade]

Yeah, but it'd be worth it.

And wtf are you serious someone on this forum doesn't know what The Matrix is?

I have all three, just never watched them. I get stuck at the part where his mouth disappears...

[DocGonzo]

before you write up the people in pods VR story, you might want to watch them first

i'm just sayin'...

[Paganini]

watch them! stop reading this and watch all three right now!

[heroshade]

i'm just sayin'...

Yeah, I can see people comparing the two alot.... Maybe I'll write a fantasy/modern story about a civil war or some shit. With massive airships and MUSKETs!

[Temet nosce]

At least twice. Seriously. I'm not much of a movie fan, but really the Matrix is a bloody classic (albeit the sequels aren't quite so good).

[DocGonzo]

do it right, set aside the time...get comfortable, and watch all three as one piece, same as you would Godfather 1&2 or the LotR flicks

yer welcome...

EDIT: and a big chunk of the reason many think the others don't hold up is due to the large gap in time between the ground breaking first one (effects wise, as well as story twist)

by the time the next ones came out, the visuals had been used by many copies and lost their initial impact....there is some cheesiness, but as a whole, it stands up decently enough for light movie fair

the Godfather two and three, and LotR sucked imo.

[Temet nosce]

the Godfather two and three, and LotR sucked imo.

I won't argue that in comparison with the books, but in comparison to most of the trash Hollywood pumps out they were good.

[heroshade]

Admitedly, Helms Deep was pretty fuckin' awesome.

[DocGonzo]

i said one and two for a reason.... (2 was awesome, silly)

and i can agree LotR wasn't sliced bread...i had a few issues, but overall and taken as a whole it wasn't bad at all...

but what do i know....i'll sit and watch an entire season of Deadwood all at once

[Rhys]

I don't really want this to happen, I like crackin' the coke and puttin my feet on the desk, gaming at 3am on a Saturday morning with a warm pizza and six empty cans by your side, mic on vent crackin' is the way to go, I don't want this bullshit where I have to actually think hard.

And a nice girl under your desk!

And her Alfar child.

this will be the company.
http://tngames.com/
and they are already halfway there.
also this (http://tngames.com/pages/Products/HTX-Helmet-Coming-Soon). cant wait to see what it feels like to be shot in the head.

they need to make a special chair to go along with that. a chair that throws you out when you are hit by explosions in game.

[APEist]

don't dwell on this

Um....

The HTX Helmet is worn in conjuction with the 3rd Space™ Gaming Vest and delivers blows to the head when you are fired upon.

Feel bullets whizzing by your helmet or the impact of getting shot in the head.

If this was mandatory in CS I think games would be quite a bit more interesting

If anyone creates it, it'd probably be Nintendo.

And the day I run through Hyrule swinging a virtual Master Sword, I will die happy.

[Seddoron]

Yeah, the virtual reality will be the next step in gaming. The final stage in distant future could be a matrix style thing that you plug yourself in the thing and then you step into the game itself. It might be disturbing but at least it means an end to the autoattack craps like WoW and it's clones.

[Eyrothath]

I want to see something similar to the matrix.. :D

[IcePillow]

I'd pay a buck to try that.

[Dragor]

then my dream would come true... but i hope i live long enough for that day :ohno:

more please

[Lethn]

I'm gonna live in the sci-fi age! Neh nyah neh neh nyahhh! :p

[Fruitbasket]

I bet some undercover group in Japan has already done it and din't they try it once before? It was total fail.

Ehm, how old are you? Or are you terminally ill?
