Next Generation Video Game

Video game sales have gone down for almost 13% for the past three years. This loses is govern by the fact that people tend to focus more on new invention such as Ipad rather than the application inside the invention. Now, game makers need to invent a new way of playing video games, more advance and complex story line, and goes way beyond the usual video games, which is leveling up and weapon equipped. 

The upcoming game - Bioshock Infinite 

The next generation video game - Star Wars the Old Republic
In recent news (read here), the game makers now will create game that allows the player to create their own story line based on the decision that they've made while playing the game. Unlike conventional story line in which we have to choose the correct decision, this new generation video game will cause the story line to change for every decision that we've made. 

Below is the rough figure of how the new game will come out.

"In the past, games mostly sandwiched so-called theatrical "cut scenes" between bouts of trigger-finger action. In "Grand Theft Auto IV," for instance, players are given missions on a roughly linear progression as other hoodlums call by cellphone and recruit them to participate in crimes that will elevate the player in rank. Players can follow along or ignore the story lines in favor of other pursuits, such as discovering hidden details like the giant, chained heart inside the Statue of Liberty lookalike.

Gradually, non-action scenes are becoming more central to games and the story is the focus. "Grand Theft" was a start in that direction, with two different endings depending on player choices. The new "Star Wars" game will have about 20 different endings and a billion ways to get there."

I think it is nice for video game company to come out with more exciting games, especially the one involving the story line, character leveling and mission to be completed.
