It didn't really catch on.<br /><br />I agree with some of the Cracked article and have my skepticism about Kinect, but it's not the end of gaming.<br /><br />Thanks for the excellent comments!Chronic Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11874082907283680556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641782212895550122.post-48229498211886713802010-06-15T11:53:22.547-07:002010-06-15T11:53:22.547-07:00There is a lot of truth in this post!

And yes, the movie and tv industry also keep moving and changing and we keep joining in, trying to keep the good innovations alive and the and ones out (umm, 3D, again? really?).<br /><br />As for that Virtual Boy ... we may have one of those bought off ebay ...<br /><br />RosalindAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641782212895550122.post-1894403152030757642010-06-15T11:29:10.105-07:002010-06-15T11:29:10.105-07:00I like Cracked, but I agree...they kind of missed ...I like Cracked, but I agree...they kind of missed the mark on this. To say movies haven't evolved is to overlook things like the, oh I don't know the addition of sound perhaps? Color? Guns?<br /><br />Sure, controllers haven't changed, but the way we interact with tv has--DVR/hulu/etc.<br /><br />I think they were on target about one thing:<br /><br />"Awesome! Nothing can go wrong with that, as long as you remember to stay perfectly still and silent while your movie is playing. If you're not clear on why random conversation or ambient sound in the room would fuck up your playback, I'm guessing you've never used a voice operated device in your life."<br /><br />I'd like to see how that part plays out...Ruthhttp://beingruth.com/noreply@blogger.com
