The games are only going to get better from here. Now, I must admit, the game's popularity at the part is due in large effect to the entertainment system it was running on, and I'm not talking just about the console itself. The game was being displayed on a monstrous VEGA television from Sony , the audio came from some very nice Polk surround speakers, with a nondescript looking Cerwin Vega sub acting as the sugar on top of the whole package. Very loud sugar, that is. I think that the increasing number of home-entertainment systems like this around the country is actually going to add to the spreading popularity of video games.
Video games do just that.
And, you're guaranteed to get more play-time out of a game than a movie. In a couple of years people won't bother tuning in for sitcoms or docu-dramas, but will instead sit down and watch the progress through the voluminous storyline of a game like Shenmue . It won't be a fight over who gets to hold the remote anymore, but over who gets to hold the controller. All Rights Reserved.
