charliemsays...Eugene Mirmin - Astrological waste of space (in this video...).


The science they spoke of was really only that of psychology / sociology, which lets be honest.....they aint real sciences
I was hoping they would have talked way more about how graphics engines simulate real world phenomena, or how the next big thing bound by processing power currently is A.I in NPC's.
Instead we got mumbo jumbo interspersed with interruptions from a halfwit. Wasted time slot

They're real sciences when they use hard evidence to back themselves up. For good reason the "Soft" sciences haven't had a scientific revolution like physics and chemistry has, and it desperately needs one. It's why people get away with such bullshit in the soft sciences that it's hard to take them at all seriously. But there are people who treat them very much like hard sciences and they're making real developments and progress within them, actually proving and testing theorems rather than throwing stuff and seeing what sticks.

Personally what interests me about the future of videogames is the prospect of more advanced AI. Seems that the goal of games for a while has been life like graphics and proper physics. We're getting pretty close there, but it still leaves us with a rather empty virtual world. I'd be much more interested in creating a virtual ecosystem complete with all forms of life, both simple and complex that are all able be autonomous. The rise of parallel processing/multiple cores might make this sort of thing a reality, as well as more realistic AIs. Hell, maybe the technological singularity will emerge from game development...
