The graphics are always better, the interactivity is always better, the stories are always better, and the gimmicks are always better.
For example, I'm still waiting for a copy of Brainscan to appear on store shelves. And why couldn't the Power Glove be as awesome as the movies made it seem? Why didn't we ever get a playable version of Sugar Rush? WHY?
But these days, it's about augmented reality and virtual reality, seeing just how close we can get to actually experiencing the game. I just reviewed Ready Player One in my last post, which involves a virtual reality gaming experience that the entire world embraces, now we're looking at a another hugely popular video game world that comes with a twist.
Namely, a Japanese anime that addresses the idea that someone rigs up a whole bunch of virtual reality consoles so that if you die in the game, you die in real life.
