I think video games could get better, but I don't really see the need. With the 16 bit gen, obviously we needed 3d textures, with the ps1/n64 gen the graphics were muddy and blocky (generally), but with the GC/XBox/PS2 gen I think it got to the point i didn't think we needed much more. I think the next gen might be a ceiling in terms of graphical advancements, audio has been fine since the introduction of 5.1, and AI is one of those things 75% of people don't notice and don't care about, so it is gonna be on the developers to continue giving us fresh ideas.
I guess I'm behind the times on this one, but I don't notice or care about the quality increase from Dvd to HDDVD/Bluray, and I'm afraid soon enough the advancements in game systems is gonna be roughly the same. Either that, or we'll be spending 900 dollars on a system, bleh.
