Some sort of virtual reality - absolutely (for some types of games). Ever since I first tested the Wii (and again when I saw the Sony Wand demo at E3 where he simply couldn't hit the ball with the tennis racket) I have waited for that. I think motion sensing without virtual reality is in many cases pointless - you need to be able to actually hit the (virtual) ball directly - not control something on a screen a few feet away that is hitting the ball.

I'm mainly a PC gamer - not because I like tinkering with PC hardware but because I prefer the types of games and control mechanisms (Mouse & KB) normally associated with PC:s. I do like the idea of console hardware though, i.e. having a level playing field + knowing that I will be able to run games at the optimal resolution etc for years to come. I expect/hope to see a solution that allows for PC-like gaming on console hardware.

I would like to see the consoles become more like a server I can hide somewhere and then, depending on the type of gaming I want to do at the moment - e.g. playing Battlefield 3 alone (but online), NHL2011 with a bunch of friends in my living room etc- I simply use a suitable client/control mechanism. That could be monitor/mouse/keyboard for traditional PC gaming, TV/gamepad for console-type gaming or maybe even a mobile device of some kind (like an iPhone) that I would use to connect to my server at home. I would expect the games for the platform to be designed with this in mind from the start, i.e. the games should still be designed with a specific control scheme (e.g. mouse/keyboard for FPS:s) in mind so they don't try to allow for multiple control schemes in the same game, or at least have ways to keep players using different schemes separate.

I would say that Desert Combat is still where it's at 8) After I tested the BF1942 mod Desert Combat, I was never able to go back to the vanilla version (nor to games like Counter-Strike) - best mod ever. Unlike BF2, there is no commander => you can actually flank without being spotted and also not get blown to pieces by point-and-click-artillery. Additionally, it has (IMHO) the best vehicles in any game (the helos are fantastic to fly) but also great balance between vehicles and infantry (unlike BF2).

For a game with a singleplayer campaign, my vote goes to Call of Duty 1 and United Offensive though.

OPF kept crasching so badly on my machine that the installation became corrupted. The fact that I finished the game after tens of such crasches is testament to how great the game was when it actually worked.

OR is it because PC games have so much replayability with the mods that noone feels the need to buy a new game. Or maybe it's because the fanbase is spread out over so many more excellent games umlike the consoles where there is only one definitive game.zayl99
