Its currently raited as 99.4% at gamerankings and may be credited as being the best game of all time. It has almost limitless replay value. The principles behind the gameplay are ingenious, imagine a game that simulates some of the best times in your life. Remember going to the Amusement Park and waiting in a 2 hour long line to ride an awesome rollercoaster?Do you remember how much more fun it was to stand in the line than actually ride the rollercoaster? Anticipating how awesome it will be once you finally geton the ride?
How about when you go out to dinner and order your favorite entrea, your starving for your food but its taking longer than expected, your food keeps getting delayed, must be lazy cooks. But thats the fun part, waiting for your food and actually thinking, and talking about how good it will be is far far better than actually eating it.
So what is this ingenious game thats pushing the gaming industry forwardand can basically simulate these real life experiences? Its called THE WAITING GAME and it is only available for the Playstation3. Reviewers along withgamers talk in Unison when they say this may be the best game ever created. The gameplay is top notch and it has a learning curve of zero (thats right 0, anyone can pick up this game and feel like a pro). It is rumored that the game will take until halfway through 2008 tofinish.
You may be thinking to yourself how can it get any better?, this game sounds awesome. But guess what, it also happens to be the best deal in video game history. Sony is including this game for FREE with every PS3 console sold. Thats right FREE! Why would Sony do this knowing they could make millions selling this game at full price? WellBob from 4Dgraphics.com sat down with Phil Harrison to ask him some Questions about it.
BoB: Thank You for havng a chat with us Phil Harrison
Phil: its my pleasure
Bob: So gamers have been anticipating the PS3 ever since the start of the next gen gaming experience which was the launch of the xbox 360.
Phil: Well, yes we knew that our fans could have been playing next gen games a year before we released our console but luckily we convinced most of them to wait for the PS3 because it is the only console that can produce 4D graphics, and we promised games such as Resistance and gundam that would obliterate the 360's lineup.
Bob: It seems you weren't successfull at getting people to be early adopters of your console without any good games and a high price tag. Is that when you decided to reveal your biggest game of 2007?
Phil: yes we decided to make the announcement of the inclusion of the Highly anticipated The Waiting Game for free with every PS3 sold.
Bob: So who actually originally came up with the idea of this game? it is such an ingenious concept that its suprising that no other developers came up with it before.
Phil: It was our market research team that came up with the originalconcept. And then we realized we had all the necessary resources to make this a reality. loyal fanboy fans, No good games, and the continued delay of good games in the future. The most important part of making The Waiting Game is to keep giving hope to our customers that they will eventually have a good game to play. So basically the concept is that waiting for a good games is more fun than actually playing good games.
Bob: So considering your customers enjoy waiting for games more than playing them are you considering to continue to delay big titles even farther into the future.
Phil: I can't make any specefic comments about that at this time.
Bob: Thank you for talking to us
Phil: My pleasure
After talking to Phil we may be able to expect some expansion packs to THE WAITING GAME that may add much more replay value. So if you havent picked up a PS3 for this game your a fool. Expect more announcements soon.
