I hate to say it, but in a few ways, Shogun is correct. During the years, games have become less and less creative, innovative, and in some cases, poorly made, and no arguing can change this fact. Part of this is due to the gaming community continuing to buy such games, no matter what state they may be in, and writing it off as enjoyable, either be it their dedication to the series, genre, franchise, or developer.There's nothing wrong with devotion to any of these, however, I continue to see things produced that make me frown from developers that should A)know better, and B)can do a hell of a lot better.
Don't get me wrong, there's some very nice games out there, for example, Skyrim is highly praised, but it's by far from perfect. While Shogun might be a bit extreme, he's not wrong saying that, in this example, while good, Skyrim does have it's flaws. I think the problem is, is that most people would write off these flaws, since the game is highly valued, instead of stepping back, and realizing they are there, and noting/mentioning them, instead of just writing them off.
This argument again. Games have not become less innovative.
Innovation doesn't happen overnight and in a time where nearly everything that can be made and every creative way of thinking that can be thought, in the majority has in fact already been done. People throw the word of creativity and innovation around like it's something that can be bought and sold on a store. Let me tell you this now, making something new and innovative is fucking hard as shit.
As an architecture student i literally know this fact more than anything else. Tell me, how many ways do you think you could rearrange rectangles and squares in a way that hasn't already been done in the million or so buildings and homes that are already on the Earth? This is the trend that liters the word of design in society today, nearly every type suffers this same sort of situation in their own way.
And also, you talk like the gaming industry is solely just limited to mainstream titles. Have you not heard of Minecraft? I think that's pretty innovative. What about indie games like Limbo and Bastion? And how about the culture phenomenon innovation that is Angry Birds? The video game industry is more than the traditional platform now. If you didn't know mobile/tablet games as an industry are worth roughly $34 billion, almost half of the total net worth of the video game industry. In the next decade it will easily overtake the traditional software games you're accustomed to to become the biggest entertainment industry in the world par sports.
Hmm. That's not exactly the point I as trying to make, and maybe I could have worded myself a little better, so allow me to try and rephrase myself;
You're right, there's only so much one can think of using the tools and ideas that they have at their disposal, and they can leave to the human imagination. There have been some great examples of people breaking the norm, and doing new things that have been quite... good.
However, the point I was trying to make is that in some cases, developers seem to take a step backwards, or make errors, that they should know better in making. However, when said developers make these mistakes, after being in an industry for so long, as young as the industry may still be, most people will write off these mistakes, when they should be noting them, and expressing their dislike for them, instead of simply writing them off. This is how we learn and grow as an industry, and if people aren't willing to do that, then we're going to continue to make the same mistakes or errors.
You're also forgetting that it is an industry.
Like it or not, companies exist to make money. While developers might care about innovation, the people paying them don't. Shareholders who own EA and Activison could care less about creativity. The reality is is that those re-run titles, like CoD and Madden are the cash grabbers. To put it straight, making new and creative games all the time is not economically viable because like you said, with innovation comes mistakes and errors, and a lot of them.
However with that money gained from re-run'd cash grabbers, companies like EA can push out some truly innovative games every year like Mirrors Edge.

Very... very unlikely for the foreseeable, close future. Transplanting the brain would induce massive trauma on the organ, so the procedure would lead to even further brain damage. We're a long way away from cloning even organs, so a full body replacement is even further away.The closest thing that has a chance is stem cell therapy. Stem cells are quite similar to the state the cells of a fetus are in, i.e. they can turn into various different *kinds* of cells depending on their environment. How stem cells differentiate and turn into muscle, skin or cells of organs is not yet perfectly understood, but we're getting there.
There have already been some successful, experimental therapies with stem cells. If you want your relative to get better, support stem cell research.

It was a windpipe, not a lung, liver or heart. It wasn't neural tissue either.

...we *are* getting there. However it's going to be years until these techniques can be used in humans to replace entire organs (in the conventional sense of the name).
As fast as biological medical science is progressing i wouldn't be surprised if we had this ability in the next decade to be honest. To when it would be actually affordable to be of commercial use is another issue.
For example in 2008 three scientists won a nobel prize for taking a fluorescent gene from a jellyfish and implanting it into other organisms. In 2011, there are school communities you can find who order the needed parts online and teach you how to do it in less than an hour.
As for manipulating the human brain condition, watch this video and skip to 52:20, you might be surprised how far technology actually is right now.

Yeah i'd rather not waste my time proving myself to someone on a cartoon porn website who is as about significant to me as a piece of bread because my life isn't pathetic like yours.
You stopped being entertaining when you started projecting your social insecurities onto me, so fuck this thread im outta here.

Seriously, Anesthetize elaborated or shut the flock up...see what you fail too understand is that this industry is gonna fail in the state it is in now.
I do not know what the word hipster means but it probably describes you better than me. That being said you are right I do consider myself to be an elite. Hell I had to beat a thousand other sperm cells to get where I am today. So if me beating a quad trillion more people like you in this community and beyond proves my point let's play.
P.S. I always win because I never have to try you and the people that comment in this community make it too easy. Hell effortless...
wow you just scream virgin. not only that but after reading one of your posts you're pseudo-intellectual to the point of ignorance. in any case the worst kind of individual.
i don't have to elaborate anything to you, nor do i care about winning in a subjective matter like this.
and shut the flock up? are you 10? you're afraid of using swear words, last time i checked this was a 18+ website. Your social insecurities are making me cringe.
Ha...I just tried to avoid hurting the dignity you PRETENTIOUS I copy off whatever people on internet say lookin ass had left...That said virgin? Wow people this guy can read minds all of a sudden...Did that lame as CSI show teach you how profile people...you are a FUCKING dotard in its purest form. You don't care too win in this debate so (subjective matter/this guys vocabulary could use some spice)why did you reply then ya hypocrite? I make you cringe hmm...if I wanted to make you cringe I would rather do it in person...Hell you are more sensitive than the guy on "Clerks"...Anesthetize you are soft but even more you are a cunt (yea I said it) c-u-n-capital-T, CUNTAH! No wonder your avatar is a girl...lol
Get tha fuck out...loser hahahaha!
Can you have some coherency at least, i have no idea what you just said. Then again i'm not surprised that you probably have a mental condition of some kind. And hypocritical? Do you even know the actual meaning of this word? You obviously don't otherwise you wouldn't of made such a retarded accusation.

To all that responded, exactly!!! But the reason why I don't get why people are saying to treat them more ethically! If they hated the job so much, they could quit and find another one. Its not like theres no other option. Thats why I dont get why people in the U.S still complain about it! But who am I kidding, thats how some people are and they will do anything to make their point.No they can't. China has over 1.7 Billion people, if they quit that job there are 100 more people wanting to take it, thus they have no job and can't find one because they have to compete with the 10,000 people in the area for the same job. (numbers are exaggerations but still).
Not trying to be mean, but next time I suggest you read up some more and know more about economy and the economical situations in other countries before posting. My aunt is one of the best surgeons in Wuhan, but she can't quit her bankrupt hospital because there are simply no other jobs available even though she's only paid 2500RMB per month.
(for those of you who don't know, the current exchange rate from RMB to Dollar is around 6.3:1)
@Wing, there have been multiple rebellions in the past 150 years in China. Prior to 1940, all of them failed because Great Britain and France were Imperialistic asses and shot down the rebellions.
There is a strict gun-control law in China. There is simply no way any number of unarmed civilians can beat millions of armed troops. America and the UN can't do shit against China because America owes most of its 15 trillion dollar debt to China.
Sorry if I looked like I didnt have a clue about the topic, but I know some of the people who worked at those Foxconn factories...the manager who is my 3rd cousins uncle said they could quit if they "wanted to", but they dont because like what you said once they quit someone else will take it from them, so they stay in it.The only thing I wonder about is why people report about workers committing suicide. Thats what I'm trying to express at the moment. I mean I know the economy is bad (I've seen it, its almost like in Manila's port) but I wouldn't go so far as into jumping off a roof because of a job. But then I never see what they go through behind the closed doors so I can't be entirely sure about it. So yeah :P
Well, you have to look at Japan which has one of the highest suicide rates of a developed country. Some people can't take it anymore and is stuck between letting their family down, or continuing a hellish job. So they take the 3rd option.
Same thing happened during the Great Depression.
That is misleading. A lot of that can be contributed to their culture as a whole. In a society where rape and molestation are regular if not mandatory occurrences, a stigma that money is everything despite Japan being in debt 220% of GDP, and a long history of suicide [kamikaze, seppuku etc] it's not surprising.
American society in the 1920's and Japan's society today are two very different things, so don't get too ahead of yourself yet.
