Blog Post #9 - Future Games

My favorite genre of game is an action adventure game. Action adventure games are my favorite genre of games because they get me addicted quick and they make me jump for joy when I accomplish killing terrorists. This relies on user created content by certain moves the avatar can create to stop their opponent. A particular player will choose what direction they will take in a action packed game world. It also relies on the mechanics of an action packed game as far as using collision detection, movement, and the travel of bullets or knives. This genre is filled with many modes of playing one violent game. A player can pick their own character, their own guns, their own ambushes, and their own places to take over and reign hell. Many boys at a young age choose this genre based on actions create from a movie script. That is why I choose to play action packed games over other genres. An action adventure game has movie scenes and a major story to the whole game. It also brings up a lot of controversy for the fans and the critics in the gaming industry. Why does this have a lot of usage in the future? People will probably create their own action stories and scenes for an action adventure game in the future. Stories can be so drastic that even the avatar can die at the end. Action packed games right now focus on user created gameplay. They can turn into a user created environment where a player is free to pick their own enemies and weapons to use in all of the levels.

One action adventure game I have chose to play frequently is Grand Theft Auto 4. Now I am pretty sure you have heard of this violent game before. This game has approximately 5 game modes that consist of driving, walking, shooting, exploring, etc. It amazed me when I played the game for the first. I never knew how much I could choose to do in the game. User created content consists of customizing your vehicle and choosing your own missions. The missions are mandatory but you can simultaneously go through them at any time. You can also explore the city as well. Now, this can be changed in the future in order to make something better. Remember when I said that the player can pick their own enemies and levels. The development team who were working on Grand Theft Auto can create a simulation where the player can develop his own missions, develop his own weapons, and develop his own enemies. Now lets say a player wants to make fiction weapons. He or she can go to a menu screen and use certain parts and put them together to create their own magnificant weapon.The same thing goes for everything else. They can learn this stuff in order to carry it with them if they decide to get into the military. So I would play the action adenture games for most of my time.
