Well considering the fact that games today look as good as pre-rendered cutscenes did ten years ago:






I'd say that in another decade or so game design will be looking into improving the other senses in games. It'll start with improving audio, then possibly more immersive "rumble" game controllers, and finally more "extreme" things such as the smell-generators, etc.

Why did you have to bring that up for?  I am trying to forget the Johnny Quest butchery.  Oh god, it hurts!  WHY DO YOU INSIST ON DRIVING US ALL MAD??!

And for those that don't know, the horrible butchering of the Johnny Quest TV show had what was known as QUESTWorld, something that would be comparable to the subject at hand...  Except it wasn't realistic, it was more like flat-shaded polygons with nurbs out the yin-yang...  :shudders:

Just take a chill pill, sir. You'll be alright in the morning.

Do you really want to walk into a dungeon and smell the rot, excrement, and death of it?

I think that when full sensory input becomes part of the gaming experience, they should make another Dead or Alive: Extreme Beach Volleyball.

Interesting thought to have right before bed...

How did I know someone was going to say that?

Oh, it already has that, but it's less direct, and completely player controlled.
