GDCE Keynote on The Future of Games

Posted by Zonk on from the news-from-the-front dept.

Gamasutra is reporting on Sony Executive VP Phil Harrison's keynote at the Game Developer's Conference Europe. He discusses where he thinks games are, and should be, going. From the article: "We have to continue to put creativity first, otherwise we will turn into a formulaic industry. It's up to us all to... try to put innovation foremost, otherwise the consumers will go elsewhere. If we're not exciting these eyeballs better than anyone else, people will go watch Lost."

    Did we hit a time warp or something? Is this "Slashdot: News From Ten Years Ago. Stuff That's Ancient History" or something?
