ok so recentily i find my self asking other people what they think the future of gaming is. most reply with:graphics,game play,and inovation. ok well thats descriptive and helpful :/ these people are in my books are real gamers to,not just fanboys of any one series of game or system, but basicly every person i could ask with any gaming history. the questions i asked were: what would you like to see getting made into a game?(my dad said "a............... pool cleaning game",him being a pool cleaner.wow funny image in my head of trying to make that into a game type).another question was:what are your favorite types of genras of games?(this is where it gets interisting)a friend replied:"i love games that emerces you into that games world, the kind where you forget its a game".

another good answer i got was "user content",in the next two years we(the gaming community)will see games coming out such as :www.spore.com
the main stay of these games is by users(gamers) making their own unique items/objects/weapons/etc...as more people play these games making thier own content, that games "universe" continues to expand indefintily.

Now that really got my mind buzzing, with the idea of "forgetting its a game"
made me realize what a video game could really be,could it really be called a video game anymore?

a simulation?

where this post is going...

with all this in mind,i attempt to piece together what could resemble a game.user content,vast world ever changing,realism,..

sorry i will continue this post another time,duty calls.
P.S. i apoligize for grammer and spellllling errors.

with my quest continuing onword to create what my mind sees. back to location, asking my friend where would you like a game setting to be? one such person replies, oooh "the bacara"

(a 5 star hotel about 5 min north of where i live,being more like a villa rather thana hotel)would make a great counter strike map!! the ct's would start on the peir extending over the ocean, and the terroists would start in the car park.
from that i got the idea of GOOGLE EARTH, what if google earth could be used in gaming to create real world settings?of course bit mapping would have to be loaded for building skins, but the terrian would be real.really real.

and this is where i decided "a zombie game/simulator"

why zombies?.....
why not.

being a huge zombie film fanatic myself,i world love to defend my home town against the un-dead hordes.using what ever i could get my hands on ranging from firearms to pool poll(think pike).

i believe it would be every persons dream to wreck havoc in their own hometown
