Lately, I've been thinking about the state of this industry. In my opinion, Movies and Music are at a point where they're more "mature" than the videogame industry. Yes, I understand it's relatively new compared to those two. But videogames are advancing at a rapid pace. Games have the potential to be better than ever now.
However!!!..
With movies and music I don't see people missing out on great stuff just because of the company that produced it. Only in videogames will people miss out on great games because they don't like the console it's on. It's sad that developers spend years upon years making a game just to have a good portion of people thinking "it's trash " because its not on their favorite console.
The masses don't care who the parent companies are for Netflix, Hulu, Prime. That's how movies hit millions even billions of viewers. But with videogames it's become apparent how territorial and tribalistic some people are solely based off of having to purchase a console.
Will the videogame industry hit the point where people play and enjoy the latest God of War, Gears of War and Super Mario and not care who the manufacturer is? How awesome would that be for people to enjoy games no matter who produces it.
