Thinking that there will still be PC-based video games 50 years from now is equally dumb. ;)

I'm so there dude.

The only full length game I've played all the way through twice is HL2.  I just have a great time with it.  Can't wait for HL3.

A new updated and expanded version of M.U.L.E. would be pretty cool but I'm sure only us old timers would play it.

X rated Chess.. oh wait. thats out there already (Love Chess)

An addon for the "Sims" "Pron movie producer"

LOL

What the next great game will be I dont know. Every time when I think I've seen it all something new gets thrown out there.

Personally Id like to see computerised versions of the old Avalon Hill Wargames like "BlitzKreig", Kreigspeil"

I miss playing those games. I just dont miss the 3000 little carboard squares you had to be careful not to loose lol

For a moment I thought about coding that up and emailing it to you Skuzzy, but I'm not proficient in C right now, so it would probably take me more time than the laugh would be worth...

However, I bet HT could bang that out for you in a few hours or less.  Post it for download if he does!

Oh, I could care less about it (I could write it in a few hours).  I thought the title of the thread was asking to predict what the next great PC game would be.

Tried to make a funny, and who would have thunk, some actually took it seriously.
