I hope 100 TB drives are out by the time HL3 comes out.
By the time H3 comes out your great great great grand children will be reminiscing about how games once were about gameplay and plot and not the 100th version of Call of Duty or Assassins Creed. I'd say Madden too but let's face it no one will play it 150 years from now unless it's VR.
I thought the same thing about touchscreens when they first came out. I really did think they were the future of gaming. Seemingly limitless buttons in limitless combinations. Touch and drag game pieces directly, action and vision in the same place.
Turns out gaming on mobile is shit. So so shit.
Maybe VR will end up the same way. Its pretty neat now while its still new and shiny, but maybe it never actually reaches potential.
The current crop of VR tech dates back to 2012, not exactly what I'd consider new and shiny
