| it shouldnt piss you off that rockband/guitar hero emulatore real instrument playing, being able to press 5 buttons on a small plastic guitar rather than learning to utilize all 22 frets on all 6 strings of a real guitar will be too hard for some(ive been playing real guitar for half my life, and everyone seems to think im the best theyve heard besides famous players)
and about the reality of video games, its not going to stop. virtual reality already is real, but it isnt what youre thinking of. virtual reality is any game you play today. simulated reality is what youre thinking of. prototypes have been made but nothing rock solid yet. simulated reality is literally being put in to a universe created by a programmer, feeling pain, smelling the plants, using your strength to swing a sword, peripheral vision, and seeing from ur character exactly how you see from your own eyes.
but whos to say that this hasnt already happened?
isnt it possible we're already living in a simulated reality?
theres so many "impossible" questions, that this could answer.
idk if it was a dream or what, but my first memory, ever, is being a teenager, about 15 years old. i was in an arcade, and had just finished playing a simulated reality game where i was an alien, and i had died. i looked at my watch and thought to myself, "hey, another hour before i have to be home, time for one more game". and i played the next one i saw, i dont remember the name or if it even had one, but from the display on the side it was a human family. so i put the thing on my head and the gloves on my hands and got in to the game, then i saw a tunnel of light, and had my second memory. me in my hallway at 3 years old. how strange is that, huh?
had to have been a dream...or was it?
P.S.
Im not joking about that part about me bein 15 in a simulated reality arcade. i truly beleive thats why i am here today. |
