the gaming market is slowly fading away

Are you INSANE!?
Do you realize this industry is booming to the point that it's exploding!?

Strangely some people think there's a lack of innovation around the industry.

Snobs! All of them!
I mean, go play The Suffering if you want a taste of someone' sick imagination, Metal Gear Solid is a story-telling experience like no other, The Legend Of Zelda series is always achieving new highs, God Of War was proof that adult entertainment doesn't need to involve breasts or stupid humour, Homeworld was released just a while back, Katamari Damaci is addictive beyond belief, Odama is insanely inventive, taking pinball in a whole new direction, I mean, COME ON! There are so many new ideas and possibilities thanks to hardware and the great minds that now thrive in this type of entertainment, this is stuff we couldn't have done EVER before this point.

Right now, with the advent of the nex-gen systems, we're going to see a WHOLE lot of innovation as the years go by, especially at Nintendo's side, with their Revolution, but imagine the kind of worlds the Playstation 3 or X-Box 360 can open up.

We can just use that extra hardware to create something that's even more and more amazing.
We can finally make those massive sprawling cities that are populated with people that actually have minds of their own, instead of the little utopias that seem to be filled with only four or three people.

And the best point I can offer,

Compare the olden days' innovation to now?
Pff, we're beating out those blocky beepy and annoying games altogether.
Granted, the oldies are classics, but that's the same as saying that movies suck just because they're new.
