Spectator mode in modern games…
April 22nd, 2008
I’ve been thinking about this for a while. We all watch sports, but why not watch computer games? I doubt there is much of a market for watching Half-Life or Halo, but maybe a future version of Rock Band or SingStar?
I’m not the only one who wants this, as at GDC many presentations casually mentioned it. I think it’s has a brighter future than hardcore games, but right now the current crop of games aren’t worth watching (no social aspect). Microsoft is pimping PGR 3 as a game to watch. No thanks.
How about? (all live – using networked 3D games)
- So You Think You Can Dance?
- Jeopardy
- Family Feud
- NHL shootout knockout
- WWE Royal Rumble Cagematch
- UFC winner takes all
