The striving is its own reward.
I guess
Am I the only one tiring of the old(er) guys, stodgy "in my day, people did things properly and men were men!" and thoroughly entrenched in their ways vs. the younger, in touch with their times and without the perspective of 40-60 years on the planet? Perhaps I just haven't been on SF long enough, maybe this is the way it's always been and I'll just get used to it.
IMO, games are a medium with more potential than any other we've seen to date. When the technology advances further, the market keeps growing at the same rate, and it starts attracting the same level talent that film and television does now it'll easily be on par with those as an art form. Perhaps Deus Ex, Half-Life 2, etc. will be the Rear Window, Citizen Kane, etc. of gaming in 30 years. Or maybe there won't be "classics" in the same sense because the medium will have changed so much more than film has over 60 years.
