Hollywood director Steven Spielberg reckons that home consoles will someday go "the way of the Dodo bird," and will be replaced by a resurgence in virtual reality technology."Now we're all playing at home and someday we'll be playing directly on our TV sets, bypassing all of the platforms," Spielberg told The Guardian, adding that consoles will end up like old "videogame parlours" and "the Dodo bird."
The director also talked about the future of gaming and his excitement over virtual reality and 3D gaming technology.
"In the short term I would love to start seeing 3D games developed where with a good pair of glasses we get a real three-dimensional experience in front of an appropriate monitor that is designed just for 3D," said Spielberg.
"I really think virtual reality, which experimentally came and went in the eighties, is going to be redeveloped, just like 3D is being redeveloped today, and that's going to be the new platform for our gaming future."
