“Now we’re all playing at home and someday we’ll be playing directly on our TV sets, bypassing all of the platforms. 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. And after that, will certainly be virtual reality, which just like 3D came and went in the 1950s, and now it’s here to stay in movies. ” - Steven Spielberg

Mr. Spielberg also goes into discussing where he spends his gaming time. While he plays a lot on the PC, he also throws some love at Wii.

“I get more into the microphysics of gaming, especially on the PC. I’m closer to the screen, I look for detail, I notice things more easily. The Wii platform which I adore is more of a macro experience, you know.”
