That's an interesting question. My guess is that the original/semi-original stuff they will be inspired by are games like Halo, Mass Effect, Portal, StarCraft, Bioshock, movies like Avatar as mentioned, District 9 and Inception. A

I can relate to this post, but I pause at the contrast between this: "I was given work to do and I did it well. The work wasn't interesting anymore, but it was easy." - "It was just so comfortable." And this: &qu
