David Braben

David Braben (Elite) wrote an interesting article for the BBC (thanks Slashdot Games for the link). Here's an excerpt:
The games industry is at a watershed right now. We have been moving ever more to games that are driven by the subject matter.

But there comes a point where, as with the film industry before us, the artistic content becomes the main driver rather than just a small part, and the extra impetus given by the massive step-up of Xbox 360 and the forthcoming PlayStation 3 has the potential to push us into this new era.

Very interesting and a very good read. Here's the link:
