So in 3-4 or 5 years the next generation of consoles/computers will be upon us. But what will the industry have in store for us?
A lot of emphasis is being put into 3D (out of screen) experiences in films and I wouldn’t be surprised if the gaming industry took heed of this, but on an interactive level.
The Wii I think has set the basis on this, for basic interactivity, its fairly limited but I think the next gen will continue with this (but on a 3D level).
Thoughts?

3D should be good
Also streaming and downloading games instead of buying a hard copy of them when Internet speeds are incredibly fast

Good call, by then storage space will be vast and rediculously cheap, Live and Ps3 are starting to to that more with games (tekken 6, that horror game?, older classics). So yeah it's not a million years away.

I reckon the new Xbox and Nintendo will be out Xmas 2012...
with the the PS4 out Xmas 2014...
reckon they'll all have controllers shaped like the current PS3 controller but will also work like the Wii controller...
plus there'll be cloud gaming like On Live. They'll all have Blu-ray, but you can download all the games on massive HDD drives!

Agreed Stokie1000. The PS3 controller is cheap and plasticky.
Thin client networks will be the way forward. Will also help to prevent piracy so i think the major companies will want to go this way
