I really feel like gaming will be stagnant until Oculous Rift hits mainstream and developers learn how to do a fully integrated VR MMO. Once that happens its .hack for everyone! Any "innovations" before that will be wiped away. At least in the short term, the crappiest and least innovative MMO that is fully immersible will blow any non VR game out of the water no matter how innovative it is. In the long term you will eventually see the same scenarios unfolding that you see now and then it'll stagnate until the next big technological leap.
