Imitation is the highest form of flattery, eh?
Even if it isn't Sanctuary, it is idea that will eventually come into it's own.
Movies to computer games and computer games to movies have all been done for years.
I guess what Howe mentioned is somehow different? Game plus interact with the show? Effect the storyline? I dunno, I don't have a clear picture of what he means yet.
I think the interactive Sanctuary building MW talked about sounded cool - walk down a hallway and new scenes unfold, more backstory, more clues and character bits. I guess it is a lot of work and expense for not much reward, though. I would hate to have to sit through a commercial every 30 virtual steps.
Speaking of commercials, I don't really notice them too much; I'm conditioned to their presence but Requiem was another matter. I think I developed one new ulcer every commercial break! I begrudged every break up of the flow of the story, the suspense.
I wish commercials were somehow a thing of the past, there must be some new marketing paradigm, using products, or something that can substitute for commercials? Advertising money makes a show possible, so I don't know what could work.
