There's a lot of great games out there to play right now or in the coming week. Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 are battling for the top shooter. Skyrim has nearly taken over the lives of some of the people I know. Star Wars the Old Republic is about to steal away the few remaining friends I have. And these are only a few of the games that are plowing through this winter's PC market.

What's interesting here is that these games are bleeding into what was primarily a group of gamers who stuck to their guns in shooters. They are Call of Duty fans who have found enjoyment away from Call of Duty - so much so that the market might actually be making a shift to a new genre of games.

Almost weekly now, I find myself asking the question, "Where are games headed?" What do gamers really enjoy playing and how will that influence the next group of games that are developed? Well, I'll tell you what I think, but I'd love to hear from you too. And note that what we discuss here could actually become a reality ;)
