Idol for geeks (Score 1)

Sounds totally different than any previous tv shows. Seems natural, kind of Asimovian avatarical communication and entertainment. Guess it depends on scaling and if they can bring in alot more people than current title can handle, they could have some massive opportunity. To be a big hit they need to have some incredible graphics. The more life like it is the more it might bring in some non-gamers. Going for an all new world, without a preset story line is also a good idea for the first start. I agree if they brought in a Star Wars universe, to many people would be crying about the storyline. I can definatley see all the power gamers totaly going for it just to get their 10 mins of fame. As long as they make the computing requirement off the charts powerful than it will be good for the economy as a few million gamers upgrade their system just to try it out. How could you not try it?
