wow get across "the Bushnell Threshold" Today I come across the latest WOW Gold news on the internet. The following is the news. World of Warcraft has passed the Bushnell Test. While that may sounds a good thing, it's not, really. Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari and Father of Video Games has been watching what his sons (the Brothers of Video Games?) have been playing. What passing the Bushnell Test is, apparently, is when the boys stop playing a game. Doesn't sound exactly like a ringing endorsement, eh?"The Bushnell Threshold is... I watch my sons, and because they're my sons, they tend to start things at the beginning, or sometimes a little bit before," Bushnell clarified. "So they play and play and play and play, and all of a sudden, they don't play any more. They stayed with World of Warcraft for a long time."My older son all of a sudden got Mage 72 or whatever it is and quit. All of a sudden. Cold turkey. I didn't think it was going to happen. And my 14-year-old is getting close to there, which is surprising." Well, excuse me if I don't just fall over and abandon my gaming choices because of what a teenager does. Speaking as someone who has quit and come back to WoW multiple times, (usually returning 6-9 months away from an expansion...) they'll be back. They'll play with their new game, and when it's not like WoW, they'll abandon it and come back. World of Warcraft will disappear some day - the people will be gone and the servers will go dark. But that day is not coming for a decently long period of time. It would take at least 5 years, and things would have to go seriously wrong for WoW at this point to be completely gone at that time. Certainly more wrong than a particular teenager, even a Bushnell, losing interest.The Bushnell Threshold, he explained, is passed when his sons lose interest in a videogame - something his eldest has just done with WOW. Bushnell was saying that he thinks WOW will leave a vacuum in mass-market gaming when it eventually runs out of steam. "I don't see anything being worked on to replace that when it burns itself out, which it ultimately will," said the entrepreneur, soon to be played by Leonardo DiCaprio in a film. "In fact, World of Warcraft just passed what I call the Bushnell Threshold. "The Bushnell Threshold is.. I watch my sons, and because they're my sons, they tend to start things at the beginning, or sometimes a little bit before," Bushnell clarified. "So they play and play and play and play, and all of a sudden, they don't play any more. They stayed with World of Warcraft for a long time.
