Chris Taylor - Image 1 Chris Taylor has a console title up his sleeve, and it's 'non-genre specific'. We try to cut to the chase and sink our teeth into the juicy bits, as Andy Robinson of CVG reports.

If you remember a previous interview, the Supreme Commander was notoriously tight-lipped about the handful of titles Gas Powered Games is now currently developing; he's just as snippy with the info as ever. But CVG did manage to slip a few tantalizing hints by him, specifically one of the titles in development being, and I quote, "very different." He elaborates: "Although it shares and has genetic routes in a lot of different areas it's not one specific thing."

Chris Taylor hopes that the game would appeal not only to the typical gaming crowd, but to other, largely-ignored audiences as well - namely the older and female gamer demographic.

When asked about the inspiration behind the rather sudden departure, Chris Taylor had this to say:

"
I really want to see how broadly we can take the concept by applying the theory that games should be fun and it shouldn't exhaust you, tap you out until you go to bed and the images of the game are still in your head. I want games to be like listening to music, or watching a good television show or reading a book. It's getting a little more complex as time goes on but I think it's really starting to become a real concept."

Finally, someone who's not afraid of trying something new. We writers here at QJ are expecting a lot of good things from this man, and you should be too - for all we know, he may just be cooking up something  that would change the meaning of the word 'game' as we know it.

I'm really happy seeing this. Still i'm really wondering about Non-genre specific. A genre is something like telling in wich direction it is about. Well everything what happens in life, everything we make, we can tell others what kind of thing it is. Basicly what i mean, even if he makes something that you can make all other kind of games with, or can do alot of other countless stuff with, i don't think you cant give it a genre name. Like a "non-genre specific"-genre ;)
