Some concepts push gaming industry forward, adding elements necessary for evolution of gaming, such as fresh and unique ideas, interesting gameplay, stunning visuals or realism. This article features some of the best concepts ever seen in video games.

If shooters are hot, you can bet there will be at least half a dozen vying to pry the hard-earned cash out of your wallet. If action/horror tittles are en vogue, don’t be surprised to see yet another Silent hill (they should have stopped after the second one.) Game developers – or at least the production companies that fork over the startup capital – have unfortunately taken a lesson from Hollywood and generally refuse to fund anything “risky,” “edgy,” or “not mainstream.” That could be supremely un-American or the ultimate expression of a free market economy based on you individual point of view.

    They missed quite few popular Original concepts. I knew that Mirrors edge would be on it before i clicked the link.

    Portal should be on this list.

      lbp is just a platformer with some neat mechanics, and a level editor. it's not really that innovative.
