That's what drew me to VRML back in the day, then to RenderWare much later on. I think the closest we've gotten is the Quake 1 engine. Not so much because it was this perfect, data-driven system, but rather because for a period of a couple years most of the cool 3D stuff was being done in it -- from art to tools to mods to machinima and all that. Once other accessible 3D engines arrived the community split into a million little pieces, and in some ways we've been trying to recover ever since. That's my take on it, anyhow. Cheers from Chicago, Patrick Hi Troy-

I know this isn’t what you mean when you talk about Web 2.0 and games, but I thought you’d appreciate it none the less…

That’s my take on it, anyhow.
