Executives at Sony are forecasting 100,000 sales for this week's release of Afrika, a game where you play photojournalist and shoot photos instead of bad guys. It's a major departure from exploratory games of the Myst genre, or the build-your-own landscape of Second Life. Afrika's premise is that the high-definition animals will be so much fun to watch that you won't be bored out of your mind. What I want to know: How long until the furries hack their way into the scenery?
