That video is messed up. I hope we don't have to do that if and when it comes out.

Wait, so the 'games' you play on that thing are based on what is around you ??? That sounds incredibly retarded.

I wonder what my house would look like...But yeah,it looks like it would be really expensive.

That looks ridiculous.
It'll never sell, if it's ever released, that is.

wow...... that fails.... part of it is a good idea, but the part where you have to run around in real life makes it fail

Looks interesting, but it'll only really be practical in ARGs.

Epic lose.

What the hell?

That'd be cool, except when you can't go anywhere.

What games could this thing even have? It's more like a map and you do the things in real life. Do they expect me to shoot people in FPSs?

I bet you could just keep turning around. I wonder, does it have buttons? Or just touch screen? Cause you could keep turning around, then use a side D-pad to move and a button to shoot.

All of it's buttons are touch sensitive.

Sounds? Imagine how you'll LOOK playing that in public. That's a serious lolfest right there.

Imagine you actually kiss that princess. And it's really just a random person on the street. :D I'm guessing you wear sensors to tell the system where you are going?
