| Yep, not ready for prime time (I'm sure the thing costs about $10,000), but this hold some promise for a "merged" media for TRPG and CRPG...

Next, no. A future version ... likely. In a decade, we'll probably be playing D&D with people across the globe via virtual game tables ... | |

Nah... a week next thursday! [:)]
Come on admit it, you use to think about this years ago when you were young and the internet was still only something the military used.
I know I'll admit it, before there was the matrix I'd dream of a central computer that the DM would work with and all the players would be hooked up into a virtual environment.
Man I'm still waiting for that day! | |

I was at a Marcus Cinema in Oshkosh, WI over Christmas and they had something similar to this. It was a floormat, probably 4'x8', that reacted when people stepped on it and actually had a couple simple games that you played by stepping on it. I didn't have much time to explore, as we went to a late King Kong and the theater was closing. At the time I didn't even think of the technology involved, but it might end up these tables are available sooner and cheaper than we think. | |
