Gaming with Wall projections?

In this recent day and age, gaming is something we all very much enjoy. Whether it is Madden, Call of duty or Halo, we all play some type of game. As the years have gone on, there has been newer and newer devices coming out to the market. When I was younger it was a hard decision to pick between Game Cube or Xbox. The gaming industry is a highly competitive one where everyone is going to try to gain an advantage over the other. The Wii system was innovative because it involved movement by the gamer.

Microsoft is an industry leader in the gaming industry, with the development of Xbox and the Xbox 360. Microsoft has a large number of consumers that are interested in buying their products in both the gaming industry as well as the technological industry. With this in mind Microsoft has recently put a patent on gaming with wall projections. This is an innovative way of playing games and one that has not been thought of before. Since this is an innovative way of playing games, the patent was put in place to keep the competitors away from the idea formed by Microsoft. For a better description of the device, this is a quote from the article below: "Microsoft has been approved for a patent that could take gaming to a whole new dimension, allowing images from the TV to be projected around the room to create a 360-degree virtual display." Again this is an innovative way of playing games, and it is something that many people will be interested in purchasing. This system could be an advanced version of the Xbox Kinect. In this industry it is important to get a step ahead of your competitors so this could be huge for Microsoft down the line.

The question is would you be interested in purchasing a gaming device that involves a wall projection? To answer this question in the easiest way possible, I would say yes. I really enjoy gaming and getting an opportunity to see everything as if it was around me is something that I find to be appealing. The future will tell whether this was a successful idea or one that will crumble. Only thing we can do now is wait and see.
