At the TechEd Middle East Microsoft showed off a game developed in Visual Studio. The interesting thing about this is that it plays on Windows with a keyboard, on the 360 with a controller and on your Windows phone 7 series using the accelerometer.
The real awesome thing about it is that you can start the game on your phone, then keep playing (from the same spot) on your PC at work (in your lunch break of course) and then finish it on your 360 at home.
check out the demo here

The purpose of the game is to escape on rooftops – running along and jumping over crates, chairs and robots.
All you need is 2 keys on your keyboard and no you don’t need a mouse.
Good luck – my record so far is 2295 meters.

What ever happened to VR games? I liked the idea of being in the game and do what I had to do to get the job done.
Anyway – this guy below called his invention the PC VR Game Gun. Its a toy gun with an LCD screen attached to it, a Gyration Air Mouse mounted on top, which allows for some full, seemingly responsive motion-tracking in any PC game. He also ripped apart a gamepad and wired it up to the trigger in the gun.
There is also a wireless option of the gun as you can see in the 2nd video.

Have you ever wanted to be in the middle of your First person Shooter and feel the impact of the bullets?
Then this is for you:
The HTX Helmet is the next product in development for TN Games using its 3rd Space™ technology.
The HTX Helmet is worn in conjuction with the 3rd Space™ Gaming Vest and delivers blows to the head when you are fired upon.
Feel bullets whizzing by your helmet or the impact of getting shot in the head.
The helmet will communicates with compatible games to give precise, 3 dimensionally accurate impacts where it happens, as it happens.
Release date 2009 – no price yet, but I think I don’t need to know anyway.

Tripped over this sweet Flash game this morning. The idea behind Auditorium is to move these things around that… actually, I’m going to let you figure that out yourself. The game encourages jumping in and playing around to see what’s going on.
In the creator’s words:
Auditorium is about the process of discovery and play. There are no right or wrong answers; there are many ways to solve every puzzle. To get started, fill up the first audio level. We hope you enjoy the demo of Auditorium.
Demo? I’ll pay for an iPhone version if there’s one going.
This really is a very cool game. Best played in fullscreen mode which is defaults to. Hit f to force it.

Tip: hold down your arrow keys to play.
Apparently you have to land it too… (not managed this yet).

Carling’s iPint application for the iPhone has rocketed straight to number one in the iTunes free games app chart since it launched late last week.
The application gives users the chance to complete a barslide game to win a virtual pint of Carling. The iPhone then transforms into a virtual glass and when users tap the screen a virtual pint of Carling is poured.

Pretty cool iPhone app from Carling – cheap night out too!
