VR Game Dream Career Storyline Ideas

gordsellar5 Comments

It’s mine! It’s mine this week! And boy is it long-winded:

You’ve been approached by VR-Box, a new home entertainment system startup, for the creation of five new videogames for their home system. They’re reviewing submissions from several different people, and their offer is that, whoever submits the most 5 ideas deemed most interesting and most profitable, gets a position with them simply hanging around thinking up ideas for video games for some collossal amount of money.

The system is an immersive, virtual reality game. People playing will know they’re playing, they won’t be at any special risk physically or psychologically. (No more than with a regular computer game, say.) But it will look more “real” (using a helmet which, yes, works on the brain by nerve induction or something) and the system will be of course far more flexible than anything now on the market

    Uh, the question mysteriously changed sometime on Thursday, I think. I first checked it on Wednesday, wrote it up then, and the Transitus emailed me. It’s possible Rob added her name to the F5 page and that’s what caused the clank, I don’t know. Anyway… I wonder who answered which question!

    I did the dead one, ’cause I could make it funny. Sort of.

    Yeah, I did the rounds last night and noticed the VR one was winning. Too bad, though: I’m curious about answers to both questions. Ah well… maybe some other time I can resubmit the ghost one, and see what others have to say. *shrug* No biggie.
