I know that the latest thing going around for the future of gaming is VR but I think that we can go one better than that, Holograms.

Wouldn't it be cool if we had some kind of see through box and inside it was a hologram projected by some kind of projector I suppose. This way you could see all around you and you could look down on a battle field and see everything. You could just walk around the box and see what was going on from all angles. It would be like having a mini battle field in your own home. You would be playing football and see the whole pitch and search ot a pass as you can see everything and not just a selected part of the screen this way it would be like seeing little tini people that looked real running about. You could be in a race and see the car 3D not just a 3D image on a screen that if you went to touch it it would be like reality.

I know that this technology is a bit far off but it is getting closer and Air Traffic Controllers are testing a scheme thich is similar to this but it would be like a tube standing upright. This proves that the technology is there if we want it!

You mean 3D Holograms? Yeah that's a cool idea, but The projector's gonna take up a lot of space if you have a reasonable size hologram. Then again, tV's aren't exactly small.

Have you ever seen one of those telescope things that you go in a room. And then it beams a picture on a disc from around the streeys around it and you can pick up people as they walk.

If a game was like that it could be cool as long as it was easy to control.

The † character is ALT 0134
This means hold ALT, then press 0, 1, 3, 4 on the numeric keypad, then let go of ALT.
