Washington Square Park, NYC
CheapyD and/or defender should go, either to take pictures or to throw bottles. Either way really.

That is cool, and by cool, I mean extremely dorky.
I will try to make it there.

I think I'll go check it out. Seems too stupid not to be amusing.

OMG...that is just too cool. It may be a little geeky but at the same time its an incredible idea.
I remember one year they played a giant monopoly on some campus...now with high-tech you can play a GIANT human Pac-Man...this is just great.
Also has anyone heard about the billboard in times square that has a cell-phone racing game that you can play from the street? Its kinda cool too.
Gaming rox!

Couldn't they do the positioning with GPS cellphones and eliminate the need for 5 controllers and constant updates between humans? Seems like it would be easier that way. How accurate are GPS readings, 10-20 feet?

I don't live in Manhattan, but I can think of a lot of better things to do than watch a bunch of idiots in stupid looking costumes running around like jackasses. Oh wait, that makes them like everyone else on the island.
Ha, just kidding, I love NYC!

I made it down there yesterday, but it was pretty lame, as far as I could tell.
All I was able to find was one guy running around with a cellphone and a pacman flyer taped to his arm.
It was too lame to even take a picture.

I actually thought that it would turn out to be an interesting event.

PacMan ran by me while I was going to a study group. Looked kinda cool, but my Evidence Exam took priority.
