Qualcomm & Georgia Tech join to create an augmented reality game studio - from The Inquirer

With the potential of great benefit to the future of the gaming ideology, Qualcom wish to harvest young minds to develop a touch-screen low-res multi-touch [insert other buzzword here] pong - wupee. Mobile gaming is for the bus-stop/train ride home... Ultimately better suited to chess/scrabble or the hordes if other existing rudimentary games that can be put down at a whim - when the train stops. The last thing people need is to be immersed in a believable cyber reality. Imagine them missing their stop because they're in Zog's shrub caves farming spiky essence cubes, getting zapped by their cell phone! When all they want is to get home; Remember home? Where those better gaming platforms are!

Georgia Tech: I hope you don't bow down tho their corporate greed, their investment in you is clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing.
