रियल वर्ल्ड gaming

Real world gaming

Majoy is all about balancing strategy and brute force in a real world setting

First-person shooting games definitely give an adrenaline rush. They do, quite admittedly, send the pulse racing, but they really don’t do anything more than that. After all, at the end of the day, you're just sitting in one place staring at a computer screen. But there's another way to do it.

Put electronic guns in the hands of gamers, make them don uniforms bristling with sensors and put them in a setting that lends itself to shooting around corners and you have yourself an entire new game. Its called Majoy and its all about balancing strategy and brute force in a real world setting.

Players are even given a PDA that plots the position of other players and feeds them combat information. But apart from all the interactive technology that’s at work here, the best part is that you're playing with and against real people, and you really have to move to beat the game. That should put to rest any couch-potato inclinations.
