Forums - Sony Discussion - TGS 2012 Vita booth: 'Box! Open Me' is the biggest little surprise of Tokyo Game Show

Tagged games:

Alternate title: AR gaming done right. Seriously, most of the applications I'd seen before hadn't sold me one bit, but this is quite special, the co-operative aspect adds a whole new dimension.

Box! Open Me for PlayStation Vita is the next pleasant surprise from Tokyo Jungle team PlayStation C.A.M.P. At its core, the augmented reality puzzle game is simply about the process of opening boxes — wooden crates, metal lockers, and high security safes.

There's a trick to opening each one. The wooden crate, for example, has metal clamps that slam the box's lid shut whenever a player tries to open it. It's also a mimic of sorts, a fanged creature that bites down whenever the player tries to reach inside by touching the Vita touchscreen.

Opening the boxes has another twist: they require two players and two Vitas working in tandem to solve.

Looks cool!

But the question remains, what's inside the box

Is it Life-changing?



well..this game seems to have a lot of depth to it than I initially imagined. Will keep an eye on this for sure

Looks very very cool. Would love to see an interactive game like this. Was reading the comments in the linked article and someone mentioned User created content. If sony could do something like this where you could create your own augmented reality scenes - this would be totally awesome.

Come on let's be honest who actual cares about this?

Not bashing just saying.

What was that? Who ever made that should put their efforts to something else.



Box: Open me, silly title but looks interesting.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.

Conrad Zimmerman from Destructiod seemed to enjoy it!



looks interesting. the problem i see is, not everyone has a perfect sized table he can walk around like in the video so if you do it on your table in the living room you have to do it on your knees or something^^ ok you could sit on the couch but maybe you have to change your position and have to stand up then which means i would have to move my ass omg lol
