Get the hang of your AR.Drone yet? Good, because while flying
dangerously close to your little brother or late-night TV show host
can be a fun diversion, it looks like things are about to get real.
Really real. We've just received word that on November 26, AR.Pursuit
-- the first of hopefully many Augmented Reality games for the drone
-- will be making its way to the app store. The rules are pretty
straightforward: one player pursues the other, attempting to bring him
down with virtual machine guns and missiles. Once caught, the players
change roles and the pursuit begins anew! That is, until someone gets
carried away and sends their air vehicle into a concrete wall or
running wood chipper. Game times are variable, from one to nine
minutes, and the app will cost you $2.99 in the app store. Now all you
need is an AR.Drone, and a friend -- with an AR.Drone. Video, PR after
the break.
