I’ve always wondered what it would be like to play a video game on a movie theater screen. I wish a theater near me had this promo going on. If you manage to play Uncharted 2 in a movie theater listed below. Be sure to let us know how it is. Take photos or video if they let you.
They will be using PS3s connected to Sony’s 4K digital cinema projectors. This is the first time they have done this. I think it’s a great idea!
On Oct. 5 and 6, four theaters in San Francisco and Thousand Oaks, California, Rosemont, Illinois and Bellevue, Washington, will give viewers a chance to play the upcoming action game “UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves” title — on movie screens equipped with Sony digital-projection technology.
The first night will be a private invitation-only event, while the second event will be open to the public, to be publicized through radio and social networking sites.
“This is the first time we’re doing it in a theater. We think it’s a start of something for us, and hope we can build this into a standard element in the movie-going experience,” he said. “Our goal in converting theaters to digital is to go beyond the traditional movie-going experience and focus on helping exhibitors find ways to fill seats.”
“Gaming will be an important part of that equation.”
