Augmented Reality gaming?
So Google Glass is basically around the corner - we've had demos and specs (har har pun), and pretty soon they're gonna open it up to pre-orders.
If the reviews are to be believed (and given the novelty of the tech, they may be slightly exaggerated), then Glass provides a relatively comfortable, always-on, always-connected experience. For now they've restricted what can be installed on them, but it shouldn't take too long for that market to open up, which leads me to my question - is anyone planning on building an AR game for the platform? Is AR gaming even worth pursuing?

Whether it'd be financially profitable, possibly, if you either get on early with something novel while the market is empty, or if a lot of people adopt the device (I have no idea how many people are likely to own one).
