Breakout Played on the Side of a Building

Deathsythe | June 06, 2007 | Video | Misc

I am not 100% certain how this was accomplished. My guess would be with decent computer programming knowledge and a very large projector. The 2 guys who did this; Arjan Westerdiep and Benjamin Gaulonhad, have recreated the retro game Breakout on a very large scale.

I always love when people take blow up the size of games like this and the movements seem to respond well.

Pretty damn neat how the building wall parts react so well. That must have taken a damn long time to work out perfectly. Nice find indeed.

Wow thats amazing that they could get it to recognize the windows as the equivalent of a block. Not to mention the projector and how huge that is.

What do you guys think the next nintendo system?

Indeed it is impressive. If only they could figure out how to destroy windows with that orb of doom.

That looks pretty neat. Now I'm just wondering when someone is going to put the arcade versions of Mario Bros and Donkey Kong on the side of a building.

Just kidding, but that would be an interesting video to watch if someone could pull that off AND post it on YouTube.
