    ...just wanted to see if anyone was playing this game at all..


    I JUST picked it up.. Very intriguing idea.. Reportedly, Hideo "Metal Gear" Kojima was feeling guilty about videogames keeping kids indoors on nice days...So he designed a GBA game that incorporates light sensor into the cartridge...

    In order to get the full experience of the game, you HAVE to play it outside in the sun..

    (See..the game itself involves you running around with a weapon called the Gun Del Sol.. It's a solar powered pistol used to fight zombies, vampires and the like.. If you play the game during the day, you can recharge the gun at ANY time, pretty much.. If you play it at night, you're much more limited on where and when you can recharge the gun..

    Also, you can ONLY kill vampires during the day.. So if you find one, you have to save the game, and then come back in the morning and keep going)

    It's a quirky title, so far, but i find it's really starting to grow on me..

    What do y'all think?
