I watched this three times, I am still not sure what exactly Sony is proposing.

Can anyone help me visualize what they are saying?

Besides the reporter/script writer being a total naive idiot,

Sony is going to have multiplayer matches for Uncharted 2 in actual movie theaters, supposedly in an attempt to see if it is a viable way to increase movie-theater revenue. For $15 USD up to 10 players will be able to play.


I don't think this is going to turn out as the reporter seems to think it will. $15 a pop is way too expensive for more than a one time try out.

So they are intending to just split the screen in 10 and have each player look at their own little square?

Not sure but maybe. Or play against people in another theater.

One guy pays 15 bones and hogs an entire theater.

I thought it sounded uncost effective the other way


There is simply no way....... Though it would be awesome.

Throw in pizza parties, and I bet kiddies and parents would actually pay for something like that.
