yes like i said! google really push the idea of people fighting each another instead of fighting the machine!

Looks dumb

AWESOME!!! I'm gonna play it right now

Ah no! It's only for androids... God dammit

I don't know why you guys would be concerned about this kick ass looking game. This is like an mmorpg but in real life!!! Just imagine people can wear gear in real life or some bracelet that will let you know the character name. Ahh! This is also I heard. Going to be available on the iPhone as well. So yeah, Im really fuckin excited about this one!

Haha, that is a good idea. And if somebody asks "what are you doing?" I can say that I'm playing irl mmorpg and then I'm going to loot all kind of fancy stuff and equipment while traveling and collecting XM

The augmented reality video game app will give consumers a reason to buy Google's augmented reality eyewear. $1500 dollars for the eyewear when it is available.

Ingress: Google’s Strange New Game
November 17, 2012

John Hanke is the head of Niantic Labs, the Google unit that created Ingress, a new global alternate reality game.

Let’s quickly look at some of what Hanke was up to before he worked at Google.

After graduation from the University of Texas at Austin, Hanke, “Worked in foreign affairs for the US Government in Washington, DC and Southeast Asia.” Nice and vague. *wink* *wink*

Hanke went on to become the CEO of Keyhole, Inc., a company that specialized in geospatial data visualization and had multiple connections to the black world. Keyhole, Inc. received financial backing from the CIA (via In-Q-Tel). Google acquired Keyhole, Inc. and the associated technologies became Google Earth, Google Maps, and other Google services.

This is relatively bland so far, I know, but I’ll leave it up to you to decide if any of the following is strange, given Hanke’s long association with the U.S. Government.

It might be helpful to keep Secrets in Plain Sight in mind as you wade into this one.

In Ingress, Google wants people to be physically present at the locations that are in the game to confront, “A mysterious energy,” and to, “Choose a side.”

“The Enlightened” seek to embrace the power that this energy may bestow upon us.

“The Resistance” struggle to defend, and protect what’s left of our humanity.

Fabian Bustamante, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the McCormick School of Engineering, has looked at using the type of technology used in Ingress for what he calls, “Soft control.”
