Video Sundays: The Modern Charade Continued, Video Games Edition

Last month (with Jerry Lewis and Michelangelo Antonioni) we noted the art cinema trope (#2301 for those counting) of characters learning to live in the modern world by accepting and taking part in an imaginary charade.

Now, in 2009, we begin to see a video games developing a similar theme to an extreme degree. The difference with video games is that it is no longer just the protagonist of the medium that has to take part, but the actual user/spectator as well!

Thanks to Kurt Shulenberger, author of the excellent video games blog Bliterations, for directing me to the Natal/Peter Molyneux demo.
