A guy who goes by the name of Robbie Cooper has been working on a rather interesting project that goes by the name of “Project Immersion”.
What he has done is project games onto a large camera lens so that he can film children playing video games whilst having them stare directly at the camera. Testing the children with different titles such as Call of Duty, Halo 3, Tekken, GTA IV and Star Wars: Battlefront, he has created a means to really study the different types of reactions and facial expressions that are generated whilst playing the games.
The video is quite intriguing to say the least due to the fact that you have the children staring straight at you and the pull and immersion of the games is incredibly evident, although some of the faces will just make you laugh.
If you are interested or want to know more about the project, follow the link below as it goes into quite a lot of depth about the entire project.

All the kids are active gamers so chances are atleast half of them have played a GTA title before. Welcome to the real world fudzy

@ Fudzy
hahaha! That’s the first thing I thought as well.
All those titles are games that they aren’t allowed
to legally play 😉
Guess everyone would’ve looked as bored as that one
kid if they gave them something like Mario Kart
