| 20100331084 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A WRAP-AROUND GAMING EXPERIENCE - A computer-based system and method for providing users of software/video games with a wrap-around gaming experience. A first game is played by a user in an initial form to gather experience. A second game is then played by the user to gather further experience. If the user gathers enough experience while playing the second game, the user can return to the first game and unlock features and experience that did not appear in its initial form, basically transforming the first game into a third game. A character and its attributes can also be exported from a first game into a second game with or without modifying the second video game. | 12-30-2010 |
