Blu-ray Sudoku game

[haushausman]

Enteractive is developing a Blu-ray Sudoku game that will be able to play on Blu-ray players using the remote. It also has a multi player option which is cool.

I've always wanted to learn how to play Sudoku. I will buy this if the price is right.

I never understood sudoku nor do I understand its draw... maybe
its just not for me.

Another cool way to play Sudoku in HD is Go! Sudoku.

of course.

But its not on a blu-ray...

I think everyone wants them numbers in 1080 with 40mbps streaming video.

I suck at Sudoku, my wife is great at it. We hade GO! Sudoku from the PSN already.

Yea, but it won't be nearly as interactive as the actual game.

I wonder how many sudoku puzzles can fit onto a single BD is all I want to know.

The PSN game has over 1,000 puzzles and is less than 100 megs
A 50GB double layer BD could hold a few 100,000

You could have scenes from the movie streaming behind the sudoku game.

With the size, wouldnt it be possible just to create a database of kazillions and have it randomly generate.

I love Sudoku, but this game won't get my cash (most likely).

You need to be able to keep notes for one. It's probably me, but I prefer to sit down with a good puzzle book and work at it.

I have many Sudoku puzzle books (from easy to freakish). If you haven't played it and like puzzle games, try it out. I did years ago and got hooked.

So you want a feature to write notes on screen correct?

maybe use the usb to numb out some characters.

A simple way to select numbers and have them shown in the corner of the box is good. Without that, you really can't do medium+ puzzles. The easy ones you can, but it can take a little more time.

Can't saw that I'm interested in playing against others in the slightest.

The Nintendo DS with the touch screen is the perfect interface for Sudoku. I recommend Sudoku Gridmaster on the DS for anyone wanting to play Sudoku. I like it better than even doing it the normal pencil and paper method.

I almost bought a DS for Sudoku alone.

You are able to do this in Go! Sudoku. If you have a PS3 I'm not sure why you'd want the game on a disk when the one on PSN is perfectly fine. Am I missing something?

Go! Sudoku is in 1080p. The graphics are not that hard to render. I'm kinda good at the basic time-based game but racing against the clock is HARD!

Most of that is probably the music and engine for generating backgrounds

Basically a number-based logic game

Mild abstract thinking needed in easier levels.
Often abstract thinking in mid-difficulty levels.
Mid bending abstract or Four-moves-ahead (like chess) thinking in higher levels.

Lower levels fun, higher levels hurt your head.

Nine boards, nine squares on each board.
In each of the nine boards - arrange the numbers 1-9 so that each row (from left to right, or top to bottom) has each of the numbers 1-9 in it, and each board contains no repeats:

For example:

123|456|789
456|789|123
789|123|456
------------
234|567|891
567|891|234
891|234|567
------------
345|678|912
678|912|345
912|345|678

each board has 1-9, each row has 1-9, each column has 1-9

You start with a handful of numbers in place and using logic, deduce where each remaining number belongs...

There's about 14-16 free games available from the PS3 download area... books in stores everyfrikkin'where
