Despite a few harrying run-ins with some large white tents at Manhattan's Fashion Week-hosting Bryant Park, we can honestly say we have no idea what's "in" this year for arcade gaming headgear. Still, even with Konami's lack of zebra print or a sly celebrity endorsement, we've got to hand it to them for this fashionable new "Metal Gear Arcade" number. The arcade game is based on Metal Gear Online, but the head gear adds 3D and head-tracking (http://www.engadget.com/tag/headtracking/) to the experience. There's also a physical gun controller, and the sit down arcade cabinets pump out your gunplay in huge 5.1 sound. This new arcade incarnation of the game will be playable at the AUO Expo in Japan this week, but we have no idea how long it will be until we can look this badass from the comfort of our own couch. Hit up the source link for a riveting video in Japanese that details this exclusive, outside-the-house experience.Metal Gear Arcade mixes 3D glasses with head-tracking for this season's hottest new look (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/21/metal-gear-arcade-mixes-3d-glasses-with-head-tracking-for-this-s/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Sun, 21 Feb 2010 06:10:00 EST.
