Playing Pac-Man Against Crickets
Okay. I think we've got some grad students who really want to be game designers - or some media grad-students who actually want to be biologists. Either way... how about playing Pac-Man against real creatures?

Like crickets?

I don't really know what this really proves, other than the fact that grad students can come up with some really, really weird stuff, especially if they get to mix it with their videogaming hobby.

But I'd say this qualifies as a different form of "experimental gameplay!"

Well, crickets are much more interesting now that they've been mixed with games, no? ;)
 
Yeah, but somehow I don't think that Realistic Cricket AI (tm) is going to be taking off anytime soon for games...
