Together with Scion, global creative agency ATTIK recently launched the "Take On the Machine" Augmented Reality Game at http://www.TakeOntheMachine.com (look for the "Augmented Reality" tab at the top), where for the very first time in a commercial game, an AR marker is used as the steering wheel to drive a car. A Spectacular print ad is appearing in the September issues of Inked, Giant Robot, Juxtapoz, XLR8R, Dsport, Modified and a few other magazines, where the ads feature a removable AR marker. Here's the link to a marker you can print out to play along:

Players can use the marker or their keyboards and then enter their best scores into the global or Facebook Friends' leaderboards. Enjoy!
