Jason made me think of an interesting point. If they wanted to immerse you

in their world, shouldn't they have created a world in which to immerse you?

I mean, what we've got now is some navigation elements and merchandise.

Walking through the mall is more of an immersion. Instead of dizzying

animations, couldn't they have created landscapes (real or abstract) that

you could explore and discover the merchandise (kind of a banja-esque,

role-playing adventure, kind of thing). Just a thought.
