Usage monitor for PS3/Xbox 360 Gaming Cafe

[RCuber]

Hello Guys,
one of my friend's friend is planing to open a gaming parlor. he is gonna provide Xbox 360 and PS3 Consoles as the platform. He asked me if one can monitor how much time a customer has spent time playing games on the consoles. I said its not possible, but he said that a cafe in Chennai has this kind of software installed. I am not sure if the consoles he will be using would be modded/non-modded.

Please let me know if this is possible.

Thanks
Charan

Can you please ask him more details about the so called Cafe in Chennai? I could go take a look for you if you want.

yes dude, first of all i would like to mention that i have got samsung monitor which comes with timer, it goes automatically switch off by setting the time, the model no. is mentioned in signature,...
besides this, i don't really know, what i have seen in game parlors here in delhi is same thing i mentioned to you, they set timers for 1 hour or more and then increase time on tv/monitor if one wants to play more...

Ah no man , I've been busy with work recently. Don't have much time to play games. Besides, my sniper career in BF3 hasn't been kind to me , so I'm kinda recovering from that depression too

TV timer is what is used in console gaming parlors.

I have been to FOG-Federation of gamers--quite popular game parlor in Delhi malls..ithink.
What they do is that they have fixed standard timers-digital clocks for each setup.
Once you have started the game they simply start it and after youre done.They see the timers to charge accordingly.

I contacted my friend and he said that his friend is visiting Chennai to look into this. He said that there is a Gaming Parlor in Satyam Mall/Theater (?) and will be visiting that place.

As he is going to investigate himself, there is no need to continue on this thread.
