1. A video game device, which is a device operable to implement video game and phone communication, comprising:

  • an input device;

    a display;

    a three-dimensional game space generator;

    a game object locator;

    a game object entering detector; and

    a game vibrator;

    wherein said three-dimensional game space generator produces a three-dimensional game space which is a computer-generated three-dimensional space;

    wherein said game object locator locates multiple game objects in said three-dimensional game space, wherein said multiple game objects include a user controlled game object which is a three-dimensional game object controlled by the user and a certain two-dimensional area which is a two-dimensional game object controlled by said game device;

    wherein said game object entering detector identifies whether said user controlled game object moving within said three-dimensional game space enters said certain two-dimensional area located within said three-dimensional game space by identifying the locations of said user controlled game object and said certain two-dimensional area in said three-dimensional game space;

    wherein said game object entering detector activates said game vibrator when said game object entering detector identifies that said user controlled game object enters said certain two-dimensional area by identifying the locations of said user controlled game object and said certain two-dimensional area in said three-dimensional game space; and

    wherein when said video game device detects a phone call, said game object entering detector activates said game vibrator and generates a specific pattern of vibration where said specific pattern is determined by said video game device.
