For those who have not seen it. I can say I'm not surprised to see this so soon, or atleast the beginning of it so soon. What do you think about it?

-S2k

P.S. The above feature discussed will be featured in BYOND V40.2!
How much you want to bet that 10 years after it's release, it will be a carcinogen :P
Haha, Harvest Moon: Farmyard smell edition.

:D
In response to Elation
Even better...

You know how our government is getting creative with it's weaponry (aka, the "Gay Bomb", hehehe)... Something like this could be used to make a "Farmyard smell beam" :P
In response to Kunark
Gay bomb!? I've never heard of that. Remember my government only has about 10 nukes, so fill me in!

Sony-"Feel the expierence of someone shooting you multiple times, like in james bond for instance. Now would you like to feel a rocket coming at your head faster then a speading car? Then this is the game for you.


Name- "Feel Death!"

People copy right and patent things they may never use in their life time, but think its a good idea at the time, and patent it, just in case in the future they will decide to use it.

Nintendo does it all the time. That dosen't nessesscarly mean they are going to use or even develope what they have patneted.

I have always been a cyber punk fan, and I have also always thought that the stuff in cyber punk animes and games would someday be a possibiity. But I have never once thought that they would be directly *beaming* (as the article put it) in to your brain.

I thought that they would be taking the decker idea from games like Shadowrun.

The future is upon us, literly, and I cant wait to see this kind of stuff become open to the public. I would more then willingly submit myself to study reasearch for sony or any other company if there was some sort of listing I could write/sign up to.

This could literly take the gaming industy into new terroties. Hell... It could turn out like the Matric, unless it already happened. <_<;;

All I want to know is if it gets everyone in the room, or if you have to sit in a particular spot. If you mum walks in the room carrying an extremely hot cup of coffee in a slap-stick-dangerous-way, then suddenly gets the image of a bullet flying at her face...
Yawn. Come back when someone patents a (working) holodeck.

...Then you are a very silly person. :p
Considering the risks involved you may like to submit some of these other research experiments:

- Morning sickness treatments.
- These new things called 'Cigarettes'.
- 'Cure for the common cold', now with free trip to the Gulf!
- Fallout-survival test.
- Plastic surgery (1700s style!)

Our government was developing a bomb to throw on terrorists that would release so many pherimones(sp?) in the air that the terrorists would find each other sexually irresistable.

Maybe it's bushs' way of telling people that "gay is evil" :P
In response to Elation
I would like a game that made it just like you were actually there, and you didnt have to use a controller to control yourself... Like a dream that you remember everything about, and that has a good constructed plot :P

But if that ever gets invented, you're going to see people trying to control people's minds with such devices.
In response to Kunark
I'm not going to start paying to dream, y'know!


Nice idea though, it'd be like a fully immersive Movie.
In response to Elation
I mean, who'd was shrooms anymore when you could be superman himself??
