Sounds cool.

Using VR and some sort of light gun, I can see it beaing a good idear.

Would be good in a Lasertag game but I wouldn't sit at my PC with one on, I'd feel like a right idiot.

Would also be good to stick on your little bro/sis who's being a pain and wont leave your room and go kamikazee lol

Looks great

.
Finally no suicidal irrealistic idiots, just peopel who run for cover in the fear of getting pain by getting shot.

oh dear...that is deeply uncool! but i agree about strapping it to somebody irritating.
the only way i can possibly sympathise with this product is if it has support from somme sort os "massage" game

I think the Mrs would walk out in 2 seconds flat if i was walking round the house with that on.

Wood be great for Arcade shooters, i play Time Crisis when after watching a film every now and then, only situation i see it shining in tbh.

Be great if they did forcefeedback underpants, groin shot for the win LOL

How can anyone say it's not cool. In the picture there are girls wearing it.
Proof.
Fact.

"WHAT. HAVE. WE. DONE?!"

That will never happen, they would be out of their minds to make something that actually hurt.

At worst this will probably give you a little rumble in the hit area, probably as powerful as the rumble in the Xbox 360 pad at best. People will still be suicidal idiots in games.

snowdog · 24 Oct 2007 at 22:31

Bah

.
I'd like something to be designed that actually hurts, made for men not little kiddy's.
If it's just a rumble then it sucks imo, not worth 180 at all.

Sone · 24 Oct 2007 at 23:02

wasn't there something similiar about 10 years ago, i think it was called the interactor

It would just be asking for someone to sue them TBH.

Now I'd love one of them for fps games. Knowing where I'm being shot at from would be so much easier than onscreen display.
Would need to be a lot cheaper for me to buy one though.

That is just wrong on so many levels... Just imagine how daft you'll look wearing it... Will never take off, except for lonely people...

So true. Apart from it being sad, its too pricey and way too bulky. You'd sweat like mad during the summer with that thing on!

Legless · 25 Oct 2007 at 02:15

Remember years ago in the arcades when you would see people wearing those bulky VR goggles playing some crappy 3D game... You would just walked past and laughed at them...

agnes · 25 Oct 2007 at 04:16

LOL, just watched that interactor video on youtube..... my god! peed my self with laughter when i heard "what have we done!" LOL, so 80's!!! man i miss the simple days

this its self though could kick off if it had the right support amd marketing lol, imagine your at the arcase, 4 buddies get into pairs, each team has a single arcade machine with time crysis or something, vs each other, and you have to shoot each other, your movement in the suit moves the char... would be a great laugh if you ask me.
