    If that external box could be shrunk to the size of a PCI card, I reckon it'd be a lot better.

    Is that Jonathan "Fatal1ty" Wendell, he sure looks like him! :hehe:

    Could be pretty cool if it worked well this "game controller", though the downside would be the total lack of "sports" as all geeks know it.

    So in the future i actually have to THINK while gaming? That sucks ;)

    Really, that's pretty cool. I wonder how easy it is to use.

    I presume someone's looking into applying this to people with spinal cord injuries.

    I think this would be extremely useful in RTS game genres.

    I wonder if your skill level when using this new device is affected by your intelligence LOL

    That would be cool to use in addition to a normal controller, so you can still (using FPS as an example) move around, aim and fire like normal, but could use it to switch weapons bring up a map and do less used activities like opening doors, all without having to move you hands from your mouse and WASD keys.

    Imagine having a sniper scope on and being able to zoom in just by thinking "what the hell is that over there?"

    is doesn't work like that "thinking what the hell is that over there"; alpha/beta brain waves are monitored, eye movement and facial muscles, those can then be read through the electrons and used for input on the PC;

    got a movie and more tech detail, price, caps, up here: http://www.madshrimps.be/gotoartik.php?articID=551

    it was, without a doubt, the coolest thing at Cebit:)

    i honestly dont like it, part of the appeal of games to me is hand-eye coordination and the reaction times, ill be sticking to keyboard and mouse thanks
