They have been doing a lot of experiments with things like this. They have been able to get simple things to happen like moving a mouse cursor around and "clicking" the mouse via thought. So this is probably all that this thing does. So, whatever you could do with simple mouse movement and a two button mouse is probably all you could get out of this thing at the moment.

ha. lol...

I hope it's come alot further than this. Well, I'm sure the military has come unimaginably further than this, but the public hasn't

BTW - Do you guys see the "spiky" looking things sticking inward toward where they head would be? They look like they would be quite uncomfortable pressing against your head after a short period of wearing the device.

I've seen the exact same thing for controlling an electrical wheelchair today on youtube, lost the link though,

Looks like would give me a headache,
this would be really good for people unable to use their arms.

Mind you, it could be some mind control thing....

"If you need 2 hours of practise just to not walk in rapid cycles the game will not be much of fun."

Damocles, I disagree. I think it would be fun to try and make your guy run around in circles ...

The device looks very interesting indeed, kinda scares me though... I had no idea technology was that far, and I didn't think we knew this much about the human mind.
When will those things start controlling us?
technophobia...:P

Maybe April 1 ?

"...naturally produced by the brain to detect player thoughts, feelings and expression..."

I suppose it is a joke
Can modern technology really achieve something like that ? I dont think so

Everything happening in our brains are electric shocks. To gain outside information out of them is possible, but hard.

ok in principle yes, but if such device really works there are thousand more important application than a game
