I agree, the jumpsuits suggest there are still significant tweaks to make to the technology, but this is a delicious taster of the potential future of gaming!

While User_01 adjusts his tinfoil hat…

That does look rather cool, but how long would people want to play a Wii minigame for? Burnout was pretty awesome but unless the motion control gets developed further, I can see myself showing Natal off to friends for all of 20 mins, then reaching for a pad if I wanted to “really play” on Burnout.

To be honest, I seriously consider ALL of these Bio-mechanic/ Biometric “toys” to be spying devices that need to be *brought* into the home as toys. They just happen to be “toys” that use the *exact* technology (voice and face recognition) implemented by the DHS and FBI for security resources!

As a Business and Commodities Exchange student, I can say that modern strategies for reshaping and conditioning public behavior is conducted *NOT* through Orwellian government mandates, but through commerce and mainstream media/ public opinion.

The bad guys aren’t going to force you to do anything, they’re going to trick you into wanting to do it yourself!
