this is so gonna be used by the military behind our backs! just keep that in mind

[ShannonTheIdol]

@smukase Your a complete diot. It reads signals and uses it to move in 6 different ways...

Do your research, the mind hasn't been graphed out yet, so they couldn't do shit.

People are really stupid sometimes.

[smukase]

@ShannonTheIdol the only research i need to do is step out of my imaginary little box, open my eyes and know what i need to know, something that you clearly have never done. do u really think smth this interesting can just be distributed among the general public without the government having their share? what an ignorant way of thinking. i correct myself, they have already been (trying) using this long ago. lol another bigot old fart trying to educate me with bullshit. please dun waste my time

[ShannonTheIdol]

@smukase Wow, open my eyes you say, then you go and write "lol another bigot old fart trying to educate me with bullshit. please dun waste my time"

I am sorry, did I post bigoted material, if so please point out such "bigot" material.

Since you don't know how to structure a sentence beyond the capacity of a pre-pubescent child, I will assume you know nothing of this technology, and are not worth the time of anyone.

You sir, are a idiot.

I won't try to (and I quote) "educate me", anymore.

[smukase]

@ShannonTheIdol damn it must be really lonely there if u have to waste your time with a pre-pubescent "girl" then lol. u clearly don't tolerate other people's opinions because i am not interested in how the technology works because what s more interesting is what it cud possibly be used for. the likes of u cud never understand what i mean so like i said, stop wastin my time. pliz dun make this a back and forth thing if u r the so-called adult here. good riddance and good day to you old man

[xxFluffywuffakinsxx]

wow this BLOWS for kids with ADD

[ethicks00]

@xxFluffywuffakinsxx

one of the features of the emotive or epoc (w/e you want to call it) is to help those kinds of kids concentrate.

[thatlittleweirdkid]

and hear it is, 2009, and they're still not being widely sold (if they're being sold at all). so much for "in 2008... less than a PS3"

[firearrow2000]

If its not delayed again, summer 2009 is the expected release date. And it is expected to be 300$. btw xxFluffywuffakinsxx I HAVE ADD and take medication and I can still easily control my thoughts. It is more in boring situations (like school) that I get off track, so even kids with ADD, ADHD, OCD, and other things similar to those can probably use this device (no, I do not have ADHD, I just listed it)

[jonon07]

someone is gonna make a "game" for this that checks for tumors....

[sawsaw16]

omg wtf is wrong with u its a console not a controller with a game u dipshit

[angelicawalker123]

No you plug a usb wireless thing that looks like a flash drive into you pc and you play the games on there, but there are a whole bunch of games so you can call it a console i guess, but really it just goes on your computer.

[firearrow2000]

True, but programmers with Linux computers can legally alter it to be used for other devices, such as TV. You may soon plug it into your ps3. Who knows?

[KevinLounsberry]

You are a rude stupid idiot, sawsaw, it's not a console, it can be used with a PC (probably consoles too). and it IS a controller.

[sawsaw16]

u r wtf is wrong with u it is just like a console a controller is something entirly else and the whole fact that that it is done with ur mind eliminates the controller word...like striked out so stfu

[KevinLounsberry]

IT CAN PLUG IN TO A NORMAL COMPUTER USB PORT, HOW COULD IT BE A CONSOLE. AND YOU CAN BIND KEYS TO THOUGHTS AND CONTROL GAMES WITH YOUR THOUGHTS, HOW IS IT NOT A CONTROLLER.

Maybe we just aren't on the same page at all. Please define the word "console" and the word "controller" in a context relevant to this topic according to your understanding of these words.

[WarForFaith]

the way i understand the mechanism is that it is a controller. . . it Controls,,, games. not using your hands doesnt mean its not being controled. would you call a racing game with pedals not a controller because you use your feet ? the games for it seem to be PC based which is software making the head set hardware , but the games do not run off of emotiv so its a controller of games

[MrLegendman3]

@KevinLounsberry It was meant to be used for PC's it has a SDK for the pc.

[songokuemumania]

if it works only with your mind .... why do you have to move your hands to play ?

[gdanon]

u don't. it depends on ur conetration level.

it's like the force on star wars :D

ur will power needs to be strong. lol

[zzzspawn]

its, easier to focus on lifting something with your mind, if you are simulating a lift with your hands :P and when you throw something at the side your mind sort of focuses on that side xD...

[DarkGh0st47]

Probably also makes it more fun, lol. But yes, it's all about the users ability to focus.

[zzzspawn]

:P true :D

[firearrow2000]

Yeah, there is one video where a guy just sits there with his hands in his lap and controls the game.

[KevinLounsberry]

how do you think you make your hands move?

you make them move with your mind

[x2k3MaxPayne]

is this coming also for xbox 360?
