Tan Le: A headset that reads your brainwaves

http://www.ted.com Tan Le's astonishing new computer interface reads its user's brainwaves, making it possible to control virtual objects, and even physical electronics, with mere thoughts (and a little concentration). She demos the headset, and talks about its far-reaching applications.

5)Decided to buy Final Fantasy XIV as it's a console based mmorpg

[Isaiah Williams]

The next big step is fooling our sense of touch, smell, and taste. When those are honed, you'll never see my fat ass outside of my bedroom ever again.

[hauptmann25]

No one really cares about SAO what I want is this on the same technology level as the NerveGear! SAO as a game itself would be rather mediocre if you ask me.

[Drazil Dragon]

they need to get around to where someone could be a cyborg

and with this option of that..anyone could be anything ^.-.^
