razor's edge Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I'd rather play something like Doom or Resident Evil with it... ...that would rock. Quote
The Damned Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Considering your average CS player only exercises his hands when playing, and his mouth when eating cheetos, I highly doubt they would be up for a game that involves actually walking, let alone sanding up. Quote

Tardigrade Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 I think Oblivion would play well with that. Think about EvE online with that thing, a chair with wheels and motors on the wheels that follows what your ship is doing on screen. Quote
Calpis Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I don't see any image there. Am I missing some inside joke or something? Quote
Tardigrade Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 If everyone's talking about something that you're not seeing in the first post, sometimes it pays off to mouse over the text. Quote
shpladoink Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 maybe the next model will have a cheeto dispenser and a chair inside Quote
OverCoat Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I think Oblivion would play well with that. It's like taking a 10 mile hike without actually going anywhere! Actually, maybe I should consider this thing I like hiking Quote
Cáidh Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 If everyone's talking about something that you're not seeing in the first post, sometimes it pays off to mouse over the text. We needs ta get that fix'd. Also, this thing looks poentially pretty awesome. Ladders would be somewhat awkward, though. Quote
Fire in the Hole Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Pong.Or Super Mario 64. It would probably require significantly more infrastructure to sustain 300-pound guys trying to triple jump. Quote
al3xand3r Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 It would probably require significantly more infrastructure to sustain 300-pound guys trying to triple jump. Imagine the 300lbs guys trying to do Mario's butt stomp. Quote
OverCoat Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Imagine 300-pound guys suing the company because they get stuck in the entry hole. killed it Quote
noTuX Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Oh great! Now I can get a full workout while playing a video game! Quote
Guy In Rubber Suit Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Oh great! Now I can get a full workout while playing a video game! Isn't that what the Wii is for? And yeah seriously, there needs to be a fix to make links a different color. I almost thought there was nothing there. Quote
yangfeili Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Some how I have a feeling that a guy using a plain old mouse and keyboard would completely destroy a guy using this thing on pretty much any game. Quote

Tardigrade Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 Some how I have a feeling that a guy using a plain old mouse and keyboard would completely destroy a guy using this thing on pretty much any game. That's why it would probably only be for single player games, or multiplayer with only those being used. Quote
noTuX Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Isn't that what the Wii is for?And yeah seriously, there needs to be a fix to make links a different color. I almost thought there was nothing there. Meh, but the Wii can only give an upper-body workout and you can also become an effective nunchauk user. Quote
FuriousFure Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Monkey ball! Hahahaha my GOD, man! are you insane? it would be a phobiacs nightmare, fear of inclosed spaces and heights!! but i'd love it! how bout FUSION FRENZY!!!!? fighting games? naw, forcefeed back is needed... collision detection would be a nightmare. but i totally like the idea. they should have a door instead of a hole so you can't break your leg running away from the zombies/aliens/ghosts (pac-man!!)/goblins(wow fan's stereotype turned into an athelete)/ nazis/ or anyother badguy. its like those nascar cars in malls. moving chasis and multiple screens simulating the track. cool in theory but not really an everyday thing.

Super-Duper Sombrero Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I had an idea like this when I was talking about virtual reality. I was ponder how to move, and a treadmill had crossed my mind. So I figured why not a giant sphere on a freely rotation axis? It would be like being in a ball mouse, but crazy. Also, there would have to be a custom-made game for it, as not much would truly capture the feeling. Quote
Secret Agent Man Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 That'd be pretty fun to play CS in, even though it would take much getting used to. Oh, and for those who didn't see the image: He linked to another web site to show the picture, but OCR's skin shows links as the same color as plain text. So here it is: Quote
