The future of gaming is all in the mind

"LONDON, England (CNN) -- Be excited, but be scared. A world of mind-blowing possibilities is suddenly being thrust upon the world of video gaming."

but I would be worried about people accessing my brain. What if you "convince" people to cause crimes on your behalf? How would you tell the difference between their own thoughts and implanted thoughts?

I'm sure their will be a lot of trust with this kind of system if it really takes off, if big enough it will get heavy control and monitoring for sure.

chaosatom5720d ago

They will find lots of use for it.

Why sell it to Sony? They are already working on the next step. They already have it patented since 2003 for a matrix like gaming device with ultrasounds. I doubt its close to done yet though.

wrshredder5719d ago

It needs to be precise. Since, this reacts to brain activity. What will happen to someone's character when they are on hallucinogens, narcotics and stimulants?

Personally I believe the future of gaming is up the @ss. For total control we will have one stick shoved up the @ss, one in the mouth and one in each hand. This way we will be able to do rough movements with our anus, more precise moves by stimulating the mouth stick with our tongue and also use our hands for action moves, like jerking...a key.

The future is up our @ss. (Yes it's stolen from that South Park episode)

Sarah Bond dodges questions on Xbox studio closures

While on stage with Dina Bass at The Bloomberg Technology Summit the President of Xbox, Sarah Bond, was asked about the Xbox studio closures of Arkane Austin, Tango Gameworks, Alpha Dog, and Roundhouse Studios

Of course she did. She's part of the problem and will just tow the company line.

Bloomberg’s Dina Bass could barely read her scripted question without looking at her notes, whilst Sarah Bond who WAS expecting the question spoke without saying anything of substance or answering the question in any meaningful way. Clearly she’s had the same expert PR training as Phil, but this avoidance was disrespectful. In time the short-sighted decision to shut down Tango Gameworks will be seen as of the most notorious examples why Phil Spencer messed up his tenure in charge of Xbox. That’s a fully built out talented team that could’ve been put to work on any project.

Additionally, Phil Spencer should not be using Sarah Bond as a patsy for his mistakes- he should be answering that question.

Yikes you don't help Sarah 😬 making a problem worse

Christopher2m ago

She's playing her role. There's absolutely nothing any of them can say other than the truth, this is about profit margins and not quality, so they just don't answer anything and wait for gamers to forget.

I always wondered why xbox had multiple leaders with similar titles like Phil Spencer, Matt Booty, and Sarah Bond, like, how many heads do you actually need?

Seems to me it would be more cost efficient to cut 2 of them instead of all those studios.
