i wanna see one of those things like they had in the time crysis arcade booths. kinda like a wiimote for a computer, but was actually shaped like the gun you were using in game, and everything you did in rl was mirred. that would be awesome

Wow, that's, um, unique...doesn't look like something I'd want to use but I'd love to see some reviews on it. I'd love a decent lightgun-esk input device for the computer along the lines of what martini was talking about though, something thats point and shoot.

the placement of some of the buttons seems awkward IMO (the scroll wheel), but it's a step in the right direction at least.

if someone built a cheap lightgun with some simple games and open source development tools for say 40 bucks id buy it in a heartbeat

That looks pretty slick, definitely would have to try a demo before even considering though. Good link.

guys, ive got this mouse... at first there seems to be no problem with it, but after a few hours of using it, it became apparent that my wrist is beginning to hurt where it touches the mousepad or table... normally when you use a mouse or a keyboard, your wrists are flat against the surface and you can keep working like that indefinitely, but on this mouse you put the edge of your wrist against the surface and support the weight of your hand and the mouse on that one spot... i think that bone is called 'pisiform' on http://www.assh.org/AM/Images/2007Patie ...
