its cool but did you notice how slow it was when the actual crosshairs were brought up? youd be dead before you could move the gun over a target

Last thing you want to do after a hard day's work. hahaha

Unless they can tweak it to to move at the same speed as a person with a mouse, it's pretty much useless online. I do have to say that I love the idea behind it and the way you control it.

Always good to see new inventions in this market; they can indirectly help to influence unorthodox peripherals that would actually be worthwhile; which this thing is not.

This is like force feedback on your forearms. Ok great, but that's extremely niche. It'd be ok for a boxing/fighting game, maybe gun recoil... though what other venue would it actually make sense in?

Now if they made forearm/hand/wrist feedback that could be used in conjunction with traditional peripherals(with that sole purpose of being feedback oriented), then that would be ok.

It's oddness outweighs it's relevance.
