This brain-controlled robotic stuff - they always keep talking about using these things for people in wheelchairs, or people with prostetic arms. Seriously, you REALLY think that they've got this team of graduate students down there that are going "Gee I can't wait to help people in wheelchairs!"? Hell no! I'd graft a machine gun onto my left arm and begin blowing the ^^ out of things, then hop into my bulletproof Ferarri that I drive and fire rocket launchers with my mind until I fly into space where an orbiting top secret research lab will surgically remove my head and attach it to a massive robot, then return me to earth where I'll destroy the capital of earth (Washington D.C.) and force everyone to work in my forced labor camps where they will create my army of immortal atomic mutants!

<_<  uhm...  old?  i mean...really old?  like...  atari build mind controllers back in 1983 for their atari 2600 console?  this thing was called mindlink, and was a product of an medical equipment manufacturer adopted by atari...(yeah, atari wanted to jump into the medical equipmet business - Atari Bionics Medical Systems)  
uhm.. mindlink was kinda expensive to produce, and you needed some training to use it (headaches are us!) . atari was almost bancrupt to this time, so they got buyed by a different company and closed their factory in el-paso. atari took mindlink away from the market again because some peoples reported about headache when using it (others dont even buyed it because they feared braindamage- lol kinda true), and delivered the remaining units ,different ptototypes, and modules on 14 trucks into the new-mexican dessert somewhere at alomorgordo, where bulldozers made them flat..  there are just some of them still around, very rare stuff.  there are even TWO(!) games for it ..mind maze, and bionic breakthrough.

Freaky stuff. But yeah, who cares about wheelchairs? I want to know I can use this to get 1337 57475 in CS, d00d!

I don't even need the mind thing, just give me one of those retina trackers to sit on top of my monitor and aim my gun at whatever I'm looking at :p uber-l33t aim skillz without hax!

But rather confusing if it's slightly out of alignment and you start chasing your cursor with your eyes.
