Can you say Minority Report!?

The device is hand-shaped, so claim #21 makes me giggle.
I have a dirty mind.


Nice way for them to advance upon Nintendo' s idea. Now let' s hope they actually DO something with the patent this generation.

I love the power glove, it' s so bad.

Lmao! Please release it. I want the lulz.

That shit shuld work wonders with FPS, and RTS

It' s a gimmick that will wear off in 6 months. Pure fad I tells ya. Won' t last. Bring back the Atari 2600 joystick, that' s as advanced an interface as we will ever need.

How will this help with FPS and RTS? You know what FPS and RTS stand for right?

But... why?

No... really...

Why?

A certain ' G' word comes to mind,

however because its got sony written on it apparently it doesn' t apply

You know what FPS and RTS stand for right?

Well, i think so, First Person Shooters and Real Time Strategy right???

It does seem that rather than being a glove, it is something that sits in your palm and it is strapped to your fingers. Apparently we don' t like wearing gloves for gaming!

and item 0043 in the detailed description provides for even more childish giggling.

oh dear... well I needed a laugh. Nothing will come of this though - Sony are always doing loads of controller research - they even " robbed" (well beat me to them) some of my quality ideas allready! They will patent them as a matter of course regardless of how good it is.

I suppose this generation they will be looking to the future for the next big thing. This months Edge goes on about how we will have a controller revolution - personally I think that is rubbish... I mean, they told us in the 1960' s that steering wheels were old hat and would be replaced.. and almost 50 years later we are still using steering wheels! The reason I give you this reference is that because it was in the 1960' s that the first mouse and keyboard was produced!

it would be nice in games where where the minute details of hand position really matter.Stuff like golf, tennis, shooting free throws in basketball, etc.

Graphic adventures would kick ass.

they could do some stuff with it.

Thing is, that' s a lot of external information for any system to process effectively. Any lag would completely kill the immersion factor, so games would probably be really simple.

I dont like wearing gloves for gaming. Think about if you go over to your friends apartment, ready get a beat down with som Virtua Fighter 5, so you borrow one of his " gloves"

Then you think about sweaty bowling shoes!

It' d open a whole new world into cyber DJ' ing!

I was just making sure, because to me i just cant see what a glove will help with FPS and RTS

This will never be released.

Soooo... Wii sports?

Think of how many noobies would get pwned in onine FPS' that implemented this.

Realistically though, it' d never get used for that. Congress would have a seisure & all would be lost to the depths of the American political runaround.

pfft, without the 3d glasses this would never work.

Actually, I' ve got some.


It' s a set of old-tech virtual reality goggles with a set of headphones with a 10 foot lead. The VR set was no good anymore, so I ripped out the headphones & now have headphones I can traverse the room with.
