| | | Harry Potter mind software video game The Telegraph reports that mind control software has been developed by technology companies. Harry Potter is one of the games that will take advantage of this advancement. Quote:
One game, which is due to be in the shops in a few months, is based on the schoolboy wizard Harry Potter where players are able to lift boulders and throw thunderbolts simply by concentrating on making it happen.
Quote:
Emotiv of San Francisco, who have come up with the Harry Potter game, has developed a headset with 16 sensors it says allows players to control aspects of a game simply by thinking about them.

Wow, this is already a finished product? I thought this technology was still being tested and far from going commercial.
Mind control... has a nice ring to it, though.

Thats Cool.
You know what I want?
I would like to see a more Mature Harry Potter game (for some of the older fans) with something similar to Grand Theft auto going on. Where Harry is free to roam about London, on a broomstick, and on the night bus. And as you progress through the game he can apparate to and from Hogsmead and the burrows, and he does missions from each of the books. And you know how on Grand Theft you go to a safe house to change clothes and stuff? Well, Harry could have Number 4 Privet Drive, and change clothes (from muggle clothes to Hogwarts clothes there), and on Grand theft auto you could take the train..... hence The Hogwarts express.... man, Iam a mastermind.

Mind control software? That sounds shifty. As if I wasn't already obsessed with Potter....

I was ecstatic about this at first, and then I realised it would probably cost about 53000$ to buy.
And even if it only cost 700$, or something like that, I still wouldn't be able to afford it. :S

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
