Wait, does she lack a left thumb or does she play the game without it?

She has a left thumb. It does not move at all, so she plays with her index finger on the thumb stick, pinky on the trigger.
Hey, the comic seems to be updating kind of regularly. Maybe we should vote to spread the word.

Well, consider this.

They've made it so you can move the mouse cursor with your mind... if they hook your brain up to the computer.

How far could gaming go with that? It could be like a second screen full of buttons to click to do different things, leaving the GUI unhampered...

Fuck buttons, a sufficiantly advanced brain-game hookup could be limited only by programming space and player memory.

Nonsense, the human mind is perfectly compatible with DDR2 memory, just mind the head splitting feeling as we stick it in...

Don't worry, if the Bison ever take over the midlands Godzilla will take care of them. Just like he did with Bambi.

Until it's used to take control of people's minds.

On a seperate note, I'm investing quite a bit of money in this technology.

But... it's the in betweeny steps that would loose people. She loves the Wii, but I'm sure people with weak arms attached to good fingers hate it. Likewise taking info out of the GUI and making it audio probably upsets deaf people... but some blind people can play fighting games better than me by sound. I get confused with 10 moves to choose from, fingers ain't the bottleneck. It's that I can't know what the difference between a jab and punch is without feeling my body's weight in it.

Total immersion means leaving out people who are missing something. Of course, once we can hook our brains up to a video game irregardless of sensory organs, no reason not to hook our brains up to cameras and microphones anyways, so that would be good too.

Heh. I can still hear some people yelling "I can use that! I am using an iron lung! Sue, sue!"

Beyond using the touch screen to switch weapons I see no good use for it.

No, just predicting either overuse of the touch screen.

It should be used as just a screen for the most part. Duh.

I think switching weapons without going into the menu is probably the best use for it, but that might just be me.

Yes, I pointed that out before. That or a map.

The way I'd see it you'd press the biometal switch button and it'd switch from being a map or whatever the biometal uses to a screen with all your biometals(instead of the ring system).

I played in the Supreme Commander Beta, and despite all the hype and all my former love, I was crushed. Massive dissapointment and me turning my back on the game followed.

Six months pass, and the game goes gold and releases a demo. Despite my fears, it gets nothing but praise, and looks incredible, so I dive back in.

Six months makes all the difference in the world. The game is incredible now, and as soon as a copy hits stands it's mine.

Its sad how they would rather make games for portable systems than make good/long/fun games for consoles since they found out MM sucks in 3D.... at least the way the implemented it.

Um... what's the issue that prevents the games on portable systems from being good/long/fun?
