If taking a beating online isn’t enough to fulfill your violent needs, thenTN Gameshas a variety of gamer gear to punish you in person. The 3rd Space Gaming Vestbundle kitscome in black, camouflage and pink, and each comes with an air compressor, USB cable, power supply and two free PC games. With one of the included titles being the outdated but funCall of Duty 2, its $140 reduced price tag isn’t too unreasonable.
Gamers wearing the FPS Vest forcompatible gamesshould expect to feel the impact-generating device from eight different regions on the body, with ahelmetcoming out in 2009 that offers three additional pain zones. When you’re hit in the game, one of the eight compressed air pockets triggers a pneumatic air release for five pounds of impact force.Grimhas played it andconfirmsthat it doesn’t disappoint.
Eleven critical points is more than I was expecting the products to deliver, although I would imagine the blows to the head in the same area would grow more annoying than painful before too long. On the other hand, I was expecting to see more games currently compatible, but time should fix that. Not to mention the talented gamers out there can create game mods using the gear with the 3rd Space software.
If you want to demo their product, theysay you should try tocompare the experience to being struck by a roll of pennies dropped from a distance of six inches. It’s commendable to see some advancements beyond the ubiquitous rumble controllers, although for now I doubt most people are willing to suspend reality past the point of waving a Wiimote around. We’ll keep an eye on the price as well as the helmet’s release date and keep you updated. Until then, we’ll file this under the “Idiot asking for a hilarious lawsuit” file.
I’ll spare you an official Game Debate to theDeathfor this topic, since it wouldn’t send the right message to the media about this product, but what do you think? Will you buy it? Or would you in the near future?
