Wired has a cautionary article about the potential dangers of thought-controlled games. It appears that some scientists are concerned that such games could cause attention deficit disorder, but the main point I took away from the article is that I won’t be playing Bioshock with my mind anytime soon. Whatever. You just know that the military perfected this technology years ago and it’s sitting on a shelf in some gargantuan warehouse, right next to the desiccated remains of the Roswell aliens and a second-generation cold fusion generator. They’ll keep the technology secret for another ten years or so until they think we’re “ready” for it. Condescending bastards.
