   New Toy!

M: (yawns) WHA?! (sees a giant crate in the middle of the hall) What the heck is this?
A: (pokes his head around the corner) Huh? IT’S HERE! IT’S FINALLY HERE!!
M: What’s here?
A: Only the greatest thing in electronic entertainment! (tries to open the crate) Uhn! Urg! Gaaaaarr!!..............Ozz, get a crowbar.

12 minutes later:

M: What in the world is it?
A: This, oh lowly mortals, is the Game Lab 5000. It plays any videogame ever made. Everything from Atari to X-Box.
M: Wow. Let’s try it out! Where are the controllers?
A: There are none.
M: What?!
A: The Game Lab doesn’t just play any videogame, Makoto-san. It puts you in them!
M: You mean like VR?
A: Exactly! You just sit in one of these chairs here. (sits)
M: (sits) Hmm. Nice.
A: Yeah. I chose black leather. Next, you put on one of these headbands. They read your brainwaves, interpreting them into character actions. And simultaneously, they send information into your synapses, simulating the look and feel of the game. The result: full virtual emersion.
M: Whoa.
A: Basically, it’s like Tron meets The Matrix. The only downside is that it doesn’t have online play.
M: Let’s heat it up! I wanna try Resident Evil!
A: It’s my omni-console and I wanna play F-Zero!
M: Your racing games stink!
A: You’re only saying that cause I beat your ass every time. :p
M: Shut up! How about Soul Caliber?
A: I’m not a big fan of fighting games.
M: That’s cause you suck at them. :p
A: HEY! Well what about Zelda?
M: That’s a single player game. Let’s play DOA Volleyball.
A: OK.
M: HA! Letch alert!
A: SHUT UP!

For those of you who are wondering if this is the BIG thing I was talking about, it isn’t. Even though the Game Lab does take up half the living room. What’s coming up is much much MUCH bigger than this! So big I might not be able to contain it in one site!
