Pussy shit, I'm in it for the realism..




The first one would make a much better flight simulator or figure out a bike chassis to put it on but too much motion for a car game, besides, with the screen directly in front of you at all times, it takes some of the driving realism away. You gotta look around.

I thought about this and it turns out it's ingenious.

It uses your weight to simulate g forces incurred in the car and keeping the screen directly in front of you makes you think you are on a level plane. This thing would be mind blowing in a completely dark room which it was probably designed to do but then we couldn't see it in the video.

I take it back, I want one, tomorrow.
