No Pain, No Game
Have you ever had a hankering to play a computer game that allows you to inflict real pain on your opponent? Ever wondered how it would feel to shock, burn and lash your opponent into submission? Well, wonder no more. Two German designers have addressed this yawning gap in the gaming industry with a fiendish invention called, appropriately enough, the Painstation.
They got this from a James Bond Movie. It was in Never Say Never Again. It was a game where the two players faced each other and had a map between them, one player would try to zap the laserbeam before the other. While connected to electric shock the more you miss the more you hurt. Guess who won? Yep, the Martini drinker did. Shaken not stirred.
