Time to start practicing, I guess...
*Whips out Metallica CD*
That is pretty sweet. Eye Of The Tiger may not be the most headbangy song ever but it's a good demo
This is a retarded idea, and very bad for your neck. I also suspect that the wig will get dirty and nasty very quickly (although it will surely be machine washable).
I would think that the hairs of the wig would just get in the way of those who already have headbanger hair. Maybe a strap of some sorts or a different way of placing the motion sensor on the head ? Also, I can see neck sprain and whiplash being developed because of this...
If the hair is machine washable (which it surely will be) the actual circuitry will be removable, and there you'll have your headband (although probably not a very comfortable one).
Until I hear of neural interfaces, the future of gaming is not here yet...
yeah but a neural link will let you just think about headbanging, that's not Metal damnit!

Listen here, I am an old school headbanger and I know what metal is damnit!! XD
Besides, a neural link will do more than just allow you to play one game...imagine mind-surfing the net without all the interference of the clunky hardware we have now.

Yeah but for every up there is a down. You may have an experiential approach to surfing the net but you'd also get the experiential spam, imagine dozens of people running up to you in the street and trying to sell you viagra, domain names or offer you a "free" nintendo wii.
Sure you'd get a vastly improved feedback experience from a game but EA would install securom in your brain and when their servers go down, your brain will shut down and the only things you'll be able to do is be a reality tv contestant

Neural. Interface. Rickroll. The horror....
Also make sure you switch from Neural-IE to Neural-Firefox, because the last thing you want is for your browser to get hijacked.

What, no Neural-Opera??? For shame!
@Aliasalpha - There isn't much left in my brain so if it did get shutdown, there wouldn't be much of a difference. I might drool a little more than normal but that would be about it.
it's only a matter of time before we see sexual adapters for console games, it already exists for pc games.
That video was hilariously awesome.

I'm not sure I believe you, I demand a link to a product page so I can... er... verify your claim.
I can easily imagine a combination of that fleshlight thing and a wiimote. The japanese snogging games would be an ideal use for it, that or Tentacle Rapist: The Hentai "Action" Game
