I called that new BCI headset for gaming a total scam, then my buddy in Seattle let me try his for an hour.

That demo unit at the Seattle convention center last month changed my mind completely. The latency was under 10 milliseconds, which is basically nothing. I could feel the in-game textures just by thinking about touching them. It's not a scam, it's just tech that's way ahead of its time and most people haven't tried it. The price is insane, but the actual tech works.

@brooke71, did they let you try the texture demo with your eyes closed?

Okay the "feel the in-game textures just by thinking" part got me. I was totally with the original poster calling it a scam. Then I tried one at a friend's place last weekend. My brain can't unfeel that. It's real, it just costs more than my rent.
