Take a look at this video:



This goes out to all those who don't care for playing games in the first person mode. Now you don't have to even live life in first person mode! ;)

You also get to wear puffy pants and a spiked plastic wig! Hooray! (Not really)

Here's the article it came from. Some of the comments there are amusing like:

You could totally get kicked in the nuts by an midget and never see it coming


Note: In order for suit to operate properly, you must walk extremely exaggerated and observe surroundings every few steps.

And..
Here's a spin off:
Mount cameras around an area, park, city street, whatever. Then put on the video mask thing and walk around using only the cameras, like in Resident Evil

Yeah and then in order to turn you have to stop and stand up straight and turn in place like a tank... ;)

Today I was out doing a few errands and I went ahead and stopped by the CompUSA to check things out since I haven't been there in a while. Well first of all I wanted to see if they where still open because I heard they where closing quite a few of those CompUSA stores.
A main complaint of mine is that they have a lot of computers there setup for demonstration but hardly any software on them for you to try out to see how good the computers are. I guess they might not want people hanging out too much messing around with the computers but why have them if you can't really try them out. That's a problem on the Mac area they have the Macs setup but no software that I can try out which shows me how much faster they are than my current Mac. I would especially like to see how much better games run on those new Macs than on my current one first hand.

This is especially ridiculous in the Games For Windows section where they have one computer setup there next to the games but they have no games on it! It's no use to have a computer setup next to the games for windows section if it has no games for people to try out. They should have the most popular games setup on that computer with some kind of games kiosk shell so people can try out the latest games on the PC. Or at least have the games installed and have shortcuts to them on the desktop.

Also I don't like them constantly asking you if you need help. I know it's a part of their job description and some people may need for them to ask them before they can get help but I kind of think that they should just be around for in case someone needs help rather than hounding people asking if they need help. But I know that they are pressured by their managers to sell sell sell and go after the customer and sell. I should go into stores wearing a sign saying... "If I need your help I'll ask for it". ;)
