    This fully hands-free control system application is really cool. Well, there is a huge demand for innovative game applications. And even Forum Nokia is looking for such applications for its 2009 Calling all innovators contest.

    Sincerely WII did not make me mad, just because when I’m playing a game I just want to relax. Use my brain is enough. And I for real gamers the only Physical needed to be done is the movement of the fingers. Even we will prefer no movements. Really Great innovation in Gaming could be just play games if the mind, meaning controlling everything with just your thoughts.
