Cool idea, but it'd lead to lots of camping

They called it "sadistic torture," except, unless you strapped another person down to go through those shocks, it'd be masochistic.

Anyhow. WTF? Why would you want to get shocked while gaming?

I would actually get one of those. I would set it up so that in an RTS game like CoH, if an off-screen unit started getting hurt it would send a small shock, or if I got shot at from behind in BF2 it would send a small shock. Excellent way to get your attention.

Cool.

(The title led me to believe this was a FancyPollux getting electrocuted thread)

What do you think happens if you die in a game?

You respawn, and in your case die again.

Actually I think it would be fun to play single player games with this set to shock you when you die. Something like HL2.

I think it would be more fun to play against your friends in the same room, each using one of these controllers.

Yeah, why the fuck would you pay for this? You can just punch yourself in the face if you want to feel pain.

No not you, I was quoting your post to answer Ryan. Everyone else is a bunch of pussies.

Just imagine that thing malfunctioning and frying you alive before you can detach everything....

No thank you, my £100 would be better spent elsewhere.

If I had a spare £100 floating around I would buy it in a flash. I'm sure its only been made to shock you to a certain extent like electrocuting pens etc.

But as I do not £100 spare I will have to live without it

It would actually would keep me awake all night. Imagine what kind of twisted dreams you would have after all the shocks playing games for a few hours. O god this could also be a girls favorite toy (If you know what I mean)
