Ever wanted a game character to do what your thinking rather then what buttons your pressing? Well you might get the chance thanks to Square-Enix and NeuroSky, who will be showing a mind control game demo this Thursday(October 9th) and Friday (October 10th) at the Tokyo Game Show.
The software for the demo was created by Square-Enix and runs on a PC with the player wearing a Mindset headset, created by NeuroSky, that monitors a players relaxation and concentration.
So far only a screen shot of the game in action has been released, but once the we get some details on how it plays we will let you know.

Mind control? I suppose that one-ups Nintendo’s interface.
It’s a cool idea. I see this as the video game equivalent of the concept car found at Auto Shows. A look at what the future may be for video game design & control.
Colour me interested.
Certainly a cool idea.
From the image it looks like your concentration will control the intensity of your attack.
