TV Show Features PS3 Controller Operated Virtual Reality Prototype

Ripten Writes: One of the latest episodes of FOX’s “Lie to Me” features a pretty comical (and totally inaccurate) representation of video games. Imagine that.

The situation involved a soldier suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) after returning from Iraq. In an effort to “get to the root of the problem” Dr. Lightman and his team make use of some new “virtual reality” equipment said to have been developed via a grant provided by the Department of Defense. Sounds complicated, high tech, and expensive!

those graphics were lame lol

what was he even controlling?

FrankDaTank5718d ago

exactly. he was waving it around like a rag doll. not sure about you but i actually like to game with both hands on the controller.

Drjft5718d ago

Little do we know, he's actually MLG in the making.

:rollseyes:

greeneggsnsam5718d ago

Unless he was playing a Kinect game somehow!

Hideo_Kojima5718d ago

Virtual reality is awesome though... I wish Sony MS or Ninty pick up on this before the next gen.

Donny5718d ago

DAMN, thats insane, just insane man! like whoah dude!, no seriously....its cool.

Blacktric5718d ago

I f*cking love Tim Roth but wtf is this? They could've give him a stick or something and it wouldn't be as ridiculous as this. I don't understand. That is a VR machine and it seems he can move the character by his thoughts. But why is he holding a controller if he doesn't need it for anything?

ALFAxD_CENTAURO5718d ago

The Show is amazing, but the this scene is weird.

FrankDaTank5718d ago

yeah i do watch the show but this just seems like the people who thought this up haven't played a video game since atari.

I love this show!

I love when they show the subtle signs of people lying and actually match them up with real people or celebrities who showed the same sign. haha

mmmj5718d ago

I love Lie To Me, but wasn't this on quite a while ago?

Also, so what that he's holding a PS3 controller? This is the largest piece of non-news I've seen recently. Stupid >.>
It's a TV show, it's not like it's actually running on a PS3.

Exclusive Games to Buy for Your New PS3

3xG says: "With so many titles to choose from its hard to pick just a handful to accompany your new console. Below we have comprised a mixed genre list of both retail and downloadable games for your playing pleasure."

GWAVE5694d ago

A great list, full of variety. I would have taken out some of their choices to find room for Valkyria Chronicles and Killzone 2, but hey, you can't have everything.

Biggest5694d ago

Why are those guys responding to an hour old troll account?

I would replace Resistance 1 with 2, and definitely find a place for Killzone 2. At least an honorable mention. But unless you're going to list them all. . . Damn! And what about Heavy Rain?

HydraxFFx5694d ago

This article is about games you can buy and download on PSN store.

Biggest5694d ago

This article has two distinct lists. The first list is downloadable titles which come from PSN. The second list is retail titles that come from retail stores.

MrAwesome5694d ago

PS3 is the king of exclusives (no fanboism)

fucadastates5694d ago

Valkyria Chronicles thats epic

Persistantthug5694d ago

VALKYRIA CHONRICLES in place of ModNation Racers.

ModNation RAcers is fun, but Valkyria Chonicles is a near masterpiece.

TEFL0N_D0N_815694d ago

Umm.. don't buy Haze, and don't buy Lair. The rest should be good.

fucadastates5694d ago

lair with normal controlles is great. what about the gameplay, narrativ and graphics (æstetiske) yont you like.

haze tho suck

MexicanAppleThief5694d ago

I highly recommend Valkyria Chronicles to anyone with an 'open' taste in games. Very underrated but an absolute gem, no trophies though. :(

PickAShoe5694d ago

that game needs some trophy loving

Xbox 360 vs. PS3 = Pepsi vs. Coke for gamers

»PS3 or Xbox 360?« is not the only question of principle in the whole games industry. At the moment it is the »Pepsi or Coke« question for gamers, Videogameszone thinks.

if you prefer the ps3 good for you
if you prefer the xbox 360 good for you

edhe5694d ago

Pff, nube - should be closing the tab!

But seriously that site is trash, absolute mince - sack the approvers!

mikeslemonade5694d ago

In this case PS3 would be the coke and 360 is the pepsi. Most kids like pepsi better. Coke has been around longer.

darthv725694d ago (Edited 5694d ago )

Mike, what happened to coke when they tried to reinvent themselves with new coke?

You may be on to something. PS3 is like the new coke. Messed with the formula that was tried and true and then realized shortly after they had to scrap it and go back to what made coke...COKE.

Sony messed with the ps3 formula and then realized they had to go back to what made the PS brand so traditional. Concentrating on the games instead of trying to be all snazzy like 360 does with everything BUT games.

I like both (Pepsi/Coke) and it just happens that coke is more supported throughout the world where pepsi is really big in the US.

But I like Sprite.
Damn, I'm always left out.

Downtown boogey5694d ago

It's not like you didn't deserve to be, you freak!!

BeaArthur5694d ago

Technically Sprite is a coke brand. Maybe that means you just like arcade games.

WhatARump5694d ago

I dunno I don't really care either way about pepsi/coke or ps3/xbox360

Downtown boogey5694d ago

Pepsi or Coke... Whatever.
PS3 or 360... Might taste the same but sure as hell aren't the same thing!!

WhatARump5694d ago

I wasn't talking about literal taste but rather personal preference :)

bjornbear5694d ago

depends on my mood.

however, if we were talking consoles, I can only afford one pepsi or one coke, and atm im in the mood for coke, so here's my 2 cents

morkendo5694d ago

to say i like ps3,i like 360?
like Rodney King would say : CANT WE ALL GET-ALONG
and just GAME ON!! for peep sake.

i prefer the PS3 cuz it's beast. i always had a 360 but it broke... but i'm picking up the 4GB console today.

HeroXIV5694d ago

Coca Cola just tastes better than pepsi. Pepsi has a weird after taste and the carbonatedness (lol) is too low. Gets flat quicker than coke.

Projekt7tuning5694d ago (Edited 5694d ago )

Yea coke burns.....Oh, OH!.... Were talking about the drinks. That's embarrassing.

Umbrella Corp5694d ago (Edited 5694d ago )

wanna get high?

ZombieAutopsy5694d ago

Coke doesn't burn so I'd stop doing the shit you're getting it's most likely mixd with something.....or just roll a 151 (at least that's what I think they where called).

Projekt7tuning5694d ago

Guys, we forgot about Captain and Coke.
Shame on us.

ZombieAutopsy5694d ago

Pepsi taste like flat coke to me but in the end it's all about Lost energy drinks.

Downtown boogey5694d ago

It's true though that Pepsi DOES get flat faster.

DA_SHREDDER5694d ago

Pepsi does get flat faster, but it taste way better than coke when its just opened

Not really an accurate analogy, suggesting there's no significant difference is silly. Then again this is another crappy .de article, so what did I expect.

hennessey865694d ago
