DiRo Lab: "And that's what it felt like to play the Kiss Controller. It was hard; it was an interface I'd never tried before; I didn't have the hang of it, and it was frustrating! Add to that the fact that the entire audience is watching and telling me, "go left! GO LEFT!!" and you have an experience which is pretty much the opposite of romantic!"
‘kiss controller’ uses the act of kissing as a sensory input for video games, providing an unconventional alternative to the wii remote, playstation move and kinect.
This is just plain creepy. And what happens if you've not got a GF to hand. Do you grab your mom or sister?
That's a rhetorical question btw.
Whatever happened to the days of just sitting down with a normal game controller and playing a game lol.
DIYGamer: "We previewed a lot, dare I say a butt-load, of games at IndieCade last month. Playing fantastically weird indies wasn’t the only thing to do though, there was also a lot of discussion going on. We were able to stop by a couple of the panels going on throughout the festival with camera in tow, and are please to be able to pass them along here.
Below are a trio of videos that make up this year’s Well-Played Session II Panel, which included Phil Fish and Hye Yeon Nam going over various development aspects of their respective titles Fez and Kiss Controller."
Here is Play This Thing's demonstration of the Kiss Controller, a unique game controller designed by Hye Yeon Nam and Sam Mendenhall. One player wears a headset that holds the left and right sensor near the wearer’s lips while the other player attaches a magnet to the his or her tongue with a denture adhesive. When they kiss, moving the tongue and magnet left and right registers to the sensors and steers a racecar.
Wrong in almost every way. Just look at the misery on that girl's face. Made my day.
That was a kiss like choking someone to death is a loving embrace. She looked like she was being molested more than anything else.
While it is pretty stupid, this video is a more accurate demonstration.

In more simple words, from what I understand, you just move your tongues in the appropriate direction, and you are moving in the game. Not sure how he lets go of the ball though.
Now my GF can play video games with me and not bitch!
What are you talking about this is lame?!
This is clearly the future of keeping partners happy while indulging in gaming.
That or I could just tell her to F___ off.
