Kane99 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Do you ever think we'll get to a point where video games can be played inside of your head? I believe we'll get somewhere at some point, where we can utilize our brains a lot more, maybe even to the point of recording our thoughts and ideas. Do you think we'll ever get to the point where games can be played inside of our brain somehow? Maybe I'm thinking too futuristic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane99 Posted December 23, 2020 Author Share Posted December 23, 2020 Yes and no. Just anything in the future where your brain can control the game. If it be via electrodes that's cool too. I sadly don't think we'll see anything like it in our lifetime, but maybe we'll see it at some point. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I got to thinking about that. I can’t think of a way for it to be possible to see or hear the thoughts in a brain and relay it on a computer screen. I think it is possible to mentally press buttons on a controller or pad wired to your brain, but to look at the screen of a game and mentally move the character w/o any sort of buttons connected to the brain is beyond reasoning that I can think of. And if we could, then forget about mentally playing a game, at that point we could read the minds of animals and other humans. I can see how we could cause the brain to make movements, create any function the brain does from a panel somewhere else, but to process an image in a person's mind onto a screen and vice versa instantaneously to play a game would be capable of mind reading too.

If I'm not mistaken, I think he means playing a game so many times to the point you could play the entire game blindfolded because you remember most things in-game. Personally, I could to an extent say I can do that with Skyrim as I've beaten it 100s of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I think it's closer than we know. Elon Musk's Neuralink has a wireless implant in a monkey's skull to play video games with its mind.

Kane99 Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 We might be getting closer to this than I thought. From an article titled: Elon Musk says Neuralink implanted a chip in a monkey's brain, and now he 'can play video games using his mind' - From Insider If true, this is pretty cool. But even so, I think seeing a monkey playing video games in itself is cool. I'd love to see one play with a controller and see how well they can do. But this is a step up, to be able to play with your mind, that would be cool. Not sure I'd want to instal a chip in my brain to play games. I guess it would have to be 99% successful in order for me to get a chip in my brain. What would you guys do? Would you instal a chip in your brain to control games with your brain? There's also an interview below if that is of interest to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that personally I'd process the game play in my head first before actually playing it. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon_skeith Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I'll pass on this, got enough going on in my head right now 😛 If it were to happen, I'd say in the next... 50 years? Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 If we ever start having a population of cyborgs, then a lot of people will play games in their heads. The rich will get all fancy like they do and have all kinds of brain implants. Many times their dreams will be upgrades while they sleep. They will play MMO in their heads against other rich tyrants and plot on taking over the world as games become real life. Then AI takes over. Most of the population will have some sort of mechanics in their bodies and their own arm will beat them. Their legs will force them into the water to drown. Their jaws refuse them food. Their metal plates in their head began crushing their skulls. Their eyes eject. Their hearts toy with them by rapidly beating or skipping 10 beats. All the while, doctors laugh because they knew this would happen. They just wanted your money. And they left a special implant in every model made. That is to obey the doctor's command.

Then it's definitely going to get to the point where human beings are getting hacked like real. I don't even want to think about it 😖. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
