Korean Company creates anti-video game tech

[CptStern]

boy this is just too crazy to comtemplate:

Korean venture start-up Xtive has developed a sound sequence that they say can subliminally cause gamers to stop playing. An inaudible sound sequence that is transmitted 10,000 to 20,000 times a second is their solution to the growing problem of game corruption in Korea, where 10 to 20 percent of teens are considered treatment-level web addicts

i thought fear of public flogging/being sent to the "Re-education" centre was incentive enough to not play video games ...at least it seems to work for Numbers who's been absent due to his long stint of "deprogramming" at the local Re-education centre

Experiences tell us kids or adolescents simply don't stop playing games when faced with forceful measures. Such attempts can also cause many side effects,'' (Xtive president) Yun said. "But our newly developed sound sequence tells them to stop playing on their own. We think this can make a real difference in the war against obsessive game play.''

people are crazy in korea? yay for individual freedom, nay to government enforced insanity

`We can easily change the messages. In this sense, the potential for this technology is exponential,??

I love how the dude in the pic is playing Starcraft.

 

[tehsolace]

Heres a gist of how things will go:

"Stop playing games. Stop playing games. Stop playing games.... Pay the government alot of money. Pay the government alot of money. Pay the gover..."

I was like "Haha, I bet it's starcraft..."
*Look at picture*
*rofl insues*

I do find it funny how Korea thinks they have created a light version of mind control. How long before USA decides it's a threat to us?

 

[Naudian]

I'm gonna laugh when they try it out and it does shit all

 

[Flyingdebris]

nobody tell jack thompson about this!

If you would stop shooting your wad on the joystick....

 

[MiccyNarc]

GET TO THE CHOPPA!

This is what too much starcraft gets you...kekekekkeekkeeke

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

If you would stop shooting your wad on the joystick....

Shut uuuup. You did it last time.

But then again so have I. That's not the point though. The point is we have to get Numbas out. NOW GEET TO DA BOAT!

STFU guy you raped the ****ing joystick.

Actually it was your banana but I still blame you.

Considering the slipperiness of a banana, is its semen still sticky?

 

[Jintor]

Wtf, this is like monsters made of fire inventing ways to douse themselves in water, thus killing themselves, then selling it to other monsters made of fire.

 

[Darkside55]

I'm actually all for this. Koreans are obsessive with their games.

TOO obsessive.

This could potentially stop a lot of internet cafe-related deaths. If a person can't force themself to get up off the game long enough to EAT AND SLEEP, then by all means, subliminal message away.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

But NUMBAS IS THERE! You want him to suffer?

 

[15357]

I haven't played games in about 2 months or so, so meh.

Besides, I can just turn the speakers off.


But I can see this having great effect for educational uses. *evil laugh*

*chants*

OBEY. THE. STATE. SERVE. THE. FATHERLAND.

 

[Jintor]

Imagine a boot grinding a human face, Numbers... forever.

 

[15357]

My boot!

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Or their boots.

Or my.......I'm not even gonna go there. It's late.

I'm. Just. Not. Gonna. DO IT.

 

[Danimal]

Next time we do NOT let RJMC touch the controls!

Oh GOD! MY BAN-MOBILE!

We discussed this at the Operation: Not Null Numbers Meeting! I LET YOU GUYS BORROW MY BAN-MOBILE IF <RJMC> DID NOT TOUCH THE CONTROLS.

You better have a lot of rape dollars to pay for it. Bitches.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Do you accept it in rape form or just rape dollars??

 

[Jintor]

Rape cheque.

 

[99.vikram]

Rape is frowned upon in this forum.

:frown:

I cant stand it when I see the control of a vehicles I go crazy screamring "MAD MAX!" and shit happens

*<RJMC> crashes whit a bus killing 13*

 

[ríomhaire]

Forget the chopper and the bus. Let's just take Kirovman's zeppelin.

 

[The Monkey]

We can't approach Numbers from the sea, then the japs will stop us. We gotta go through communist territory. :O

"You take the point."

We'll paint the buss red and the commies won't notice it.

 

[ríomhaire]

Don't worry, I have Communist Connections.
<_<

"Yuri, you there?"

 

[<RJMC>]

I say we enter by catapult

 

[99.vikram]

"Yuri Gagarin speaking. Who the f*ck is this?"

 

[[Dragoon]]

Non-Korean professional gamers rejoice.

 

[ríomhaire]

"Yuri Gagarin speaking. Who the f*ck is this?"

Gagarin? Where the hell is Yuri Yuri?

 

[Jintor]

No, Comrade Premiere... it has only just begun.

*Jintor starts frothing at the mouth*

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Ok, what the shit does that mean?

 

[Jintor]

I take it you never played Red Alert 2?
