@rotaryfan: Regardless, the question remains that if an event of this magnitude took place even 100,000 light years away, (and remember, they don't know what the catalyst was) it would most definitely vaporize anything living. I mean holy crap, this thing lasted 10 minutes!

I'd also like to say, "fuck you" to Los Angeles for being the worst city in the world in terms of its public transportation, massively congested roads and freeways.

I can't believe MS is going to launch this device given that there is lag between you and the on-screen action. That is a deal-breaker. Hard-core gamers won't stand for the latency in their reaction times and casual gamers will hear about the devices faults and pass on it altogether because it won't be a "must have"…

@Arken: Apparently France is invaded by England in the future... Hence Picard's English accent ;-)

Was the animation done with The Sims 3?

Jackalope, anyone? #10kgenomeproject
