Animal Controlled Computer Games, a graduation project by Wim van Eck, is a Pac-Man-style game in which humans can play against real insects. The project has been written up in a short paper submitted to the 2006 International Conference on Entertainment. His project parallels part of the plot of Ender's Game, the Hugo and Nebula award-winning novel by Orson Scott Card.

Very very cool. It makes you think. Also didi anyone read in yesterdays metro about the guy who can move limbs with a microschip embedded on the surface of his brain?

for the record go to www.jamesdobbs.com to play pacman or simon.

(site is unrelated to me in all ways- just freakish coincidence that the guy has the same name and lives inlondon)

So when you eat a power pill, you're making real insects flee for their life in real terror. Borderline sick.

If people use small mammals such as mice and chimpansees(sp?) for scientific tests, I doubt they care how insects feel.
