A US surgeon working on a "tele-health" breakthrough has devised a way for video game warriors to feel shots, stabs, slams, and hits dealt to their on-screen characters.

i for one do not really want to have an article of clothing that lets me know what if feels like to be shot or stabbed. I can give that a miss.

Now imagine it malfunctions while you are playing Battlefield 2 and you get zapped by the Medic's shock paddles.

CLEAR... *Boom*

Hmmm. A little creative hacking and you have ...

But how to make it scream "Don't taze me bro!" just before the shocks hit?

Oh you don't have to worry about that, those words comes naturally after getting paddled the first time... ;D
