Useless Video-Game-itized Items: How Far Will They Go?
If you’re an American (or know anything about us), there is one thing we share in common: people constantly try to sell us things we don’t need. Take one look at the Home Shopping Network and you’ll see what I mean. When it’s not products to make us lazier or feel better about ourselves, then it’s items that capitalize off of a great concept and make it…well, not so great. Take video games–they’re great.

Ever done WoW boxing? No, it’s not a World of Warcraft remake of Rocky 3, featuring Mr. T’s Night Elf Warrior Mohawk. It’s controlling multiple MMO characters through two or more PCs. Apparently someone took “or more” seriously and created a system that enables the control of up to 46 different characters.
