US Military Ramps Up Stinky VR Training
HarrisonSilp writes "CNN.com has a story regarding the U.S. Military's recent foray into using Virtual Reality as a training method. Being developed by Institute for Creative Technologies (ICT), they call it Mission Rehearsal Exercise or MRE for short, and it is a most impressive setup. 'The 5-minute scenario is projected onto a 150-degree movie screen, complete with 10.2-channel audio that creates floor-shaking sound effects. To enhance the sense of reality, smells including burned charcoal can be pumped into the room.' It almost makes me want to write off college and join the army..."

And in other news, Mr. Omer's next sim will be called "Real Congress", and get rave reviews for its accurate depiction.

Too conservative.

Give me gothic girls instead. No, not those idiots who paint their face black and white and prented to be vampires, but real fair skinned, waifish women with dark hair, haunted look and dark eyebags, interest in BSDM and attitude. Something like this.
