Mod parent up. This is a common mistake, and will only get worse now that the PlayStation Move has been officially announced. The Move does not use a PS2 peripheral as most people are reporting, It uses the Eye, which originally(?) shipped with Eye of Judgment card game -- although most people I know who own an Eye use it to video conference on the PS3.
The variation you speak of is called 'Risk 2210 A.D.' made by Avalon Hill - which i think was once Hasbro but now is WotC? I worked for a startup a few years ago and we would play or continue games of risk on our lunchbreak in the conf room [Before i started working there they were playing HalfLife]. After a while it became routine and we looked for a new game. I found this online and it became a new hit at lunch -- before we knew it we had 3 sets and multiple games going [and had to laminate the cards]. It was a fun updated version of risk and much more interesting than any of us thought it would be before we bought it. you can read more about it: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=ah/prod/risk2 210 or view pictures: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/imagegallery.php3?gam eid=1829 . fun game
i'd rather have a HUD implanted in my eye somehow and have direct access (via mind control) to maps, gps, radar and variants of those (x-ray, infared, etc..)
an interface with your brain would be nice... anybody see that sony walkman thing that you wear on your head and you "hear" the music in your mind? i saw it in some sony promo magazine... it looks uh... interesting although the next step would be a mind control device like this... reminds me of an old episode of batman or something...
