People seem to be pretty optimistic about the average persons ability to operate their means of transportation. Half the idiots out there can barely drive a car, and we want to toss them into a personal aircraft? The only way this could be good would be if enough of them would crash and burn that we could evolve into a race of decent drivers.
Force Feedback is cool and all, but I really feel that the hardcore gamer will NOT want this sort of thing. When it comes to Quake and UnrealTourney online competitions get serious and the last thing you want is your mouse shaking all over the damn place or getting shocked while trying to counter attack. This is a great technology and can really be great in a just for fun environment (isn't that what games are?), but lots of hardcore clanners will definitely not want to use this sort of thing.
