Corrosion?

What about corrosion? If you increase the surface area so much it'll be very quick to corrode (rust) and then all the hooks will fall apart.
Normally you would galvanise or paint it in with something water proof, but surly painting it would cover all the hooks up? I know this isn't an issue for stainless steel but there are plenty of other metals.
I think new and 'weird' ideas are best for the computer games industry, there is only so new and shiny that you can make a game.
There are lots of games out there which don't fit into the classic categories, but the company that I think make the biggest effort with new game play rather than better graphics is Nintendo. Games like Lougie's Mansion, Pikmin and to be titles like Jungle Beat are (will) be great fun to play, because they're different. I'm not saying Halo 2 or Doom 3 will be bad, just that it's more of the same. Think of how they could be made more original, see what Nintendo did to beat 'em ups with Smash Brothers. That is still the most fun I've had with friends in front of any kind of computer.
