How to build a sword-wielding, tennis-playing, WiiMote-controlled, friendly robot

This is pretty cool... However, I do not feel their job is done yet..

They need to use what they have come up with to build a gigantic R.O.B. The Robot to play 8-bit Gyromite using the new Wii controler.

The original used gyros, a machine to spin them up, and a base to set them on that interfaced to the A and B buttons on the controller. Using gigantic gyros might be potentially disastrous, but I'm sure something with weights could be done. And using the Wii controller to control the robot would sure as hell be easier than the old R.O.B..

] Would today's tykes tolerate the classic games you grew
] up with? Kids do say the darndest things in this uncut
] version of an EGM article—now with a bonus game not
] included in the original story!

] Tim: This is nothing compared to Grand Theft Auto III,
] because you can't steal a taxi cab, pick up somebody,
] then drive into the ocean with him.

Special Force - Islamist Video Game

] Beginning, we must say that we cannot seriously talk
] about “Arab Electronic Games”, since this sort of games
] is unavailable in the market. If there were some, they would
] rather be simple, sloppy, and unable to meet the ambition of
] the young generation, where it can present a 3D game that
] converses with the reality and draws ahead a picture of a
] complete world via which a young man can move, as happens
] in the foreign games.
]
] This gap is one of the gaps that face Arab programming
] production. This gab must not be underestimated and it heads
] the top of the Arab programmers’ agenda. These programmers
] give priority – fairly – to other grave issues they are
] working on, trying to find solutions for them, especially
] that which concerns the great development of world’s
] programming, which requires updates via exerted huge efforts,
] where Arab programmers seem unable to exert, due to the lack
] of the possibilities.
]
] Ahead of this Arab weakness, there was a continuous
] American-western attack on our boys. There are different
] types of games their hands can reach everyday amongst who
] some can be considered as scandalous by all means, such as
] that game in which a player “destroys the terrorist camps
] that were established by the terrorist organizations in the
] south of Lebanon!”
]
] Ahead of this two-complicated-trends reality, western attack
] and Arab defeat. It was necessary to oppose this problem via
] one of two solutions: banning these games exclusively,
] knowing this issue is not possible since some of its aspects
] are illogic, or working towards the opposite direction by
] finding an alternative issue – that can offer fun to our
] boys –. In addition, this presents games, which can suite
] our reality and does not crash against the moderm and
] struggling values of our nation.

So Hizbullah has released a video game.. Its a windows platform first person shooter. It appears to be available for download here.
