Virtual Reailty: Possible or Unpossible?

[Redpengo]

This question has been stuck in my head for a few months, even years. Do you think its possible to be inside a game? I do think its possible. As our technology gets more advanced, we may do things we may not do today. What do you think?

[Brookocity1]

Impossible.
Well..that's imo.

[Shadow]

If you want to get extremely techincal, we actually never be "in" a video game.

A video game is piece of data that was created by a maker, and was only intended for enjoyment. While a video game may look realistic on your TV/PC/Handheld screen, there is no actual thing behind it.
Except electronics of course. However, if you are to tell me that you wish to be part of a game, to actually induce yourself into the game play, then I still say no. We already have sensory techonology such a head gear, and gloves, that can be found in arcades, that kind of thing has already proven to be not so good. While it may take away our eye sight from the real world, and focus us on a cyber world, you can still feel things from the outside. And feeling could never be taken away. So, really, you would never be able to fully neglect he real world for the cyber world.
Unless they alter your brain to think so. ;) Or painkillers.

AAAAANNNDDD
You could NEVER feel anything in a cyberworld.
So, the obvious answer/conclusion is no, it's absolutely posotutely NOT possible.

Actually, you could. They could create a sort of device that you could attatch to yourself to mess with your nervous system. Of course, that could be EXTREMELY bad for your health, and may turn you into a brain-dead vegetable.

[Goldpuff]

Well it could be possible, but not now. (I'm only a kid, so I might be wrong here) I've been looking into a lot of science lately. Piecing together the clue of extra-intelligent retroviruses and the science of love, you may need to drink some liquid (maybe some mixture of proteins) that are somehow modified to your liking. Another possible way is to (sometime) find out the unified theory and link it together with what we found about neuroscience so far then. Maybe we could make some type of helmet that does work efficently. But for now, the probability is small.

That's a good theory, but like the device I said could mess with your nervous system, it could be extremely dangerous for your well-being.

[Goldpuff]

For example the proteins could mix with other proteins in there already. Then it would make something else. Maybe perhaphs give you some new facial appearances or perhaphs turn you into a zombie, that is if the retrovirus was intelligent enough. (from today's knowledge, a highly advance retrovirus like that could attempt to replace your own mind with a hive mind, although half of the time the results would only appear to have dumped a laundry basket of halloween costumes over the person and then someone erased almost all the person's memory and knowledge and threw it away) Maybe some people will only start looking more into this when they're highly advanced and have nothing else to look at.

ROFL!!!!:D:D:D:D

[Goldpuff]

It could. It could also make you unlucky enough to not feel anything. You might even revive the terrible leperosy disease.

Who knows what the future holds for technology....

[Shadow]

That's a very dull response. Why not just not post at all if you're not going to give your post thought?

[Oreo]

That's a very dull response. Why not just not post at all if you're not going to give your post thought?

But that's just it. That is my opinion. I was just saying that whether or not it's possible now, it could be very possible in a few years.
I don't mean to sound rude when I say this, but if you don't have something kind to say, I would rather you not say it at all.

[Goldpuff]

Actually in Stephen Hawking's Universe in a Nutshell, he describes man's ability to predict the future found in black holes. The nanosecond before you are recycled, you instantly forget the past, remember the future. In other words, you can perhaphs see all the winning future lottery number and stuff. Only you won't live to do anything about it.

[Nemofinder]

Do I think you could actually go inside a game? No, but I do believe you could feel as if you were. I also think that it will be very cool

[Goldpuff]

But it could take pioneering technoledgy to "feel and see". One way is some type of drug that rewrites (safely) your genes (as if you were one specific character in the game and you want to "be" it.) If all goes wrong, you could be turned from human to mutant, worse, undead. An easier solution, is to build another world, or maybe even a universe from scratch. As of today that would be impossible (we haven't discovered the complete unified theory yet, nor the Planck's scale) So how are we supposed to "know" how to build a universe from scratch? Also dealing with wormholes, Hawking writes in Universe in a Nutshell that a portal/wormhole would have a large chance of being closed in quicker than you can get out at the other side. So you may be trapped in the middle (where it is quite dense with electricity) or on the game side. Another thing he said is that you may be crushed by an infinite volt bolt of electricity. (or maybe some rather large number)

[Dakota765432]

science i love this..... that would be cool! though we would become a zombie...

[hogwartsfan]

ya it is possible, ROFL i have been thinking about it. IT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!

[Zippy Googlemouth]

It is possible (just not right now.) It would take as much power as 3,000 time machines. It would be quite scary because you could never see the real world again. I'm planning that come out at about 2400. And an universe made from scratch is just plain impossible. Now just say you could teleport to a game. That is coming is 3000 in my books. Also, breaking the laws of physics on club penguin makes puffles VERY tired. And goldpuff, the lottery thing, seems quite impossible without a time machine. If you could see the future lottery winnings, there would be no such thing as a lottery. Same thing with bingo, bongo, and whatever else. If it is true, tell me what Party is going to win later on this month.

[Goldpuff]

About lottery, that is kind of what I said. The black hole's kind of the time machine. (and if you look, Western probably will win)

[Zippy Googlemouth]

I know. But you got that off the website.

[Goldpuff]

Actually I didn't. (don't accuse!) I stated earlier I have a copy of Universe in a Nutshell and A Brief History of Time.

[Graphite]

I believe anything is possible, I think it's a bit unlikely, but it's most likely possible, no one thought we'd be able to fly, et cetera.

[Reddeluxe]

i said possable:CMB:

[InsaneSymboite]

Zombies like.. RAWR I'LL REMOVE YOUR LEG AND EAT YOU UP AND SPIT YOU BACK OUT!!" Zombie? Undead as in leaving forever? Death as in fall down and never come back.. erm wow.. Scary no fooling.. I HOPE WE NEVER DEVELOP VIRTUAL REALITY LIKE THIS!

[NaviRock]

The answer is impossible.

[Goldpuff]

Reason? At least it would be impossible now...

[PenguinKid178]

Well.. I say possible but if we do enter a game. Our brain could fry or if the power goes out ( for some odd reason ) you could be trapped in a black room
for a very long time. or It could go well and you will be fine but you could come out feeling dizzy

[giatekla]

This couple of years scientists have been digging in the world of technology, making inventions one by one. When I was wondering about black holes one day, I asked a grown-up if anyone knows about black holes and what happens to you and all that. But somethin really catched my attention. It was about how scientists would use this WHOLE amount of energy (probably worth $100,000 - 2 billion dollars) to use this machine that could produce a tiny little black hole. Then the scientists would research about it. So basically, my answer is, maybe. Going inside a game probably takes the same amount of energy making a black hole does. So maybe it will be invented or maybe not because why would anybody waste such knowledge, money, and energy on such an invention? So there is just one answer to being inside a game: your dreams!

[Goldpuff]

Because they would feel like it. (I would for some reason)Scientists already can make mini-stars in a machine, and yes you can always dream.

[s4d0s]

LOL if we were superheros its possible... but thats M-possible (Impossible DUH)

[Goldpuff]

Impossible now, but yes, some superheroes (ex. Superman) could. There's always Hawkman (less known), in his jet, with all these machines and stuff that could take him into another dimension or so...

[giatekla]

I also have another theory that there would be these glasses and all we have to do is look through it, and it makes your brain think you're in this video game world and stuff. We never know if the future would make an invention. We never know....

:516: Waddle On! :516:

I was thinking "Waddle On" should be part of my sig. but I like typing.

[Goldpuff]

Just like Mona Lisa. An average human's eyesight actually is very bad, (or at least can't distinguish fine details), so the brain thinks Mona Lisa's eyes are moving, and for your sig, you could put it in your sig and still type it...

[QueenPangin7]

It would be awesome. I hope it happens someday...

THAT WOULD SO TOTALLY ROCK!!!!!!! :Talking:

[petalklunk]

There could be goggles that make it SEEM like you live in a video game, but it would be just a trick of your eyes

[giatekla]

True... it could...

[petalklunk]

If your brain got connected to a electric needle or something to make it like you were in a video game, you would have no brain after you put it in

[Lefty97]

Actually, you could. They could create a sort of device that you could attatch to yourself to mess with your nervous system. Of course, that could be EXTREMELY bad for your health, and may turn you into a brain-dead vegetable.
It would be good if your not isolated from the real world, then you can tell when suppers ready. :P
You dont really need to mess with your nervous system. You can have little things attatched to you that send a vibration or pump or other sensation to you.

But that wouldn't be very good for games like Mortal Kombat.

[Goldpuff]

At least there's hypnosis, which kind of counts. There are some virtual reality gaming systems, but they're not the type where you would actually [seem to] do something with your own hands. Just helmets that simulate VR.

[giatekla]

There's an invention already...

~Flanders Man

[Goldpuff]

Looks like a hypnotized half cyborg in his unconscience thinking schizophrenia or something.

[Dark Trent]

A more logical invention: Nintendo Wii, you just need the company to design swords, artificial snow balls, artificial pies or even artificial non playing penguins/toons/humans/charcters.

Other ideas:

1.But I think its possible if you buy some land build the buldings of club penguin, put the mini games but aquagrabber and bean counters and sledding you have to put a computer where the ride suppose to be you play it on a computer.But theres a problem you can't use the propeller cap to fly....This place could be called Club Penguin Land.

2.Invent a game experience system(GES) but every game developer that want to allow their users to use it will have to make their own.For example if the club penguin developers want it, ther Club Penguin GES will have to have snow ball throwers, a snow like feelling floor mat, fans, waddle pad, eletronic mancala/find four, sleding chair and other stuff.It will cost a lot thus the gamer will have to pay about $90 to $200 if he wants to for a true game experience but if he doesn't well he'll stick to the $5 something.. deal.

Whew, thats a lot!

[Lefty97]

to me it looks like he's holding a toy. Like one that you get for 50 cents at a convenience store.

[XxAnnaxX]

I think it's quite impossible if you look at it carefully.. :)

[Goldpuff]

It's indirectly possible.

[BowserJr25]

Well games in 3D that used 3D glasses are VR, right? I mean, Space Harrier 3D and Contra: Legacy of War had 3D via 3D glasses (although it was pointless), so they must be VR?

[giatekla]

to me it looks like he's holding a toy. Like one that you get for 50 cents at a convenience store.

Do you see the thing on his back? No way you get that at a convenience store. And no way that is 50 cents! It's an invention, and it's already invented. Virtual Reality: Possible.

Flandaz

[Goldpuff]

It's just a video game thing that uses your movements to function. It ain't virtual but for the screen. Bu that's just graphics.

[XxAnnaxX]

Here's the thing:

Virtual Reality is clearly impossible. The thing that Flanders Man (girl) showed is an invention that you put on and the goggles just make you see pictures and graphics somehow. The little thing he's holding is a gun-like thing that he must have been using because it might have been a war game he was playing. Virtual Reality is quite impossible, and the inventors and scientists are still trying to find out if it's possible OR impossible. But currently, it's impossible.

It might be possible in the future, but not in 2008, 2009, or 2010.

That's my opinion, and no rude comments on it, okay? JUST AN OPINION.

[Goldpuff]

Unless "novus orbis decretum insidiae conitor ratio" proves true...

Hopefuly it doesn't or the notourious "valetudo of senior illumanti" hoax might prove true.

[Bluefire78]

I highly dissagree about virtual reality. I don't think we should mess with are body like that. Unless its very very safe i wont use it. anyways i like games the way they are.

[Savanabanana99]

I agree... with everyone. It just couldn't be possible yet it can. There may come a day when there is a device that could d such, I mean our technolegy is really advancing. So you never know. But eather way you can't actually be "in" technolegy-- It's just not possible, so there could eventually be a device that makes the ellusion you are in the game. So you never know what could happen.

[Goldpuff]

Simulated reality from a source or computer can have a lot of possibilities. Hackers can make stuff happen, anti-malware programs can delete you, accidents happen, a crash would be fatal, and more things.

Wonder how the Matrix survived that...
