Well if you do not feel like you are being immersed enough in your video games then some researchers from the University of Pennsylvania hope to remedy this. They have been working to produce what is more or less a vest that the player would wear so to have them feel the bullets and shrapnel around them."

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
It would be an interesting experience...although it would require a big inVESTment.
Realism in games shouldn't be the focus their games after all, have fun with it.
Devices like these are really interesting explorations of the way people connect to interactive media. At the base level, games that have violence and put players in life threatening situations are so appealing because they allow you to straddle that line between a connection to, and disconnect from, the visceral impact of what you're doing, all at once. The question then becomes, what do people want more, the visceral connection, or the safety of the disconnect?
Personally, I think this concept, though unique, would be discomforting at the very least.
This definitely takes it to another level...
What a cheap piece of tat.
