I Must, I Must, I Must Improve My Reaction-Times
Do you find yourself losing intense beat down battles on a frequent basis? When staring straight into the scope of an enemy sniper, is your face always obliterated before you even have a chance to pull your trigger? After the initial double clashing of swords where neither person dies, does the other person usually kill you with that "B" button slash before you can even get your thumb on the same button? If any of these scenarios depict a situation you commonly find yourself in, perhaps your reaction-times are less than stellar. Now you can get your game back into tip top shape with this totally cool bionic hand looking contraption.
Called the Xtensor Gamer Hand Exerciser, the use of this product claims to make your reaction-times much quicker and also reduce the occurrence of those pesky hand cramps you get after a marathon session of gaming. "Repetitive gripping and squeezing of your game-controller or mouse forces extended isometric contractions of the flexor muscles of the hands and fingers producing an unnatural imbalance over time as the hands operate in a mostly closed position." To counterbalance that, this device stimulates muscles and tendons in the hands, wrists and elbows that usually lie dormant during typical gaming activities. The Xtensor Gamer Hand Exerciser, the 2007 winner of the Medical Design Excellence Award, is available at ThinkGeek for $39.99 (plus shipping). I just want one so I can pretend I am the Bionic Woman.
