The periBorg OreCommander: Vibrate your way to gamer nirvana

This looks like something you wouldn't want to be caught playing with, but gaming peripheral maker Hori has come up with a strap-on (calm down) device they call the periBorg OreCommander which fits over your hand and essentially vibrates the hell out of your fingers when you bend them to a certain angle, enabling you to hit the buttons on your controller with twitching, inhuman ferocity. They also claim it's good for relieving post-game hand stress.

I wonder how long before these start showing up at nightclubs for all the candy kids.
