From Omgnoway Gaming Monthly:

Just when we thought we have all “The World” could offer, around the corner comes bigger and better things! Just in time for holidays are accessories that are sure to enhance your gaming experience and make that last dungeon or duel a memorable one. The recent rush of “The Worlds” products come both form CC Corporation and third party software. Looks like everyone is jumping in the boat now! Listed are the top 3 products that are sure to be a hot topic at stores and on gamers wish list for these holidays! Thought you had a life...kiss it goodbye!

1. “Feel It” Power Gloves and Foot Pedals ($100.00)- For those of you that always like a “hands on” approach to things, we have the perfect gift for you! These babies give you the ultimate feel and the smoothest control. Their patented sensor-n-motion technology packed in between the gloves’ vinyl covering send out sensations to the user depending on the situation, resulting in a very realistic experience. Accompanying the gloves is a set of foot pedals for even more fine tuned movement. Just what this intricate set of metallic pedals does is unknown to the public, but with a 2 week-from-now release date and a test ride for users one week before, it is sure to create some buzz! Keep an eye open and grab these before they run out! We will!

2. “The World” Character Editor ($25.00)- This handy product is just that, an editor for your character! It’s time to play dress up with this smooth be-your-own-designer program. Don’t like that plain green armour that makes your heavy axe look boring? Snaz that look up with pink pokadots and yellow stripes! Anything and everything goes with this stupendous editor which gets a 5 out of 5 from our side. Don’t feel convinced? Just look out for the fly blademaster wearing tie-dye pants and a purple shirt, weekdays on Mac Anu from 7 eastern on! Barbie eat your heart out!

3. Boom! Audio Set ($30.00)- The latest in performance sound is here with the Sony earphone and audio manager software. Included in the package is a set of earmuff earphones, covering the outer part of your ear for masterful sound. It’s soft leather snug on you head and plastic inserts connect to your VR visor for a comfy experience. Mounted on the right earphone is a volume slider for audio tunings and music selector for on-the-spot tracks. The software installs a very easy to manage music player into the game for personalized tracks. Tired of the same old battle theme? Rock it out to the beets of System of a Down or easy ride it to victory while grooving it to Nelly. You can even have a play list set up for different types of dungeons! For its simplicity, great manageability and excellent quality, the Boom! Audio Set gets 5 out of 5!

There you have it...the top three “The World” products any person who even calls themselves a fan should get. Give Mr. Ho Ho Ho a call and have him deliver these A.S.A.P.! So long for now and see you on the World!

Wow, I'd like to get that Boom! Audio Set. I've always been into music and stuff like that, so a better audio system would be nice.

I'd want the Audio Set and Character Editor. It's a bit much though... I guess I'll have to start saving!

Sojuro - December 15, 2003 12:43 AM (GMT)
I'll take all of it! Though, my chances are i'll get none.... :(

Ichida - December 15, 2003 01:31 AM (GMT)
(OOC: How does this work exactly? Is this just something to make the game look real? Also, is the Character Editor really necessary? I mean, we all chose what our character looks like when we registered.)

The Audio Set sounds wicked. Must get :)

(OOC: Cypher says: When we reg, we only get limited freedom. This gives you twice as more ^_^ )

The character editor seems a little strange the way it is described. Pink poka dots on a Heavy Axe? *shivers*

Gojira - December 15, 2003 10:47 PM (GMT)
You know, the more I read about the "Feel It" stuff, the more it interests me. Is there anyone who has tested it? Could you perhaps give a little review of it?

Rhilla - December 15, 2003 11:36 PM (GMT)
It had better be good for a hundred bucks.

Shadow_Ryu - December 17, 2003 07:16 PM (GMT)
The brilliant sounds of Metallica while tearing up a Thousand Trees? Awesomeness! Plus I'd really like to grip that huge sword when I cut things down. I can't wait for this!

Kasano Rookoni - December 19, 2003 01:02 AM (GMT)
Oooh looks intresting, I'd enjoy feeling the impact of gutting a goblin or two. :D

Quebe Lae - February 17, 2004 03:32 PM (GMT)
Anyone hear any new news about these items? Maybe trying to integrate them into The World caused the crash...

I'm saving up for those "Feel it" gloves. I just got my VR helmate, so gloves will definatly complete the experience.

FXOmniCrest - March 29, 2004 11:02 PM (GMT)
Forget the BOOM! Audio system for a while, I'll take the "Feel it"s! It would definately give tons of freedom, plus, now that this is old news, I know about the pedals! They aren't exactly pedals, but minature electronic pressure pads that you can stand up and walk around on the pads, which magnetically keep you in the same place no matter how fast you walk/run/jump/move! COOL! By now, being that this is old news, it should be less than what is up on the news...

Hamsta - April 5, 2004 10:34 PM (GMT)
I am quite intrigued by the "Feel It" gloves and foot pedals, as well as the Character Editor software. I suppose I have always been a sucker for being able to have full control of things, as well as getting as much out of an experience as possible.
I suppose it's time for me to break the piggy bank then...

Ashura - June 28, 2004 04:24 PM (GMT)
I want the 'Character Editor' and 'Audio Set'!!!!

Krops - June 28, 2004 11:57 PM (GMT)
Definityly the char editor! I always thought my character looked more like a longarm than a blademaster.

I picked up a set of those "feel it" things at my job. Gotta love employee discount ^_^ . They're totally wicked! Full emersion system, or close to it at least. I also heard that CC corp. is developing a truly full emersion sub-concuis system. It knocks you out and your mind is in complete control. Only problem is there are alot of saftey concerns with it, so they might not release it. <_< . If they do though, I'm defintly gonna buy one!

Shathro - June 29, 2004 12:32 AM (GMT)
sOUNDS COOL. bUT i DON'T GET IT. iS THE STUFF FOR THIS. OR IS THE WORLD A ACTUAL GAME?

Ashura - June 29, 2004 03:04 PM (GMT)
I want that too!!! But I need money... :rant:

Yuna Whitepaws - June 29, 2004 05:03 PM (GMT)
Is this stuff actaully real? This place is only a website and I really like it and all but how do you feel a web site story?

FXOmniCrest - June 29, 2004 08:41 PM (GMT)
(OOC: Shathrow and Whitepaws, if you didn't notice, this is in IC, in character, not real, at least not yet, but so far, it is FICTION! YAY!!! Go fiction!)

Yah, I want, quite honestly, it all, but the feel it's are a definite must.

Yuna Whitepaws - June 30, 2004 02:35 AM (GMT)
I love fiction! Hmm... Feel it gloves. That sounds... SO AWESOME!

[COLOR=gray]I'm getting a little too over exited again...[COLOR=gray]

Largefatguy - June 30, 2004 03:00 AM (GMT)
I would defiantely want to get the the boom audio set so i could blast some good music.

I would also want to get the character edit. I might get tired of how my character looks.. :lol:
