The mind-control Wii headset also reminded me of this game I played when I was at the Tom Tits Experiment (an Exploratorium-type place) in Sweden.  In the picture, you see my brother-in-law John taking on my niece Kelli.  You basically strap these brainwave-sensing head straps on and then try to move the little ball over to your opponent’s end.  The ball will move faster when you have LESS brain waves, i.e. when you’re not thinking about anything.

I was pretty good at this game, which means I’m exceptionally good at blanking/spacing out.

That said, I’d love to see Professor X take on Jean Grey in a game like this.  Who would win?  I’d say Jean takes it provided that she exposes a little cleavage to throw the old man off.
