@nube: Basically that's all it is. I thought they were using electric impulses or something to make the muscles in a dead frog twitch. But I guess it's easier to make a bot covered in dead frog skin.

I use to do that too back last millenium, they called it "Froggers" I think.

If it could call upon mother nature to rain then I'm totally getting the Malaysian government to order enough to flood the entire country. My red-tailed Boa almost died of heat stroke yesterday, that poor little thing.

I think the market is ripe for virtual fishing. Oh, and you could pick a really hot chick to hold your pole for you in a bikini. You could order her to bait your hook, toss it in the lake, and let it bob up and down for awhile.

You see, if Michael Vick would've thought of something like this, he'd be in an entirely different situation right now.
