Real-world applications of game technologies.

[Whitto]

There's a dog that keeps emptying itself on my front lawn, it makes me with I had a Zerg sunken colony to teach the little bugger a lesson.

Has anybody else thought of other uses for in-game equipment or items for the real world?

I was actually going to do a Doctorpus M.D update on exactly this subject but could never think of more than two or three things.

My favourite was always the gravity gun.

What it could be used for: Making construction easy. Rescuing people from collapsed buildings, crushed cars etc

What it's actually used for: Throwing radiators at people.
