Xavix: realistic gaming without the annoying reality

After last year's failed attempt to make a lame game look cool through a celebrity endorsement from Jackie Chan, gaming company Xavix has kicked it up a notch.

Their games have evolved since last year, when gamers had to hop on a sensor mat. This year Xavix was demonstrating POWERBOXING, a virtual boxing game where the player wears sensor equipped gloves. But failing to make for truly realistic gaming, there is no chance of getting punched back.

In BassFISHING, players pretend to be using a fishing rod – for those fishing enthusiasts who are driven crazy by the soothing sounds of nature when practicing the real thing.

If this company is allowed back of CES 2007, could someone at least teach them how to turn off caps lock?
