6 Painful Peripherals That Wanted Us To Suffer

Consider the Guitar Hero Grip, into which you would clamp one of your precious food grabbers and which, within a few minutes, would reset your hand bones into a wizened claw shape. Or the Atari Mindlink, which required prolonged bouts of uncomfortable eyebrow wiggling.

For maximum discomfort, though, strap on a 'Tactile Gaming Vest': a sporty combat tabard that simulates in-game bullet hits. Hurray?

Damn it Jane! It's not 'pun prison', it's 'your local punitentiary!'

I bought a Virtual Boy one week before Nintendo discontinued it.
The nice little old lady at the Wal-Mart, upon hearing my story of woe and regret, let me swapsie it for a SNES.

[RIPjkripper]

I remember throwing a tantrum in Sears because my parents wouldn't buy me a virtual boy.  And here they were just looking out for me and being good parents.  *sniff  Mom & Dad, I love you!!

*Sees Guitar Hero hand thing*

No... no... I left you *Hand starts cramping*

Lose blood in real life when you get hurt in a game? They would've made a lot of $$ in Bloodborne. :D

[LyricaSilvan]

Blood Sport looks horrifying...who the hell were they kidding when they came up with that? Did they _really_ think anyone was going to pay money to have their own blood sucked out of them while they're playing a video game? What the hell were they smoking??

[Preidon]

I love playing Dark Souls when my Blood sport is on.

"I have been compared to Kevin Spacey"
Boy, that hasn't aged well...

[WhammyTime]

When Jane said "profound curvature of the spine" I immediately shot up in my chair. Impulsive reflex I suppose.

[tcarson]

"I don't like cold tea"

As a Texan, where iced tea is the official beverage of everything, I am personally hurt by this

[TheTman]

the Wii Balance board and pretty much the Wii in general encouraged exercise, that hurt!

[benroberts]

I'm tempted to watch every single video to see if a joke has aged worse than the Kevin Spacey one :D

[bisba]

Power Glove was the first thing that came to my mind when I read the title of the video.

00:19 I swear to god that's mikes younger twin

[HorrorLover]

As much as I like donating blood, especially since I'm O-, I'd rather do it a clinic or a blood drive bus, not while playing video games.

[SonicRooncoPrime]

How did anyone expect Blood Sport to work? What if a donor was too good at the game, or horrible? You either get no blood at all or too much blood and a corpse.

Also, missed these vids, glad to see they're back OxBox! And Happy New Year!

[spiderbits]

"I have been compared to Kevin Spacey." Ouch Jane, this video has not aged well lmao.

[solidaritytime]

"Free Stigmata withe every controller- be 'holier' than all your friends!" Would have been an awesome tagline!

[jamest]

Jane: I have been compared to Kevin Spacey

Me: 😬

[Jijijijijij]

I swear these guys can make any topic hilarious! My favorite game-related channel, and I don't even own an Xbox.
