Imagine injecting yourself with flame-throwing or electric-throwing inducing stem cells and you’ll get the picture. Now you can pretend with props!

These EVE hypos cost only $US23 and even have LEDs to make it seem like the real thing. The actual needle looks way too thick to actually inject anything into any part of your body, unless you’re thinking what we’re thinking. But who needs fire and/or electricity shooting out of their arse? Oh wait, everyone. [Play via Nerd Approved]

This week, Gizmodo is exploring the enhanced human future in a segment we call This Cyborg Life. It’s about what happens when we treat our body less as a sacred object and more as what it is: Nature’s ultimate machine.

First, there’s Re-Volt, made by some Canadian developer, that’ll have Quake-ish graphics and feature tilt and touch controls as well. Then, even better, there will be BioShock. Yes, that BioShock. The one with the fantastic mood and storytelling. Who knows how bastardised the iPhone version will be, but we want it. [Pocket Gamer (BioShock) and Pocket Gamer (Re-Volt)]
