If you thought peeing into a urinal couldn't be fun, well you will be glad to hear about the latest Belgium invention - a video game in the public loo - one that relies on players hitting sensors in urinals to control the game play.

Werner Dupont and Bart Geraets, a software and electrical engineer, have developed the "Place to Pee" games to be playable for two bathroom visitors at time. Apparently the idea for the game came to them while they were on a binge one night on Belgian ale, which I hear is the time when most genius breakthroughs take place in that part of the world.

The game has two modes - one features a ski race that has players compete against each other on a virtual slalom course and a the second is a space battle where you fire on hostile aliens with your... gun.

Now the real genius of this concept is that it's not restricted to males - the Belgium's would never conceive such a sexist game. Women are able to get into the action by making use of a specially-designed paper cone which will be available in the women's loo's.

But before you all start booking tickets to Belgium, apparently the franchise that developed these games was recently shutdown by Belgian gendarmes due to claims of indecency.

If you don't believe me - check out the original report!

I heard that it's not just for the guys, girls could play with a special 'funnel'. Seriously.

Hahaha i read about this. My friend used to tell us that there were targets in the urianls at a pub that we always used to go to back in Sydney and it was like playing 'shoot the duck' game where the target wouls spin around when you hit the bulls eye. Me and my friends believed him for ages, as he had allt he boys in on it... until one day we went in there to investigate, we were very disappointed!

I think its so funny, as long as if you crossed paths with 'force/pressure' it wouldnt 'bounce back at you/spray onto your pants' like when you turn the tap on and are washing a spoon and it sprays out in all directions.

Like those targets you can buy the little ones when they are learning to use the toilet that you hang in the toilet and they have to hit the bullseye!
