It may not be coming to the PS3, but it may be coming to the military. This inventor's proposed suit looks like something out of Konami's Coded Arms. Troy Hurtubise has designed a suit that resists bullets from fire power, including an elephant gun.
From The Hamilton Spectator: "He has spent two years and $15,000 in the lab out back of his house in North Bay, designing and building a practical, lightweight and affordable shell to stave off bullets, explosives, knives and clubs. He calls it the Trojan and describes it as the "first ballistic, full exoskeleton body suit of armour." "The whole suit -- which draws design inspiration from Star Wars, RoboCop, Batman and video games -- is made from high-impact plastic lined with ceramic bullet protection over ballistic foam." Read more on the suit here at The Hamilton Spectator. Read more from Xbox 360 Fanboy. (Although Xbox 360 Fanboy thinks it reads more like a Spartan getup, the suit has an uncanny resemblance to the Coded Arms suit).
