Thanks to a new device called the Media Vehicle we now know what the future control-pods allowing us to manipulate our giant, super strong, battle robots will look like. Although the prototype unit can currently only accommodate an operator weighing up to 132 pounds, the first iteration of the Media Vehicle is impressive.
Once inside a large spherical display acts as your virtual video experience while your legs are allowed to move freely on a movable track. It's a good thing this is still just a prototype, because if you thought the XBox 360 was a reason not to leave your home for a few days, it's likely this thing will significantly change your life when released commercially.

Exactly like it. And you even get into it in a similar way, only from the front insted of from the back as in Ghost in the Shell. I bet you anything that's where they got the idea, at least for the look of it.
