    Isn't that the premise of Cronenberg's son's new movie "Possessor", except that the body inhabiting/control is used specifically to get away with murdering people?

      Damn... I literally watched that a week ago and it didn't come to mind.

      spoiler

      Difference between the Possessor and the others is that Possessor's universe only has a few people being able to do the body control thing. Gamer is like the entire world has access to this technology with a bunch of the people not knowing that they're controlling living people and the controlled people are poor and/or incarcerated. Surrogates had people logging into robot bodies that looked like people so that they could avoid harm.
