I like the add-on, and I've played a fair few games with it, but I've always maintained that a pursuit for true 1:1 control by all gaming companies is utterly futile. Player skill prohibits it too much, so we must instead settle for something incredibly close to 1:1 to truly enjoy it. For example, if somebody released a tennis game with true 1:1 control that was exactly like real tennis, how the hell would anyone get any good at it in a short space of time? Tennis takes years to master, I don't want to spend that long trying to get good at a game, as I'd get bored after a week at the most. It'd be the same for many types of games in many types of genres as well, and the market for sequels would disappear instantly (so EA would say goodbye to the money spinning annual updates of their sports franchises). So gaming companies can talk up the pursuit for 'true 1:1' control with their 'my 1:1 control is better than your 1:1 control' nonsense, but the reality of the situation will be something completely different.

Oh, and I picked up Red Steel 2 with the motionplus for £1 less than the standalone game was at the time, but I don't expect little bits of info like that to be registered by those obstreperous and belligerent types...
