DOATS1 on 12 April 2008

am i the only one that thinks that this is an ignorant and quite a stupid idea? a 360mote? the name doesn't even work! this can't be true, i'm sorry, microsoft aren't that desparate enough to blatanty rip off the selling point of their competition.

There not going to just release the remote in Japan, but there trying to gain ground on the Wii everywhere. Why would it be only for Japan, and not Europe and the Americas?

It's not just for Japan...Reading comprehension should be mandatory before posting.

Japan is the FOCUS with VP and Banjo Kazooie.

But do you SERIOUSLY think that it's Japan exclusive when the article says it's also going to be useful for HALO WARS?

Yeah. Halo Wars + 360mote in Japan = Obvious market. Right? Think again. Microsoft is merely just going to promote it in Japan, while American and European gamers get mouse-like accuracy for RTS games on the 360.

Which basically means now that the 360 will be THE dominant RTS console this entire generation, beyond hands down. I hope that Civilization: Revolution supports it too. Because if it does, I will buy it.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

will anyone actually fall for this blantent rip-off from nintendo??? its kinda annoying me that microsoft have no orgionality for themselves and are stealing ideas

oh yes, I believe nintendo invented videogames also.

 

They didn't make motion sensing! sony did(videogame controller!)! but their computer controller was unpopular...

 

and even then sony probably wasn't the first.

This is a joke thread and a joke article. It has one of our mods as the supposed guy who wrote the article and links back to his console future analysis on the front page.

it uses the discussion the source had with this other guy (interview) to make a quite bold statement.....
