Np.

@simulacrum.

Well if they put a analogue on each wand and require you to use two. It'd work perfectly for genres like fps and stuff.

Also they should use the wand as a curser in rts games and not to "draw circles" .. :p the other way functions better.. where you just drag a big square.

Well that video only shows that it can do what the wiimote can do. everything to the last showcase. Even the walking around the room and aiming from different angles is possible on the Wii and that has been shown already on the net. Writing your name is just as easy, it comes down to just how good you are at controlling the wiimote.

seriously, this new ps3 controller doesn't show anything new. What's more it looks like it needs to be worked on as there still looks to be a few problems with accuracy (the part where he's trying to hit the ball).

i don't know, to me it looked like even if he was nervous, he still was hitting it well enough to get the ball with the racket trim but he didn't. it looked like you either hit it good or not at all. so i'll stick with my concept of lackin accuracy as of now. Of course they should have this fixed in no time if they know what they're doing.

Massive sea of patches for every game confirmed???

I never thought the issue was the tech with the ball timing - definately looks like the guy simply was on stage, nervous and not hitting the mark well.  The swing seemed aligned to his movements, but his timing didn't seem to fit the ball.

Either way looking at the tech it'd be surprising if Sony didn't get it working - the core principles seem sound in terms of how the controlers work with the camera.

I'm more concerned Sony produce great games to go with the tech.  Historically they seem to 'throw out' stuff like EyeToy, etc. but then assume developers, etc. will deliver the goods because they're excited by it, and this rarely follows through.

Sony themselves need to make sure they deliver compelling titles (which could be faimly fun, hardcore gaming or a mix) to support the tech launch, otherwise it's just another accessory that may/may not get decent support.

Looking at MS Natal project I think they've learnt this looking at Nintendo, and are working to deliver titles and guidance to make sure the device at least has a chance of taking off.

lets just hope they add trophies to all the games while they're at it so whiners can stfu.

This.

How the hell did some people read it as promising motion control patches for ps3 games is beyond my understanding.

They will probably somehow map motion moves to analogs.

I have no idea how this is going to be usefull and comfortable but who cares. It's not like we suddenly are going to sell our DS3.

If the 2 wands combined has the same buttons... why wouldn't you ?

He can also just mean in theory. If they update each game.

Well i don't see whats the problem?  Willmote M+ with HD Graphics and a better library of older PS3 games (MGS4, RE5, Uncharted, Killzone, etc.).  Thats what i've been waiting for but i guess motion controls are not for everyone.
