Hahahahahaha... Sony and Microsoft fanboys really make me laugh.

Do you people actually believe that Sony was the first for motion control? Seriously, stop saying they did this back in the ps2 day because they did nothing with motion control during the ps2 era. Do you guys think Nintendo decided to add motion control in 2006 one month before the wii release date? Jesus christ... They already knew they had to do this after the launch of the failcube(ok gamecube)
The hard cold truth is, sony wouldn't dare to release motion control first. They copied from Nintendo, just accept it.

Fanboys called motion waggle and gimmick, then so is this. 

 

For the people who think this will be succesfull, it won't. It will fail and they know it. It's just to prepare them for the next gen.

Funny I read a lot of that before the Wii was released too.  Time for the arrogance of Nintendo fanboys to take a hit I think.  Also Microsoft had a gyroscopic controller back in the early 90's long before the wiimote was even a concept, motion control has been around a awful long time, the difference is Nintendo were the first to successfully implement it.  The hard work for Sony and Microsoft has been done, Nintendo has proved to the public that motion control can be fun in games, now the other 2 players can ride the gravy train too.

If you honestly don't understand why many people criticized the "waggle" in Wii games then you're a fool.  I loved Trauma centre for it's inventive use of the wiimote but unfortunately for every game like that there is a several more where no effot has been put into implementing anything but the most basic gesture control.
