Well, Sony is releasing Heavy Rain and Flowers with motion controls, Microsoft is releasing Milo, dont remember seeing games like this on Wii. Innovation will not be a hard part to beat Wii software. Most games on Wii, are regular games patch with motion control or mini-games. Dont get me wrong, Wii is fantastic, sales proves it, but it seems like Sony and Microsoft will tried to deliver new types of games instead of adding motion controls to current genre. Maybe im forgeting Wii titles, I would be glad if you can point me to Wii games that are innovative. But beware that adding motion control to mario, zelda, metroid or sports game is not innovative. A good example of innovation on Wii, would be Wii fit. Im probably missing 1 or 2 innovative titles, but it was release 4 years ago, im pretty sure Microsoft and Sony will do much more with the tech. At least much more for core gamer... |
Heavy Rain and Flower are examples of innovative games? They wouldn't even register on the radar for the Wii. Innovation that works is the name of the game and Nintendo has grossed over $2B on innovative titles for the Wii. Titles like Endless Ocean don't even register on the radar next to games like Wii Sports, Wii Sports resort, Wii Fit and Mario Kart. Thats effective innovation, Sony has never shown effective innovation and being this late to the game all they get are scraps of the market which aren't 100% enthused by the Wii on account of perhaps just graphics.
I love how you exclude all the great titles where the motion control + pointer interface work. Are you afraid of a fair comparison? Also haven't we worked out by now that core gamers 'hate' motion controls. How exactly does Sony get a free pass on this now?
