That's just until the next generation when Microsoft decides to bundle the NextBox with Kinect and something like this.

The day I am required to wear a bodysuit to play video games is the day I fucking quit gaming and go do outdoor activities much more often than I do now.

Damn right. At a time when keeping cost down is a major objective someone is gonna bring out a gaming "wet suit".

They might have spent a few hundred dollars but by the time that suit is refined (and it must be built to last) that thing will cost a small fortune.

Maybe I got it wrong but that suit still wouldn't solve what I think the bloke that made the statement is getting at.

I think your right, the weapon would still has no weight, and the game obstacle would not exit in your living room. When using a sword in reality, you cannot swing 3 times per second, you cannot swing hard with just a flick of the wrist, and you cannot swing through a robust obstacle. It would look like playing a Wii/Move fighting game, hence the decision to stick with magic.
