^Well, then beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I consider what they did with the WiiU pad for ZombiU to be something that smartglass does not render irrelevant for a long time, and that is anything but a gimmick, but the path towards ever increasing immersion. Immersion is the thing I strive for as a gamer, since I'm a pretty retro gamer at the root. Games like Metroid and Bioshock appeal to me, so does a game like Uncharted, because it sucks me in. ZombiU's footage did the same for me, and most of that, appart from the 1-life hardcore mechanic, was done thanks to what you call gimmicks, on the padlet.
I have no problem disagreeing with you starkly, since I value my opinion more than yours.
