It's an unified memory architecture. Probably same as the Wii (read PROBABLY) On-topic: I say Wii. You need nothing else, and if they want to add a specific IR-LED equipped glasses, they should be inexpensive. An IR LED is just a cents worth. |
I stated that. And that's true. Unified archs. are easier to use for the most part because you can move RAM to where you need it.
Sorry to get it off topic.
I would think Nintendo would be the first to do something like this, though in all reality, as cool as headtracking is, it has limited usage for the most part. How many people are gonna want/be able to move around an entire room just to play a game? The shooting and ducking sounds cool, and it works relatively well in Lee's video, but... that's about it. Anything that requires you to move more than a foot or so from where you started wouldn't work, because you might hit a wall or something. I know in my dorm room I wouldn't be able to play something that required me to move too much.
I would say Nintendo again because this would actually work better for those "non-game" type games. Think Endless Ocean type thing. For real games, as cool as it is, I just don't think it could be used too much. It's the same thing with the WiiFit board. But that's another thread.
