What is a hardcore gamer?

baka said: This is not accurate. Physics simulations are at the core of a large number of games. How accurately the physics are modeled varies, but allowing for headshots while shooting is well within the system's capabilities.

First. I could play duckhunt from 10 feet from a 13inch TV. and hit every duck. I have trouble doing headshots in raving rabbits. so it is NOT that accurate. (on a 40 inch TV at 5 feet) It should be about... 10x easier... at least if they used what the NES did. Second. If you think a headshot is a physics simulation. I want some of what your on. Becuase there have been headshots since HalfLife... possibly earlier, but I cant name any. Halflife came out in about 96 or 97. Physics is I shoot you in the leg. The leg is blown out from under you. (depending on the bullet mass/velocity) possibly trips you, you fall on your face. Then I run up to you, and shoot you in the back of the head while your tyring to get up. OR if I'd be useing a small calibur rifle, just cause you to stumble and then limp. the Wii does NOT have enough power to do that. How do I know? My PC dont. And my PC is ALOT faster than a Wii. (Crap, my processor uses more power than the Wii... And my processor is one of the most energy efficent processors there is) The pointer is not accurate for 2 reasons. 1. The way it works. It works of 2 IR dots, useing a webcam style sensor. It finds the 2 dots, identifys the distance from the 2 dots, and then guesses where you are pointing on the screen. Due to the fact the sensor is such a low resolution. I would say it has less than a 300x300 grid to point at. Wich is basically fine for a SDTV. Or a small TV. The problem with that method is, it has a delay, it uses alot of power, and the sensor tends to jitter the pointer. 2. If you are in a bright room, and have a glossy TV frameing, or glass around your TV, the sensor picks up more than 2 IR dots, and goes apeshit. (forget a wii if you have a window behind your TV. Speaking of apeshit, I had my sensor detecting 12 IR transmitters... And some from the window were brighter than the ones on the TV. That's why it's not on my 40inch TV) The accelerometer blows. Not digging on this but it just blows. It sucks on the PS3 as well. Luckily it is not USED on the PS3 much. EDIT: The GB is capable of allowing headshots. EDIT2: I mean the GameBoy. Not the GameBoy Color, or the GameBoy Advance. I mean the trusty old brick, that everyone played the crap out of Tetris on.
