| Reasonable said: It's a real mistake to jump on one thing (Wimote, or HD graphics) and think that's what its all about. |
I agree, yet the graphics in a PS3 and 360 are next gen, meaning technology had to advance to a point where they could be produced. The Wii mote could have been made 10 years ago. Nothing about it is technologically new. It just needed a brilliant mind to think it up.
So when talking about "Next Gen" game play, I would point to something like Gears of War 2 having 100 creatures with good AI charging you all at once. That could not have been done with the technology we has last gen. The Wii mote could have if someone had thought to make it.
I am not putting any distinction on what's more important to gaming, just clarifying the difference :)
P.S. I didn't even know you posted in here... going to go read it, as I always like what you have to say :)
