Please don't assume that's the reason at all. Yes HD Rumble is an improvement, you literally can't say it's bad, it's objectively better. I just wouldn't really regard it in itself is really "innovative". It seems more the gameplay they're trying to create with it is the "innovation". The 'how many ice cubes are in your controller' minigames I couldn't care about in the slightest. It's a nice feature, but it's not something I feel should have any affect on HOW we play, that just feels completely forced. |
Yeah, it's a sustaining innovation (like improved CPU power, Blu-Ray compared to DVD or multitouch compared to resistive touchscreens). SI's are not inherently "innovative" as in game-changing, they just allow developers to create better / more immersive experiences and need the right software. So I guess you two guys actually agree with each other, you just talk about different kinds of innovation (sustaining vs disruptive).
