I havent played the game yet, so I'm not gonna say anything about Assasins Creed in terms of how it plays or how it is next gen. (If any of you have played it, send me a message please)
Ok, seriously. If Wii sports motion control is so next gen, and it simulates Tennis, bowling, boxing, and anything else on that game so well. If you think it 'simulates' your CRAZY!!!

I can bowl with the flick of my wrist, I can play tennis, with the Wiimote in my mouth, and WIN. Seriously? That's simulation? Ok.

I love tennis, and I really enjoy bowling. Wii Sports does not feel in the LEAST bit like a 'simulator' which is what it's meant to do? Isnt it? If it's NOT a simulator... Then it's just another... game, with a diffrent interface. On a serious standpoint, if it is just a diffrent controller method, that is like the diffrence from Dual Shock2, VS Six Axis.

I'm sorry but I dont understand why 'motion' controlls mean so much. I think digital control to analog was a bigger leap than the 'motion' control they have today. Maybe the next gen motion control will allow for simulation of sports, and stuff, but this gen, it's nothing more than a diffrent type of analog stick to me. If the system was as advanced as you guys seem to make it, yes, I would be impressed. But to me all it is, is a analog stick based off tilt, and a button based accelerometer. Overall nothing special for me.

You should think a bit better before posting. You should also study some mathematical logic to set up your arguments a bit better. I've been reading this forum for a while and you do this just too much.

From wikipedia(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy): "A fallacy is a component of an argument that is demonstrably flawed in its logic or form, thus rendering the argument invalid in whole."

Let's look at your statement: "If Wii sports motion control is so next gen, and it simulates Tennis, bowling, boxing, and anything else on that game so well."

Who said it is trying to simulate these sports? I guess you are the only one who thinks that, since you are the one to brought this up. Then comes your next statement: "If you think it 'simulates' your CRAZY!!!" Owned by your own arguments?

Wow Kwaad.  I agree with rubido.  When I read what you wrote, I couldn't believe how you just argued a point, that you are the first person I've ever seen bring up.  Who's EVER said Wii Sports was a simulator?  And then you say that it's a game, with a different interface?  Well thank you for agreeing with exactly what anyone else has ever said about it.

 Now as to the capability of the Wiimote to 'simulate', since that seems to be what you want I guess.  That totally depends on the developers.  As I've said before, everyone should play Elebits.  The game itself is ok, I would just rent it, but the interactivity blows me away.  I hope that kind of control scheme gets used in more games, and more types of games.

Edit: On Topic now, heh.  I'm dying to get my hands on Assassin's Creed.  It's one of the games I'm most looking forward to.
