Gyroscopes have been used by Nintendo since the GBC, Also WM came out before the Move. In the end Sony usually copies Nintendo however both do contribute to the evolution of the market. Eventually if its a good idea then the other two competitors will usually follow suit. Natural progression occurs like the jump to 3D and HD for example its only natural for all three competitors to go in these directions.

Just look at PSEye and Kinect, everyone knew camera's could be used in gaming it was only natural for the competition to use similiar technology. All be it Nintendo who doesn't like to release copied technologies. Then again who knows what Nintendo's next home console will have to make it unique.

Truffles, fillet, Madeira and foie gras already existed before Rossini, Madeira, foie gras and truffles were already combined together in other dishes, but it was only Rossini that combined them all with the fillet too and put them on a crouton in the "Tournedos à la Rossini"!   

BTW, I make decent tournedos... I ripped-off Sony, er, ehm, I meant Rossini!!!  =:-O

Hmm I think it is. But it should launch 4 years later and Nintendo needed to trash talk ps move and then rip it off.

Now it's only lacking the dildo appearance.

But it's a blatant rip off, yes sir u_u



It's no big deal.  Sure, Sony copied Nintendo but it's good for gamers so I'm not mad.  After all, Sony will be Sony.

None of you two ever drove very fast under the rain I guess. Over a given speed, depending also on the windscreen shape and angle, the force of the air, going upwards and backwards along the windscreen, exceeds gravity... Yes, when I was younger I was quite mad, but, hey, traffic was a lot less chaotic.

you don't really have to go that fast. You just need to do about 1mph through a automatic car wash with high power fans to dry your car...

Obviously polyphony digital copied car washes
