Tactile buttons are a necessity for any game that isn't as shallow as the kitchen sink. At least with current technology anyway.


Yep. This is obvious.

The fact that MS can sell so many kinects shows how easily the American market is seduced my Tv marketing. Everyone I know who has played kinect were never impressed by it at all. After playing it extensively with my nephews I know I will never buy one.


:ROLL EYES:

"Kinect only sells because stupid americans" - Yeah, thats why it has sold 5 mill outside the US.

"No one I know likes it." - So, No one I know likes Playstation, what does that matter?

"I played it with my nephews, i hatez it!!2!2!1"  - Your nephews probably only have Kinect adventures I bet.

 

Also, after looking at your posts you are obviously a sony fan, why are you in ms discussion?

 



Thankfully he won't have to lie to people like this anymore ;)

Peter doesn't know how to make an arcade game so I don't understand why he loves Kinect's controls so much.

We're just too primitive for Peter's amazing visions.

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

the 360 controller atm is the best control system for games... bashing them makes you look like a moron.
until virtual reality, keep the xbox controller.

EDGE – “Are videogames too violent?”

Molyneux – “Definitely not. If we banned violence we’d just end up doing what Nintendo do. You should always know that you’re killing someone.”

 

Whoa, what is this? Normally a comment like this would make me hate the person who said it, but Peter Molyneux is an exception. He had already reached rock bottom way before this offense.


Molyneux does what Nintendont.

‘No, you will do it this way, and if you don’t do it this way then wewill punish you’.”

“like some laboratory rat running around a maze, being forced to experience games in that way.”

 

uh.. didn't he just sum up Fable: The Journey in a nutshell? 



Yeah and motion controls are non-precise and childish...we all have opinions.



LOL

He's digging his own grave. I mildly liked the first Fable. It looked very good at least. The others were very, very bad experiences. I care as little about them as FF XIII. You're only as good as your last few projects Pete.



Controls are simply a means to allow a players actions transfer to the actual game. As long as it does that right, then they're fine IMO. It's the actual game that counts.
