Forums - Nintendo - EA Confirms MotionPlus Support for Dead Space Extraction

Electronic Arts COO John Pleasants today mentioned that “Dead Space Extraction,” a Wii-exclusive rail-shooter prequel to the survival-horror original, will support the gyroscopic Wii MotionPlus peripheral when the game debuts in fall 2009.

At the 2009 Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference in San Francisco, details about how MotionPlus would be integrated were not available; Pleasants merely told attendees that the new “Dead Space” title would be “taking advantage of the MotionPlus controller,” and that the title would include zero-G dismemberment.

Earlier today, EA announced that “Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10″ and “EA SPORTS Grand Slam Tennis” would also use Nintendo’s MotionPlus accessory.

It's easy, the use of M+ will help move the screen.
You move the pointer with the IR and move around with the gyroscope.

Sweetness. Can't wait til E3 where all these devs start showing us how they'll be using motionplus.



I'm curious to see how a light gun game can use the ultra-precise motion controls.

@TomaTito: What do you mean by move around?

Change the nunchuck from UC, into M+ in Extraction.
Although now that I think about it, it could end up messy.

Apparently there is more than meets the eye when it comes to Dead Space: Extraction.

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how WM+ can enhance the gameplay elements. Can't wait!



nice, now i'm interested! : )



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

Why would they need motion plus for a light gun game? They'd better make use of this technology which means that it should not control like other light gun games, House of Dead: Overkill and Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, or else this is a ploy to get people to buy the game, a marketing tactic.



If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba

 

I can never understand how better gyroscopes can help IR pointing. Can someone explain?



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?
