wat?

So you're telling me you don't "really" like the Wii because of the controller, not the games (I'm guessing the same result would happen with the PS4 here)? I thought games were the important part.

If the PS4 gets Wii-like controls, it won't change a thing unless they implement it really badly.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I'd have to put some serious thought into it, I just don't particularly like motion controls. Honestly if it's a choice between swinging and pressing a button, I'll take pressing the button every time.

Perhaps if that happenned I'd give the next Xbox serious consideration for my primary gaming machine.



...

It depends. Not all games work better with motion controls. As long as they gave alternative control schemes and didn'y force developers to make their games motion control based I would probably still by it.

I like Sony's approach with the PS3 controller and games. It can add variety to the game with motion based segments in a game, but they don't over do it.



Personally, I wouldn't be surprised if the next generation was entirely camera-based.



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

I think they will keep the controller similar, they might have something seperate to buy though like what the eye toy is like.



When I first thought of PS3 getting motion controls back in early 2007 based on the success of the Wii I thought it was inevitable for all consoles to add more motion controls to their next systems. Today there are many reports of MS & Sony preparing improved motion controls to their next gen systems.

While the Six-axis hasn't provided me with any great uses on motion I'm a believer that they could further improve motion controls in some regards. Like on the Wii I did enjoy Wii sports, particularly Wii tennis when I first played it. Definitely a simple and easily accessible use of motion that even my grandmother could play. But I really hope in the next generation they will keep the option of having regular controls for more complicated games that motion could be too confusing, tiring or gimmicky. Waggle to me is an good example of a motion gimmick. Meanwhile swinging your arm pretending the controller is a tennis racket is a perfectly natural movement for playing the sport and an excellent use of motion controls.

However, personally I would still rather relax on a couch when playing videogames. To answer your question I would buy the PS4 as long as it still offered regular controls.



I will buy it because I LOVE Sony 1st party games

plus kojima-Han and Nomura-san are Sony fanboys(LOL)

I honestly do not like the motion controls that much. An updated dualshock would be great. Maybe fix the triggers and change the angle of the drips slightly. I still ove the dualshock and think it is a great controller.
