Forums - Sony - Report: Sony to Debut New (Motion-Sensing Controller)

I knew Nintendo winning a gen through a gimmick would fuck up the industry. With rumors of BOTH MS and Sony looking into this shit I must say I'm disappointed and a little fearful of where gaming is going. Are we just going to experience crappy casual titles flocking and flooding the industry while Hardcore Gamers get pushed aside so companies can get our grandparents gaming?

God, if Sony decides to go the gimmick route next gen then I'm sticking with MS and if MS does it as well then I might as well turn to PC gaming and if thats dying then maybe I need a new hobby.

 

PC gamers have been using pointing devices to play games for awhile now.. not to mention the flood of casual PC games. You should probably steer clear of PC gaming. :P

Sony will be fine and would have been more than fine if their system didn't cost as much as it does. They don't need stuff like this they should save all the money they can so they can drop their price faster. Sony and microsoft should stick to what they do best and leave the motion stuff to the wii.

1) Every home system uses rumble now even the last gen. Sony did their part with Immersion even if some other guy who backed out of the deal wants his share.

2) Once again everyone also uses analog sticks so is senseless. Sony was the first home system to make them vital to gaming though. MS did it better though I'll give them that.

3) All I can say was good job Sony on this one. Nintendo only had themselves to blame last two gens. The Nintendo has done a better job gaining back 3rd parties and Microsoft stole a lot from Sony but I congratulate them. That is how competition works.

4) Goldeneye was the shit on N64 and none (Bond games) has beat it since. So I give you this one lol.

5) Looking at Rare's success since Nintendo doesn't seem like much of a lose. Although I did enjoy Nuts and Bolts on the 360.

6) I'll beleive it when I see it. If and when it happens then this will truley be a stolen idea and I will completely agree with you.

Hasn't every company stole ideas of other companies at sometime. Not saying that iPhone was the creater of the touchscreen phone but since it's success for Apple everyone is copying touch screen phones now. Just an example and I'm not trying to go against you.

On the other hand I would've understood if the picture mentioned the whole Sony and Nintendo fiasco with the Playstation as stolen. Even then there is a thine line bending both ways on that situation.

That might get you banned. Don't insult the glorious PS3.

 

 

 

How does a picture get you banned? Besides...it speaks the truth.

 

The problem is that those claims could be leveled against a certain other company:

 

Claims 1 and 2: so did MS.

Claim 3: MS wishes it could.

Claim 4: no idea wtf that means.

Claim 5: MS actually did.



this pic is too old.

Looks complicated and expensive...

So you have the same nightmares as me.

GoW or GT being "must" waggle games might lead me to leave gaming.

Those claims are not of this generation, not even last generation (only the rare and the "we are back" ones)

1- Nintendo was the first one to use rumble in the controls with the N64, even if everyone does it doesn't mean it's not a "copy"

2- Once again Nintendo was the first one to use analog sticks with the N64, look at the pictures of the first generation of PS1 controllers and then look at the second generation, do you see something different? And no, Sony didn't make them vital, i remember playing most of my PS1 games without the analog stick (there was a option of use it but i didn't like them much ), on the other hand most (if not all) of Nintendo games needed the use of the analog stick (mainly because of  the control form)

3- Yeah, i know that's how competition work but still just like how MS "stole" Sony exclusives, Sony did it in the PS days (i congratulate both, though.)

5- If i'm not wrong, that picture was crated when this gen was starting so Rare was still a great company back then.

Of course every company copies of others ideas, but lets say that when Sony joined the gaming division they weren't much of afraid being noticed as "copiers" because they did some obvious copying (like the analog stick)

I know! Gaming should only be enjoyed by males where we only shoot other males with six packs literally on thier asses because its fucking HARDCORE!

Im so fucking hardcore. It makes me sound tough.....hardcore. Everyone who plays games is a piece of shit if theyre not hardcore.

Im hardcore so you now everything should be for me a hardcore gamer. I dont want anything new I want my dual analog forever and I wanna see all the wrinkles and pimples on characters faces. Because pimples are hardcore.

Im hardcore and I dont like that other people are playing games because theyre not as hardcore as me.

If I see a ton females playing a game Im gonna stop because its not hardcore and gaming is ruined. The only thing that should ever exist is hardcore games. No one should be allowed to make a game if its not hardcore.



I like the idea and i hope its true only if it can play TPS/FPS the same way as the wiimote.
