it looks an awesome example for jhonny lee's idea.

Smart move from Sony, now more PS3 owners will be halfway ready to use the upcoming motion controls.



My Mario Kart Wii friend code: 2707-1866-0957

whats interesting is that they have rendered the inside of the car to make this possible



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

Looks interesting... but only if it allows you to see more... otherwise it is just another gimmick...



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

Thats pretty cool. Finally my PS eye will be useful!

That doesn't really explain it. Is it possible that this isn't an in-game feature, but maybe an unlockable reward? I don't see how it would be useful in a race.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

nice to see it implemented even if it's not as he's done it with the wiimote :p

 

Though the fact remains that it's just dumb to do this in a racing game.... it really serves no purpose and will be way less practical than using the right analog stick.



OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

it cant be more then little turn or your not going to be looking at the screen anymore but the wall next to it

It is not stupid.  Google Track IR, it may help you understand.

it is

 

in ts current form

 

now if you were wearing these

 

 

so its head tracking would display in these what you would see that would be awesome

 

right now i move my head but have to keep my eyes locked on the screen---that is silly

Like how the Wiimote is a gimmick when it allows for greater immersion?

Honestly, this sounds like something that would be really fun to play with, even if it doesn't add to the gameplay. Of course if it means that it's slightly easier to look in the mirrors or whatever, then that's even better.

it's probably sensistive enough that you don't have to move your head that much
