What in the name of all that's holy is that thing? Is it a torture device to punish the Move for ripping off the Wii? Is it a controller? The guy who wrote the article wisely pointed out the similarities with this thing Forza 4 expected you to buy, but the guys in the comments below immediately suggested... other uses for the contraption (which involve removing the Move).I'm at a loss for words, I guess.

Either it's a new racing controller or a new controller for the PS4? That's what I'm feeling it could be...

It's official: Nintendo is SATAN'S LEFT FU*KING NUT. They've fu*ked everyone's brains. Just stuck it right in the ear canals and pistoned away until nothing was left but brain paste. Look at what they've done to Sony and Microsoft, man. It's a goddamn crying shame.

It's like a fart in an elevator that has somehow remained remarkably potent for three days after someone let it. It's both impressive and disturbing. I hear the music from The Omen every time I see a new and awful motion device.

I'm convinced that most of these technology companies outsource their designs to 10 year old boys.

It looks like the old boomerang controller with a move attachment, which basically makes it the worst thing.

Awful aesthetics aside, it just looks like a more convoluted way to get a motion controller that you use in the same manner as the sixaxis. So kind of pointless I guess.

It's official: Nintendo is SATAN'S LEFT FU*KING NUT. They've fu*ked everyone's brains. Just stuck it right in the ear canals and pistoned away until nothing was left but brain paste. Look at what they've done to Sony and Microsoft, man. It's a goddamn crying shame.

:lol: You have got to be kidding me. It's not Nintendo's fault if Sony and Microsoft only ripped their bad aspects off: if they had copied the motion controls into games like Zelda, Metroid Prime, Goldeneye 007, Red Steel 2 or Super Mario Galaxy 2 - instead of Kinect Star Wars or the 3.5 Move sports game - you wouldn't have to complaint.

Nintendo did it right, don't blame them if the other two companies didn't.

The Playstation move version of the Wii Wheel? A bit late controller add on do really sell well. Sony would be best to cancel this.
