Yeah, frist reply pretty much said it all. No. Touch screen is not superior to mouse and keybaord in any way, shape or form. Adn just from an effort/kinetic point of view, it looks like it would become old, veyr quick.

Stupidity.

Moving hand 2 feet is apparently "easier" than moving your mouse 2 inches.

These are the same people that think waving your hands around like a dork is better than twitching your controller stick 2 millimeters.

I used to think all stupid ideas came from Sony but then I learned it was universal.

Great for air hockey, if your PC is sitting in the middle of the room. Not so sure it's such a good idea for any serious gaming. You'd need to stand up to play and then you have to lean over the screen while playing, not exactly the best position in terms of posture, unless back pain is your thing.

Lot's of people will get sucked in by this gimmick but it's about as clever and useful as a touch screen desktop....oh wait! :P

I suspect the market for this is pretty small.

Well some people find touchscreens easier than using a mouse and keyboard, so I imagine the games would be geared toward these folk. FeedOnATreeFrog

Someone can't learn the complications of a mouse and keyboard and you expect them to put up a fight in a strategy game? Most strategy games are rather complex.

And lack of hotkeys = no go.

It'll be laughed at just like Halo Wars was.

Doubt it. Look at the lag between the players puck and the puck on the screen.
