yes we know this......but sony came up with some form of motion control....they dont apply it...and when they do...they dont apply it well....and when the news of the PS3 eyecam ability broke out...all I heard was cows praising it and putting it in sheeps faces....and nobody said "virtual boy /thread"

You know what I see when I read that? "Boohoo, we're so persecuted!" I consider anything like this underwhelming and frankly some of you trying to push this as the second coming annoy me.

first off, im not pushing this as the second coming....so you can be at rest fanboy.....i mean what are you afraid of and are so inflamed about....I was waaaay more inflamed about the concept of the wii before it came out...and guess what...it has been a hit....so maybe this could develope into something interesting but nothing as changing as the wiimote is and has been

so if you are annoyed than dont worry....you probably wont have to deal with it since you probably dont own a wii anyways

this again...geez...im sure that who ever impliments it would have a pragmatic vision of its use so...you probably wouldnt be required to do so....besides do you own a wii.....because if you are so against motion conrol then maybe the wii isnt for you.

You didn't have to "stand up and wave your arms" for a gaming session before. :| It's fairly obvious that you haven't played the Wii to any real extent. Go away.

TrackIR says "welcome to 2006"WARxSnake
Tracker IR costs hundreds of dollars and is designated for seldom few PC titles. Head Tracking on the Wii can be brought to the mainstream using existing Wii technology and cost the price of the glasses...15$ and be packed in with games

[QUOTE="river_rat3117"]well i dont think there would be any ownage or damage conltrol had every one known that THE PS3 CAN DO IT WITH THE EYECAM. they were able to do it once they found out the wii could, and worked on it right away. and no im not finding a link for you, if you care that much find it yourselfanasbouzid

yes we know this......but sony came up with some form of motion control....they dont apply it...and when they do...they dont apply it well....and when the news of the PS3 eyecam ability broke out...all I heard was cows praising it and putting it in sheeps faces....and nobody said "virtual boy /thread"

Actually that's entirely untrue, the eyecam is not capable of headtracking in its current form, and even if Sony were to release a modified product where they could attempt to replicate it, it would be much more costly as head tracking uses existing Wii technology, not to mention that head tracking is essentially useless with the sixaxis, What would be the use of 3D headtracking if you have to use a traditional 2D analog gamepad? That would give you realistic head movement while your hands would stay stationary. LAME

Actually the console war was over the day the Wii launched but this is just the final nail in the coffin.

Lmao you think only one game is going to use this? Spielburg is going to bring it to the mainstream and then devs will be jumping all over it, like the WiiFit Balance board for instance which already has 10 games in development.

This is what gaming is about. Interaction and further increasing a person's involvement in the game.

Why are all the 12 year old children crying about his? All the 360 and PS3 fanboys rave about graphics, but what's the point of better graphics, to increase your involvement in the game. Nintendo is just doing it in different and better ways. Graphics always get old.

Also, i'm not surprised all the socially inept 360 players are downplaying how great this is. Why have fun when you can sit in a room by yourself for 12 hours playing the same FPS over and over while talking with other 12 year olds online. That's real gaming right?
