Crazy new Xbox control system!

It looks mental, but the article attached sums up a lot of my feelings about it!

I'm also quite dubious about how it would work in real life!

Microsoft have sooo raised the bar with this. When I was watching the conference live, there was loads of people basically clapping and cheering how good it sounded. Then at Nintendos there was no claps apart from Mario games.

Just waiting for the Sony one.

Hmmm, looks like PS3 have their own motion controller thingys.


It's not as impressive as the Microsoft one, but looks like it definitely works.

It looks like this one is better tbh, Microsofts one seems to good to be true although they showed it working. Dunno bout you lot but I think Nintendo are fucked with the Wii LOLLLL
I like PS3 one alot more though because of the awesome shuriken bit haha and sword and shield.

I have yet to see the NATAL engine working ( funny obs.: in my country Natal= christmas ) , But the ps3 one looked pretty tight

ive been an xbox fan ever since there original huge ass controlers, the one controller that didnt cramp my long fingers, the xbox does look really badass and this is coming from someone who is firmly against the idea of accualy having to get off ur ass to play a game but as metal said this is microsoft so they are gonna fuck it up its just that simple, as for the wii and nintendo they have only been holding on due to the fact that everything is cheap in comparison to the xbox and ps3 (bout half the price here in canada) which in a time of recession makes it very apealing to younger gamers and broke jokes alike. with that said we will have to endure more kiddie games from them for years to come i think. and as for mario where the fuck is my mario pong its aboot the only sport ripoff they havnt done yet

tony hawk blasted it saying its not accurate enough, tho tbh if you're gonna stand there and pretend to ollie and whatnot, why not just go outside with a real skateboard?

plus remember all the beef with people punching friends in the face with the wii remote and smashing their $3000 tvs? it'll be much worse if you've got people trying to be all bruce lee trying to dragon kick the bad guy on the telly. and while the wii remote [and this natel] seemed like a good idea at the start it just got reduced to waggle, which to me seems to be dying out. wii motion plus [which is out next week] is what the wii needed from the start, tho why MS and sony are still playing catch up to plain ole regular wii motion is beyond me

Well, to be fair, it looks likes the PS3 version will have accuracy and responsiveness beyond the new wii add on.

Chances are I'll get the new wii thing anyway, and then when the PS3 one comes out, I'll see if there are any games worth getting.
Like, surely they could come up with a decent multiplayer sword and shield game, and I'd happily pay for a PS3 remote thingy dungeon crawler or something, it would be great!
