que?
instead of leveraging your bigger library of games, or your superior online service or any of the original IP exclusives on the console, you elect to churn out non sense and garbage aimed at the fringe element of your demographics.

Stupid idea, stupid execution, and truthfully, you’re about 2 years too late MS.

Donkeys…..

My first impression?

Gimmick - defined as:

An ingenious or novel device, scheme, or stratagem, esp. one designed to attract attention or increase appeal.

I will never buy one.

I love how Shitty Cock can ignore all the available facts in order to come up with a line that in his mind alone doesn’t make him look like a raving fucking arsehole.

So sony were first with the motion sensor were they? Put it in to great use did they? Employ it in all there games do they? Or are MS perhaps copying a more sucessful version of the whole motion sensor gimmik with the Nintendo Wii.

You fucking wally.

What? You think Microsoft didn’t endorse this? You think they didn’t throw money into Research and Developement? I’m sure there were other third party companies, this is the one that came out with the best design.

“finally a reality thanks to a company called PDP”

So rather than rant at Microsoft, try actually reading the article.

I probably would be likely to buy this only if it works really well. My main usage would be driving games really unless it works with CoD! who knows

Based in Yokneam, just south of the Israeli city of Haifa, 3DV has developed a 3D depth camera that apparently offers a greater degree of visual accuracy than the current Xbox Live Vision Camera and PlayStation 3 EyeToy. Targeting the application of the so-called ‘ZCam’ in video games on the 3DV Systems’ website suggests that if Microsoft’s $35 million attempt to acquire the company was successful, it would be utilised to create more successful ’social’ games on Xbox 360 that can compete with Wii.

Isn’t there some motion sensor camera coming out for the 360? I swear I saw something about it in my GameInformer magazine a few weeks back? It’s made by some indian company and it supposed to track all movement w/o making the gamer hold a controller…

Anyone have any clue what I’m talking about? (I don’t!)

I sold my Wii. Put this thing out with a good bowling game and I’ll not have to buy another Wii at some point to make my wife happy.

Agreed.

Except that this is a third party controller, so your argument is invalid.

What a shame that they’d give up preferential treatment for their two biggest platforms. Well, at least all five of the PS3 players will enjoy themselves.

I think engouh people brought enough wiis that they decided to go after the PS3. However, that’s in Japan. You don’t live in Japan. Face reality, PS3 will always be third place, and no proPS3 news will convince anyone otherwise.

Okay now this is another blatant rip off from Nintendo’s Wii.

Obviously we know where the Avatars idea came from but in comparison, the 360 avatars look better.

I know what Microsoft is thinking, “We are contiunually being pummeled in sales by the Wii, we have to compete!”
Some other guy probably said “But we sell the most games of any system and have the largest Internet Multiplayer User base, we’re winning in software sales.”
And another guy smacked the second guy.

I will NOT be buying this, it’s my vote against encouraging more blatant ripoffs. I want to play great games on a great system, not play niche titles.
