I hope it works out half as well as they are showing. http://e3.g4tv.com/videos/38633/Microsoft-...tal-at-E3-2009/ Discuss you thoughts on it.

If they plan to make FPS or racing games for this kind of technology a good response time and accuracy is key and from what I could see there is a noticeable lag, not big but still...

Back on topic - I have a wii played with it for about 20 hours total, it now collects mucho dusto. If I really wanted to be that involved in a game I would go outside and play tackle football with some little kids and plow through them like the whiny brats that they are, then spike the ball and celebrate like I won the superbowl.

(I'm a PS3 guy, but they're doing the same) am i the only one that didn't understand this bit? anyway for some games, if this technology is advanced further it could be pretty cool, eventually reaching virtual reality or a holodeck This post has been edited by Servatis: 4 Jun, 2009 - 02:02 AM
