wii not doomed

the price difference is huge

i felt sick when i saw that guy play warhawk(looked hard to play also)
the wii-mote will feel just like a joystick for a flying game
yaazz
the revmote copying idea really takes away from nintendo's thunder, bold move by sony...
I wouldnt be surprised if there is a patent infringment court case or something

Perphaps not doomed but it will sell less than it could of sold if sony had not copied them. This could be the last console from nintendo.....

just like the dual shock, except no dual shock(runble) blink.gif

nintendo didnt take out patents i beleive

all they showed were videos of people moving around a remote. nothing else. so that whole movement sensing technology is an open market


(what would really be funny if the nex-gen consoles were sued for putting hdd's in consoles and not pc's biggrin.gif:D:D)

and indeed i will say this in my mind and on this post

500$ FOR BASIC?!!?!?!?!?!?

I wish nintendo takes them to court and wins. This is bull shit, remember the rumble pack for n64??sony copied it. I wonder what would of happened if nintendo had released that attatchment for the snes, possibly no ps3 huh?

I can't believe Sony had the cheek to say their new controller is innovative! Ignoring the obvious comparisons with the wii controller, MS released a sidewinder control pad for the PC years ago which had this functionality! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004Z729/103-96 55422-5521442?v=glance&n=172282

[Kindof unrelated]
Am I the only one how did not find the graphics THAT much better than the 360, in the games the showed!?
[/end unrelated]

Yeah, sony needs to stop copying people..
whiteblur67
heavenly sword's shadow effects were very nice
thats about it thou

some games made me sick to watch
xsirxx
I found the graphics to be quite poor. Even on the 360 launch it seemed the games were a bit more polished with graphics that show off the system. I found these games to be a bit "old" in technology. The only thing I took from the conference was that one hell of a controller, regardless of whos idea it was. I wish I had that controller on my 360.

Lastly 500$ means its not lil johnny's console anymore. But more for the college grad. Dont forget u hafta buy a HD tv to take the graphics to that level as well. +++++$
whiteblur67
i dont think that we are ever going to see a huge graphic jump again

such as the 64 to dreamcast jump

does anyone notice how strange it will be on the PS3 to play 7 controllers? ITS AN UNEVEN NUMBER! Thats driving me insane

Why 7? why not 8? I could see a 4 player split screen with 4 pairs of teams... but that would leave sum1 without a partner sad.gif.
juan_2006
yeah i wonder why 7??? Maybe the other one says the score or smthing???

Nintendo does have patents on their controller.

What sony has put into their controller is just a gyroscope, it is nothing like the Wii controller. All it can sense is tilting, not distance, direction, or anything else the Wii controller can sense.

It isn't fair to say that Sony's last minute rip-off attempt at answering Nintendo's revolutionary controller, is copying.
Sony's controller is just that, a last minute effort in Sony's part at attempting to steal Nintendo's idea.
But 6 degrees of motion sensing by no means is on the same level of what the Wii's controller can do.
Basically the controller isn't going to revolutionize game design but expect developers to use it as a gimmick for games that can otherwise play the same way in any console.

There used to be a PS Pad called the "AirPad" which worked using tilting, it was rubbish (esp for those who lean when playing games - you know who you are!)

I certainly hope they add the ability to turn that tilting crap off. If i wanted to sit up strait, with good posture and all, I would join the military. I want to play games, slouch and lean a bit. Damn would suck if my in game character is always leaning to one side or the other.

For the Warhawk demo they had last night, you had to hold down the R1 button to be able to use the tilt sensor, otherwise you could just use the joystick to control it. I'm sure thats what most games that even use this feature will have.

Their console is really expensive......i could probably get a 360 and wii for a bit more than the ps3's price..
