I think you should be worrying about getting a new keyboard first.

That looks amazing but it's got the Wii lag hasn't it? That's what puts me off these motion systems.

Looks alright, but doubt i'll be in any rush to buy one. the whole motion system thing, like running to make your character run feels all like a bit of a gimmick to me, or parties where you can all just have a laugh.
for games you want to get really into and play for hours on end it's just not much fun.

Yeah, not into that whole thing at all either. But when I saw the Wiimote and the Nunchuck or whatever it's called, I thought it could potentially be a replacement for mouse and keyboard gaming. But it wasn't accurate or fast enough. Now if they can make this so that i can wave my left hand around and point with my right in FPS game with the speed of the wireless controller, I'd be sold!

Makes me think of the things they do with their fingers in Minority Report to t you control the screens if anyone can remember that film, was a while ago now. But i know what you mean, i think that would be pretty cool too.
as for me i like the controllers most consoles have nowadays, the idea of actually having to mess about with a gun shaped controller has never appealed to me, or all the silly stuff you do with the Wii, although fun in a social situation. locking myself away for a few hours to kills some n00bz! I prefer the standard approach

have a look at the sony presentation at E3. It's a lot more impressive and there seems to be little to no lag. Just no games incorporating it yet.

Did anyone notice what I was trying to point you towards, in the thread title and the capitalised letters of the first post. Its quite amusing

Wow your a genius. You know this was announced on Monday and this is Saturday...


I think it looks cool, but like the wii, a novelty, I'd only only get it to replace the vision cam and scan content in.
