I love everyone bashing motion controls because you can't play hardcore games on them. I wondered when gaming became all about being hardcore?
Everytime I see someone post a comment about it not being hardcore enough I am always reminded of the "EXTREME" guys from Harold and Kumar.
It's not about games having to be hardcore, but it's an appropriate defense. Take the Wii: It's (for lack of a better term) appropriate for nintendo because they arn't heavy on shooters or intense games. For the XBOX and PS3, which have a number of shooters and intense action games, the motion controls fall short. it alienates a niche in the market.
Flicking your wrist to walk with the connect for example... Can you imagine trying to run/strafe/jump/aim/fire/and turn around at the same time?
Sure it'll fit games like dancing games and sports games, but shooters, hack N'Slash, and a few other genres are gonna be laid aside should they decide to focus on this
