]]> Comment on Thoughts on the Divergent Path of Motion Gaming by Meeks http://www.midnightechoes.com/2010/11/13/quick-thoughts-on-the-divergent-path-of-motion-gaming/#comment-3 Meeks Tue, 16 Nov 2010 06:43:13 +0000 http://www.stan.glowingnights.net/?p=305#comment-3 I can agree with everything said, except of course, for a few points. I like the idea of Kinect. I like the idea of the Move. Having played both, I feel as though they should coexist as one entity. I love having a controller sometimes, and the other times, not having one. Some games just need a controller, in my opinion, even if it's for motion. But I still have a slight bias against the Kinect though, because it angers me, that a decade later, this technology is still shit; stiff and unresponsive as it was over 10+ years ago. I'm not speaking of the PS Eye; no, when I was younger I went to the arcade and they had a machine there, where you would play a fighting game by standing in a circle, in front of a sensor and it would detect your movements. Throw a punch, and your character did, etc. It was exactly what the Kinect is now. I understand they are two different items, from two different times, but trust me when I say this: They play <i>exactly</i> the same. I'll give it a chance of course, and wait a bit for some more worthwhile games to come out and see if it's just these launch titles that are lackluster, and not the machine itself.
