Re: 6 degrees of motion
 
You guys complaining about the Nintendo fans, you don't think it's funny at all that the guys from Sony, during their conference, essentially said that the Nintendo Wiimote is a gimmick, then an hour and a half later revealed their new surprising version of the Wiimote was somehow not a gimmick?

Can you imagine a friend of yours doing that? If a friend of mine pulled some sleazy bs like that I'd laugh my ass off at him.

I don't even know how to argue this, it's so obvious that Sony deserves to be lampooned.

Jesus, I know some people are acting a little awkward in terms of posts about things like this but don't take your anger at me. Direct it at the ones your pissed at. I'm staying as nice as I can and looking at the entire perspective.

I watched the conference, I didn't hear anything about the Wii being a gimmick.

Of course you didn't, psychodynamically.

Ok, now, I'm quoting here...

"We're not about cutting corners to rush a product to market, and we're certainly not interested in gimmicks, clever rhetoric, or conventional thinking."

ie. Microsoft, and Nintendo.

how was I being angry? you're the one saying 'Jesus'

my point about Apple was a reference to the topic at hand...a contribution to the forum, if you will. it had NOTHING to do with success or failure...I assumed that your reference had to do with "well companies can copy but they have proven not to succeed"

because that, y'know, would have actually meant something...

Hahahaha... nice. I'm not sure why Ridge Racer being repeated like that is so funny. That voice he has...

And I only watched the first five minutes of the conference.

No, I own Kirbys Tilt and Tumble(great game, BTW) and I can assure you that it detects slant ways tilts as well. The Playstation controller is absolutley nothing more that Kirby was. When you really think about it Sony didnt really copy Nintendo, because the Wii's controller can do so much more
