Capcom Europe head, and former Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Boss, David Reeves, has come out in an interview and stated that motion control is more than just a passing fad. He believes that it will be a focal point for the PS4, in a more evolved form than what is currently on offer.

The Tencent subsidiary said its new framework will prioritize 'strong visual identity and art direction over sheer graphical fidelity.'
Ben Porter from Newzoo explains that the player base has very little overlap with mainstream hits such as Assassin's Creed: Shadows and Ghost of Yōtei
"Players kick back at AI that is taking away from creativity. But when AI is used to power totally new types of interactive experience, then it’s a very different story"
Well Microsoft is about to blow people shoes off. AI is apparently something they have poured funds into over the last few years which has them sitting at the top of AI Olympus. It’s even a part of the military drones I think. If AI takes over, Microsoft will be ready. For better or worse.
Doubt it. While I've also thought NPC interactions could be fantastic with genAI and literally adopt unique personas, quite a few of today's gamers are Gen Z, and I don't think they're too keen on AI, especially as they're graduating into a market where entry level jobs don't exist anymore.
As a semi-elder millennial, I tend to like Gen Z because they stand on business more than my generation. Do I think they would actively boycott and push the data centers out of their towns and such? Absolutely.
It's more of a failure of games media not understanding research than a research institution making such a sweeping statement with a limited sample size and no indication of ages, background etc. Study was conducted by a university collaborating with a developer, and, as a researcher myself, I take serious issue with academics doing research because they tend to publish from convenience samples at universities offering course credit for their participation (so really, who is this data supposed to generalize to?).
But the 90% claim is just silly.
...this makes me sad .I hate motion controls so much.
Probably with the new "gyrosphere" patent Sony file

i hate david reeves since he may have something to do with Shit Theory getting their hands on DMC and pissing all over dante and the DMC brand!
Mr Reeves, stop contemplating about the future of motion gaming and go clean the shit from your doorstep a.k.a Ninja Theory and the next PR statement you make, make it count for some good by announcing that someone more reliable and more modest i.e. platinum games has taken the DMC game and will be finally creating a DMC game which is worthy to stand up against DMC1.
i don't think motion will be that big for next gen,Nintendo themselves will move on to something else i bet. probably just an add on.
Let's hope that Sony can come up with something a little more advanced than a lightbulb on a stick then for the PS4.
