It's amusing that the only people who are seriously supporting the whole new motion control thing are fanboys who only have one console, and are actually supporting a company and not a product, choosing either Microsoft's Kinnect ( Or whatever it's called ) and Sony's Playstation Move. It is truly sad when young and impressionable minds are brainwashed by games coperations to blindly support their products with a sort of religious devotion when really REAL gamers don't give a shit about who the products are coming from, all that matters to them is the products themselves. It's why Activision have managed to get away with selling the same game three times, and possibly a fourth with Black Ops on its way. Anyway getting back to the "point", motion control is a gimmick. Will hardcore gamers, whom are the majority of people playing the 360 and PS3 want to frail around their rooms like retards getting no where as close as accurate results as simply playing with controllers? Of course not, so after the motion controllers get over their gimmick stage in which the only people buying them are casual gamers, ( who buy the way all have wiis now anyway ) they will lost popularity, if they even have any at the begining and fall into the dark depths of obscurity.
Here's a first look at the world map featured in Pearl Abyss' massive open-world action-adventure game, Crimson Desert.
Remedy recently shared more details on its upcoming sequel, Control Resonant.
MOUSE: P.I. for Hire is an upcoming first person shooter with the aesthetics of a classic 1930s black and white cartoon.
Good point
It's interesting that your the only person who has commented on any of my posts yet, I suppose that's down to the general lack of interest in blogs. Hell even the approved ones struggle to reach ten comments.
I don't give a shit either.
And ya, no one seems to care about blogs on N4G, which is why I stopped after making my first. Maybe in the future I'll do one again.
i've been playing for almost 25 years so i'd consider myself a hardcore REAL gamer (casuals didn't buy 3DO, jaguar, virtual boy, 32x and saturn at lauch like i did :P).
the brand loyalty is as predictable as the day is long, it's to be expected. considering how many titles are bombing and studios are closing these days, the concept of "real" gamers is frankly bullshit. you're all buying the same exact games all the casuals are. not everybody who bought RDR or bad company is a "hardcore" gamer. i see the boards, every freakin excuse under the sun is made to not support "hardcore" games-"no online=no buy, too short, no replay, not AAA" etc. i take the concept of 'core gamers keeping the industry alive with a grain of salt.
know who buys games? the casuals. they think AAA is the automotive service but they buy games. who can blame them for going where the $ is? the "omfg hardcore" gamers certainly aren't spending any money.
these motion controllers are the industries life-support because you guys just ain't payin' the bills anymore. aiming everything at us is a dead end. this is the future of gaming so either accept it find another hobby. you don't get something for nothing. you demand cutting edge graphics, physics, online play etc but the $ for it doesn't come from thin air yet people bitch about $60 price tags and dlc. you want bigger, faster, better and frankly keeping up with your demands is bankrupting the industry.
if you don't like casuals infecting the industry the only people you have to blame for it are yourselves. stop putting unreasonable demands on developers to cater to your every graphics whoring whim, then maybe development costs could come down and they'd actually make a profit from hardcore gamers.
When it comes down to business I think the majority of people who are in here defending Kinect or Move won't be getting either one. I know I won't be getting Kinect(360 owner). There are too many games coming out that I'd rather spend my money on. At the same time it doesn't make any sense to rule them out completely when neither of them have been released.
