Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

I think this is the most important thing that people forget about US government. Moses didn't come down Mt Rushmore with the Bill of Rights on a tablet from God.
So I'm not sure yet how this is much different than the Wii controllers.
The big glowing ball on the end of it.
That, and the way he is holding the glowy ball controller is the only difference. I mean, other than that, it looks like the black version of the Wii control to me.
The game itself actually looks like it could be alot of fun though.

What's with these digs at Microsoft? I can understand it if Sony were trying something remarkably different out, but they're not. They're deliberately trying to intrude into the Wii market via a plagerised device. Ergo, you have no room for these cheeky statements at Microsoft. At least they've tried something different in removing controllers altogether. All you've done Sony is copy a product.

Huh.
MS, take notes.

Now IP? Good.
Cliché story? Less impressive.
Hang on, since when did two control systems require two full games?
