Man, that new controller sure looks like a _____.

They certainly one-upped Nintendo in that.

Finally we have an interface for RTSs on a console. Thank god, we didn't have that before...

[BlackNMild2k1]

M+ just out M+d?

Where did I see archery before today?

[D_Average]

Wow that motion controller/camera looks sad. Natal/Motion Plus pwn it.

Not true.  Two of these would be perfect for Top Gun.  I've always wanted to be the lonely dude on the runway.

Er, you didn't. Sony blazes yet another trail!

[blackfootsteps]

Rolling / whoring.

[BlackNMild2k1]

I think this is more practical than what MS had to show.
Now they can do WiiSports too, but they won't be able to sell all the over priced peripherals to go with it.

ModNAtion Racing is the next title in the LBP-style user-created-focused content genre.

Well the archery thing looks nice. The thing is that this smells of failure all over it even if the general idea is practical when it comes to the future of games (Thanks to Nintendo for starting the ball rolling).

How do you figure?

[stevey]

If they couldn't get it work in they're demos, how is anyone going to get it to work at home...

Sony is still on their death march into the grave....

Mod Racers looks interesting.

Globe spheres on the end of the controller= INNOVATION

ModNAtion Racing is the next title in the LBP-style user-created-focused content genre.

Track creation is done simply by driving around to create it (elevation is controlled with right stick). Then you can use tools to add objects and alter the terrain. That's pretty neat.

[Deguello]

How do you figure?

I'd imagine since it requires not one, but 2 peripherals to even use, both of which don't come with the system.

No kidding.  Much easier than creating LBP levels.

Looks interesting, I want to know if you can put sheep on the track.

ICO Team!

[blackfootsteps]

ICO meets Nintendogs!

Sorry, I misread BNM's post.  I thought he was implying that this would be cheaper than Natal.

WOAH!! Dog-Ostrich-Monster-Buddy FTW!!

And with that, Sony wins, hands down.

[NovaQ]

The Last Guardian appears to be an interesting mix of ICO (castle-climbing puzzles with a CPU-controlled partner) and Shadow of the Colossus (fighting giant climbable bosses). You're (another) clumsy boy, but this time you work along with a giant pet bird-dog.

Yeah, it looks pretty ridiculous, but there's something about ICO Team's projects that I just can't turn down.
