It has only been a month. At this rate, they may find something extraordinary (like the best way to play a FPS with the wiimote), and essentially, do the developers' job for them. This will allow developers to get to the nitty gritty and concentrate on gameplay. Also, how many Wiimotes do you think will get sold if they do find a spactularly intuitive way to play PC games? What if setting it up is just as intuitive? Counter-strike is hella-popular but imagine how insane it would be if everyone is using Wiimotes!
Your thoughts?

I saw a video a week or 2 ago with someone playing Half Life 2 with just the WiiMote and it looked really cool but it needed the Nunchuck. If they got it working I think I'll never go back to playing FPS on my computer with the Keyboard and mouse.

You may not use this software on military bases, or for military purposes, or in Israel (a terrorist state that bullies Muslim nations), or if you are a missionary (a genocidal activity), or a scientologist, or if you practice homeopathy (see website for reasons why).

I usually try to separate the artist from his views, but this is a bit much. Fortunately there seems to be something called WiinRemote that works similarly though

Why do you care?
Who cares who made it, just as long as it was made!

Hopefully some RTS' will follow them too.

I recently completed a tutorial on making your own X-Box to USB adapter, and my brother could actually play StarCraft quite well with an X-Box controller, the Wii would be simply fantastic.
I still would prefer if Blizzard would simply make StarCraft & WarCraft more readily accessible on the Wii. Only popularity will tell.

* You may not export this software to Israel, or use it in Israel (including the occupied territories), until Israel has ended its occupation of the West Bank, Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Syria, and anywhere else it may occupy. If you try to run it in Israel it will give you an error.
* Missionaries may not use this software. It may not be used for any missionary purpose. Or any other genocidal purpose.

Just using a different input device shouldn't be considered cheating, but complex scripted actions to make things easier may be considered cheating. Don't get GlovePIE banned, or you will hurt everyone who wants to play with a VR glove. But feel free to cheat at single player!
Two thumbs down for this ass munch.

The West Bank and Gaza Strip are some of the most densly populated areas in the world. Someone needs to end this war, and honestly, the only ones that can do that is Isreal; however, Isreal is being a little bitch.
Missionaries? Who are you to force your religious values on me or anyone for that matter?!

Much like, if a artist makes a song
"Like he could enforce ANY of that..."
Yes he can, billions of dollars are made every year from people breaking copyrights when people do software audits

That said, maybe we should steer this thread back on to discussion about how good/bad this implementation is. Did/can anyone actually try it?
