Guy playing HL2 Deathmatch with a one-handed Playstation controller and a Gyration mouse. (No, the mouse can't detect where in 3D space it is, but it can most certainly use tilting and such.)

Anyway, just wanted to point this out for those of you who are like me and want to see what it'll look like when it's in action.  
i haven't used this in years why is it the second result when you search my name asdfadsfasfa

wow, that is really cool.  One thing he mentioned was that his hand shook some, I think nintendo might compensate for this (its already done for video cameras)  I dont know if I like that he said it would take a while to get used to, hopefully that is not true of the rev controller, since ninty is aiming for the "pick up and play" market.

For a set-up obviously not meant for that game, and that game not tailored to that set-up, I thought he did pretty well.  Seems promising.

I tried out the DS with half a PS2-clone controller, a Wacom and UT2004.

The shakiness probably has to do with the sensitivity of a mouse. If you move your mouse 1/8 of an inch it moves the cursor. I imagine the rev will compensate for this.
