E3 ’09 Microsoft’s Project Natal vs. Sony’s Eyetoy Motion Controller

Jeremy — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 00:29:13 +0000

If anyone was still unconvinced that motion control was the future of gaming, there can be no question now after it was the star of the show at all three press conferences at E3 2009. And while Nintendo brought the idea to the forefront first in most gamers' minds, the fact is that Sony did it first on a much smaller scale with the original EyeToy. And while Nintendo tried to market their Wiimote add-on Motion Plus at E3 as the next step forward in waggle gaming, Microsoft and Sony smashed their hopes with ambitious plans of their own. So now the question that will be debated long into the foreseeable future is which of the two technologies reigns supreme. We'll try to answer that question as best it can be with what little we've seen of both so far.

E3 ’09 to Bring Motion Controls to the Xbox 360 and PS3 At Last? No, really!

E3 is here again! The excitement as usual is unbearable, what-oh-what will be revealed this year. We find it interesting that so little is known about any big announcements expected this year from anyone. Does this mean that there will be surprises of a major scale from all parties? A new Mario from Nintendo perhaps? Let's revisit a rumor that we have been following closely for quite some time now that just doesn't go away...motion controlled gameplay on true next-gen consoles! The month of May has been blowing up with new information that leads us to believe (yet again) that it will finally be revealed this year. Follow along to see what the buzz is all about.
