I can't wait! So much for Tony Hawk's game, that's just bad timing.

ALL OF THESE WOULD BE A LOT BETTER WITH THE PS3 MOTION CONTROLLER!!!

FPS: if u hav access to an analog stick (which they may/may not hav on the ps3mote, i havent seen it) then u can hav an actual real fps game with it. plus, if you duck behind the chair, it could look like a melee, which would cause soo much frustration.

RTS: say you're about to tell a couple tanks where to go on the battlefield. How would u select those tanks? without an onscreen cursor, how would you know exactly where you're pointing? also, HOW WOULD THE GAME KNOW IF U ARE JUST NAVIGATING THE MAP, GROUPING PEOPLE, OR GIVING THEM DIRECTIONS??? u need buttons to toggle different settings/modes.

U DONT NEED A FULL-BLOWN CONTROLLER, BUT U NEED SOME SORT OF BUTTON INTERACTION!!!

I don't mean to be that guy but you really just used Halo Wars for hand gesture controls?! Why not use a screenshot to a game that needs good controls like Supreme Commander or Stormrise. That said I would love to control a game like a Black and White big hand hehe.

hey unorignal, this may have been the wrong article but that would still be awesome. Mario Kart would be perfect for project natal if Microsoft and Nintendo could swallow their pride and just make one f***ing game together.

this "no controller philosophy" could make or break gaming (i think it's gonna break it)

NO CONTROLLERS--I MEAN, WTF!
