Sigo trayendo informaciĆ³n de la GDC de este aƱo, y ahora voy con otra de las noticias que mĆ”s polvareda ha levantado estos dĆas. En esta ocasiĆ³n, tanto Xbox como Sony han anunciado que para finales de aƱo, en otoƱo concretamente, van a tener un controlador con sensor de movimiento. Esto quiere decir, mas o menos, que se acaban de apropiar descaradamente de la idea bĆ”sica de funcionamiento de la Wii, y una de las razones de su Ć©xito, y que, desgraciadamente, los usuarios de Xbox y de Playstation vamos a empezar a ver como nuestro catalogo de juegos favoritos va a empezar a emborronarse con multitud de juegos ācasualesā del estilo Imagina ser Guardia Urbano, Imagina ser Repartidor de Bombonas, Cuida a tu Ornitorrinco y el resto de abominables juegos que nutren el desastroso catalogo de juegos de la Wii.
On the other hand, although these games are the ones that are really managing to push the third parties forward in this time of crisis, you know, very low production cost and acceptable sales, the mere fact of thinking about a future Gears of War or Call of Duty using the motion sensor as if it were a weapon, makes my console geek side rebel and thank God for incorporating this element to the console of my loves, although of course, for this we will still have to wait for the play that so much Microsoft and Sony are going to adopt this new peripheral, and if they are going to direct it to compete directly with Nintendo or if they will really try to get their own benefit by differentiating themselves from the Japanese company.
Among the technical characteristics, they say that technically the control is much superior to what the Wii comes with, since in addition to controlling the direction of movement just as the Wiimote for Wii and the Sixaxis for PS3 do, this new controller will also measure the distance, orientation and speed of the controller using two sensors, instead of the single sensor of the current Wii remote. In addition, the first video of the game has been released that will accompany the launch of this new peripheral.
