That's pretty cool, but also kinda strange. It will take a lot of getting used to.

I did that last time as well so I am a Traitor x 2 :P

Anyway I bought a CGN and I have only gotten one game, so I think my Nintendo days are over XD

I have about 7 games for the GC, and I only like about 3.

I think I grew out of console games, they are usually the same old thing...shoot this, kill that...and it's done in such an unoriginal way.  Like take Halo for instance, it's the same old thing just with good graphics and "neato" weapons.

PC games is where it's at.

I have a PS2! :P But I also have an N64....Wow, I'm outdated. :P

Funny thing is shooters are mainly released for PC, consoles have the good ol' RPGs :D

Well...that is somewhat true.  Consoles may get fewer RPGS but the RPGS PCs get are of better quiality.  Take Baldur's gate for example, it is for the PC, and it is easily one of the best RPGs ever made.  Most RPGs made for the Consoles are limited in just about every aspect.

Anyway, this is about GC, not RPGs  :P

But PC doesn't get Square-Enix, and I'm not much of a PC RPG gamer anyway XD

Was just reading the explanation, and the slashing sounds interesting. Also like the sound of Metroid Prime 2 for Revolution, moving the remote around to aim and stuff. It looks like it's gonna be fun :D

If you watch the promo video for this then...I don't understand how anyone can possibly not be drooling in excitement about this. My mind has literally been a hive of activity the apst two days imagining all teh uses this could be put to.

FPS have now got the most precise and perfectly suited input method ever created, forget mice and keyboard setups or regular game pads, this is the future. A few ideas so far:

Imagine resi evil in First person perspective, want to get a nice precise head shot on that pesky zombie? Just point to its head and shoot!

Fancy a nice relaxing bout of fishing? Just cast using a regular casting method and wait for the nibbles.

Want to play drums but dont have any? Plug in a couple of controllers and have your own drum set.

Want to play squash or tennis? Just hit the ball with the remote!

Always wanted to be that Warrior barbarian person in your favourite RPG? Well now you have your very own sword! Slash away. This also works for wizards and sorcerer types, imagine casting spells by making gestures with the remote ala Black and white gestures you did with the mouse.

Star Wars fans? I'll be betting you can have your own light sabre duels with this bit of kit before long. Also imagine how precisely you can control aircrafts and space ships with this! Remember not only does it recognise up, down. left and right but it has depth perception.

Any sport and any genre of game can only benefit from this input method and i simply cant wait to see what all the developers come up with. If you want more of the same with HD graphics and even more polygons then X360 and PS3 are your main bet. If you want to actually play something truely next-gen then keep your eyes peeled for the release date.

EDIT: Another idea, imagine the possibilities this has for the Adventure genre! Something creepy like phantasmagoria where you say have a torch, THIS IS YOUR TORCH! Its also the first precise way to have a mouse pointer in a 3d environment, you could actually walk round the room and your on screen persona would move re your movements.

Multiplayer FPS would be hard, because you need to be able to quickly move around, and I would personally rather go out and really fish :P
