This week’s podcast was delayed when the original recording didn’t take and had to go with Dan Quick’s backup. Otherwise, the Gaming Flashback this week is the supremely weird Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu.
The other news items include:
- Call of Duty: Elite for Black Ops 2 will be free
- Kickstarter comes to UK this Halloween
- Metro: Last Light dumping multiplayer
- Microsoft banning PEGI 18 apps from Windows 8 Store
The Question of the Week is, “What was the game with the worst title you’ve ever played?”
Wii Motion Plus: Hardware Fix?Wii Motion Plus: Hardware Fix?
Nintendo has already announced the Wii Motion Plus at E3. This device is supposed to fine tune the motion sensing capabilities of the Wii controller and make it a bit more refined for gaming. Sounds, to me, like a hardware patch, no?
1up is reporting:
“The Wii MotionPlus accessory attaches to the end of the Wii Remote and, combined with the accelerometer and the sensor bar, allows for more comprehensive tracking of a player’s arm position and orientation, providing players with an unmatched level of precision and immersion,” says Nintendo. “Every slight movement players make with their wrist or arm is rendered identically in real time on the screen, providing a true 1:1 response in their game play. The Wii MotionPlus accessory reconfirms Nintendo’s commitment to making games intuitive and accessible for everyone.”
This is a great move, technologically, for Nintendo but what gamers really are looking for along with this advancement is… games.
