Motion Control thoughts

Am I buying to PS Move? yes. Am I going to buy MS Kinect, Yea. DO I think these addons are expensive? Um yea. These two products are two different beasts. One is a copy & paste job done better and the other is markecting to the casual gamers at launch which might even know what it is yet let alone buy it on day one. Out of the two motion control devices PS Move is much closer to have hardcore games at launch. While Kinect closest hardcore game is Dance Central.

What is he talking about?

It does seem a bit like Sony is giving up a little. I read something recently that Sony is not to confident about how many PS Moves will see at launch. Come on, don't tell us that. What happened to that confident from the last console generation. I think the PS2 is still selling. Got a little distracted there.

From my point of view it seems that Kinect is probably going to win the hearts and mind of the people. Its the only one that has gone on a slitly different route then the other two. Which actually Nintendo has done a few times. Nintendo is moving onto glasses free technology. I don't think any of us saw that coming. Anyways the major factor that is going to tilt the table is the one that has the better software. I would like for everyone to have great software but some companies have dry spells sometimes.

By the way we dont even know what Nintendo is cooking behind those walls at Nintendo. Who knows what next thing they are moving onto. My bet is either better conectivity between their devices and/or 3D for the console.

Thanks Carlos for allowing me to write on your site. This is actually my first post. I kind of felt I was all over the place but thats ok, I want to get better at this. Hopefully there will be more from me. It is late so goodnight. O yea Im on Twitter.com/Badam

I just found this funny.

MAFIA II Demo - Review

Mafia II drew me in with the Godfather-esque story (albeit a quick 'catch up' version in the demo), and the physics of the game world help solidify my interest. 

It's refreshing to see my bullets do something to the environment around me, instead of go unnoticed in a world like that of GTA. I liked the cover system (although a couple cheap shots I receieved felt a bit 'off') and for the most part felt like I was in the mafia world that 2K Czech created.

It appears that they spent a lot of time on the look and feel of the world, and payed close attention to getting very good (and sometimes humorous) voice talent. Although the timer included in the demo didn't really allow me to spend much too time walking around and exploring the world.

Overall i'm excited to get my hands on the full story and game. Come August 24th (well most likely a week later with how I remember to pick up new games) i'm buying.
