All three motion controllers are in fact some form of CGI motion capture. For the Wii, we have two fix IR source for triangulation calculation to find Wiimote's relative position. For the PS3, we have a camera tracking a glowing sphere, and calculate distance base on size of the sphere getting bigger and smaller moving in and out of the camera. And we have Natal, it uses an IR projector to capture a 3D image (much like a radar gun) and use programing to track joints of a person's body.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Damn Droids are still hatting on NAtal but love their purple dildo magic wand look mamma it turn red with i shove it up my ass.
ahahahahahah droids are going to love their dildo only on f@gstation 3 .
I believe that the "glowing" sphere is also Infa red,I believe that the colors reflect a stance or gaming mode.
Natal has demonstrated 1:1 motion tracking yet and quite some lag. Its still in development but from what I have seen I am not impressed "yet".
Sony's lack of support for the Eyetoy in general makes believe they will only throw mini-games at the motion-wands. Nintendo on the other hand was built from the ground up on the motion controls. Therefore, Nintendo won't be knocked from the top from the casual gamer throne.
"People are lazy, they like to sit on the couch and enjoy their entertainment with a can of beer by their side."
I wouldn't describe us lazy, but I would rather say that most people play video games to relax.
I believe in MS and SONY!
So hard. I can't wait to see people reaction 2 years from now. When it gets 5/10 across the board when it releases. Unless microsoft puts in a controller, and has this 'no controller nonsense' it will be eyetoy 2.
