Microsoft to reveal their motion sensitive controller early next week? - 05-09-2008

If many of you have read my past articles about Microsoft developing their own Wii remote for the Xbox360, then you should know that it’s going to be one ferocious battle between the two companies. Well rumors are speculating the net saying that Microsoft will reveal this Wii remote killer next...

those idiots, what, do they think they can get away with this?
nintendo cant sue them. nintendo did not invent the motion sensing technology that is used in their controllers. the LICENSED it. microsoft is just licensing it from the same people.

True. But we don't know for sure if Microsoft's device will be anything like the wiimote. All we know is that it will be 'motion sensing'. It can be nothing like the Wiimote, for all we know. The picture in the header was just fan made, I think.

They didn't patent the wiimote, they patented the back trigger (B). Some wireless mouse company patented the flying controller design. But microsoft can do the same thing if they want. I wonder what they'll do with it tho. I love halo 3 with the classic xbox controller! And where should we plug the mic? I want to communicate while playing capture the flag >_>
