If you were wondering when Microsoft would jump on the motion-sensor bandwagon, you might be waiting a long while. According to Bill(ionaire) Gates, the all-powerful being who heads up Microsoft, the motion-sensing technology featured in Nintendo's Wiimote and Sony's PS3 controller "not mainstream for most games," although he notes that "there's room for innovation here." Gates likens his opinion to a Microsoft controller they made a few years prior, which featured motion-sensor controls: "you don't [mean] to fly into the ground ... you just want to put the controller down."Then again, if the technology takes off, expects Gates to make an about-face and make 3D motion a key part of the Xbox 720's controller.
