EA Grand Slam developer: MotionPlus is too sensitive

Except that the Prius in your story is just as expensive as a Ferrari

In his story the Ferrari would have had to be dropped to the same price as the Prius, after nobody bought the Ferrari because it was actually just a regular same old car with a really shiny exterior. Still got you from A to B, just looked prettier while doing it. Meanwhile the Prius had a button that would make it fly. Nobody really cared about the traditional ideas about cars anymore, they just wanted to take to the skies. Hence the Ferrari got dropped in price even further. Of course the hardcore car enthusiasts didn't like all this one bit, shaking their fists at all the people up there just having fun flying around, talking about how the Prius' technical specifications could never live up to those of the Ferrari. And they just wilted away in their garages, and nobody cared.

bm that's the best analogy I've ever seen.

The problem is: devs don't see this, and while the other consoles don't innovate in anything, they still get most of the awesome games (and that's why I had to buy an xbox360, ToV, RE5 and SO4 sold the console to me).

"It's like someone who has a new Ferrari getting pissed at someone else's Prius because it's too slow."

It's like someone who has a new Ferrari getting pissed at someone else's Flying Prius because it's too slow.

Fixed

Sadly only a handful of highways allowed the Prius to really fly, but most of the places where you would drive your Prius only let you fly halfassedly and very slowly, to the point you would just rather drive like you used to again.

Being that the traditional "hardcore" gamer isn't a regualr tennis player either, I don't think the "casuals" are the only ones that would have to worry.

Still, I agree with everyone who says it only makes sense that true 1:1 (or whatever Motion+'s max output is), would be way to sensitive for almost any game. The developer in the interview just didn't explain himself very well and the article author didn't help him any (possibly because he didn't think he needed to, it is kinda obvious if you apply a little common sense).
