Mizuguchi, Suda 51 weigh in on E3's new motion controllers

"It's not a shift from 2D to 3D or in the number of polygons, but it's games trying to open up an entirely new door," Mizuguchi agreed, continuing, "I thought it would take longer, but it's happening faster than I expected." Ironically, when the trio chose the most exciting games at E3, the list quickly filled with Western-developed games, from Splinter Cell: Conviction and Assassin's Creed 2 to The Beatles: Rock Band. Could they resist the ubiquitous Final Fantasy name drop? No, no they could not. "The visual quality was so impressive that I doubted it was even a game," Hino said of AC2, adding, "Final Fantasy XIII is the same way." Impressed/interested by the motion technology but still loving AAA-franchise sequels? Sounds like the whole game industry right now.

ilovethewaggle @ Jul 1st 2009 4:45PM
that would be an insult to the DSW. on a side note, even Microsoft loves the Waggle!
xtremeholymuffin @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM

msuanderson @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM

xtremeholymuffin @ Jul 1st 2009 4:36PM
As a side note, I don't think that's a metaphor.
Storm Eagle (P:FoXGameR, X:PullingADrifter) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM
That's about to be one scary elephant....
sjenky @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM

Aivskar @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM
May this gag never stop running.
jnyjb @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM
I think a ver important question is: "Will the face be here tomorrow?"
Only time will tell...
Rob @ Jul 1st 2009 4:38PM
No, my guess is they'll use the Burger King's face to terrorize us tomorrow.

Thank Nintendo!

...for singlehandedly invalidating and excluding hardcore gamers from this industry? No thanks!
Game Publisher: "Hmm.. Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid, Street Fighter etc.. sell millions of copies, buuuuuut Wii Fit, Wii Play, Brain Age, Petz etc.. sell millions AND MILLIONS AND MILLIONS!!!!
What project should we greenlight next?"

You DO realize how silly your comment is on an article about Suda friggin' 51 and Tetsuya Mizuguchi (Ulala!) talking about making motion controlled games, right?
Invalidating and excluding indeed.
Sly @ Jul 1st 2009 5:38PM
who wants to say it again? fine, i will. sony began the whole motion thing years before the release of the wii. nintendo just made it mainstream.
Zexion_VI @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM
Natal should come with a game that allows you to play volleyball with the Dead Space chick's head.
Leroy_Octopus @ Jul 1st 2009 4:39PM
YES, YES, and also YES!
FACE EXTRACTION @ Jul 1st 2009 4:34PM

Manly Mcbeefington (Mr. ESC) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:49PM
What can I say I was never really a fan of the Guy Fawkes mask...
(Why I can't change my avatar)
Manly Mcbeefington (Mr. ESC) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:50PM
*Why can't I change my avatar?
I believe that if I can change and you can change then everybodfy can change.
NaeemTHM @ Jul 1st 2009 4:35PM
Didn't Suda say he was interested in making a game for the 360 and/or PS3? Does this mean we'll see a No More Heroes port for Natal/PS3 Wand?!
Mr Khan @ Jul 1st 2009 6:18PM
Not a port. But he did say that the *next* NMH (after Desperate Struggle) would not be on the Wii.
Though that wouldn't be until like 2012 or something, so it may just wind up being on Nintendo's successor console.
msuanderson @ Jul 1st 2009 4:35PM
How many pictures of Dead Space girl are there you may ask? IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND
Yatcho @ Jul 1st 2009 4:37PM
Nope, only 23. Guess again.
msuanderson @ Jul 1st 2009 4:38PM

Storm Eagle (P:FoXGameR, X:PullingADrifter) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:49PM
D'Oh!
Girugamuk (Moptimus Slimed) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:36PM
why couldn't Kudo be painting her face? Or have here face as one of the people to the left
Leroy_Octopus @ Jul 1st 2009 4:36PM
She seems to be horrified by something. I'm assuming Milo.
ArchiGamer @ Jul 1st 2009 4:36PM
You guys lose a point for not putting her head on Kodu.
supersonic159 @ Jul 1st 2009 4:40PM
LOL I'll keep reading posts as long as that face keeps showing up!
MystileArmor @ Jul 1st 2009 4:40PM
What's Steve Ballmer doing in that picture?
Girugamuk (Moptimus Slimed) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:42PM
Steve Ballmer can't enjoy his invisible sandwich

Storm Eagle (P:FoXGameR, X:PullingADrifter) @ Jul 1st 2009 4:47PM
