I'm hoping for some light gun style games that will allow for 2 wands at once...

i might be in the minority here, but i'm one of those people that pay extra and use both light guns at the same time in the arcade... it's the only way I can beat Time Crisis... without resorting to endless quarters of course.

i'm with you, except that holding your arms out for an extended period of time SUCKS. this is an issue that the motion wand and natal are both going to have to contend with, and i'm very interested to see their answers.

@Rocks:
That sounds like complete BS. Using both guns at the arcade for Time Crisis? Do you even understand what you just said? I can accept House of the Dead 4 because it IS physically possible with how the machine is set up but not Time Crisis, not ANY of the Time Crisis arcade machines.

I honestly see this ending up as the Eye Toy did. A few crappy games and Sony will stop supporting it all together.

Yeah, I think that Sony's (And Microsoft's) main audiences will not go for motion control as much as they think they will, and they will not easily take Nintendo audience away from them. Natal seems like a fine user interface, but I just can't see playing games with it.

I agree with you. I expect both Natal and whatever PS3's is called will have one game each that is somewhere between killer app and tech demo, and after a few niche followup games on Live/PSN, nobody will develop for it again.

fear not! Nintendo wii already break that barrer. Also you have the PStore a great way to sell mini games for the pswand (lol)

What need support is the other XMB functions like playing your own music and take snapshots of games...the app is already there for devs but i think they ignore those amazing features.

Im sorry i should have specified when in e3(the demonstration of the motion sensor ps3) there were 2 guys and one looked outta place, but he turned out to be an all right guy and pretty funny. The tickle tickle tickle is when he used the wands thing to lightly tap on the enemies chin and he went "tickle tickle tickle" i am sorry for posting a childish comment, and im gonna take it like a man and accept the 1 star

The word 'dual' immediately makes me think of the dual lightsaber or double-bladed lightsaber that darth maul wielded :P

I sure would like a game that used the wands like that.

On November 6th the EyeToy sold 10.5 million units since it's release in 2003.

21 stand alone games were released for it and 36 games supported the functionality of the camera.

So either Tridrakious was born less than a year ago, or he's dead already.

Either way, I agree with Ashitaka.

The term Dual Wanding makes me instinctively think of a Harry Potter porn parody.

If they are going to give the option of dual wanding then they should give you 2 for the price of one. Seems silly not to especially when you showed it in your demo. The need to give these away with games or they will not catch on. At least thats what I think. Wii has conquered this market and to not give them away would seem to end up as a gimmick.

This means one thing and only one thing the cheap bastards will only bundle one controller and possibly the eye at $50-60 probably the single controller will cost about the price of a dual shock 3.. Im annoyed now, they should still bundle 2 of them together.

Dual wanding may not be required, but it still totally badass. Especially if you're riding atop a Lamborghini.

I figured as much. Sony was just doing that to show the capabilities of it, not necessarily as a practical application.

Still kinda something i would like to see. They also need to do this on Wii.
