HardGrip: Wii game uses MotionPlus for rock climbing, other motion-based platforms on the horizon
Human Soft calls its upcoming MotionPlus-enhanced rock climbing game
HardGrip "the first extreme rock climbing game for Wii," but we disagree with that appellation. How could Human Soft (or anyone) forget
Rock N' Roll Climber, Nintendo's Balance Board-capable WiiWare game that combined
rock climbing with
air guitar? We can't imagine a more extreme rock climbing game on Wii.
While the Wii version is the only officially announced release, Xbox owners who want to
claw at thin air (and PlayStation 3 owners who want to
follow the bouncing ball up the side of a mountain) may be in luck. "In addition to the Wii product," the press release notes, "Human Soft is working on versions of
HardGrip for other upcoming motion-based game systems."
