Whenever we play a new game, a dewy eyed Christopher_ Anthony argues, we measure it against experiences from the past that have provided enjoyment, even if they aren't directly comparable.
“With all the fuss about Kinect and Move as well as the proven success of the Wii," he writes, "people will always pit any new motion game against the time they had lying in bed playing a PSOne and how simple everything was. That was the true beauty of things, so we tell ourselves.”
Do you agree with Christopher, or are the concerns levelled at Sony and Microsoft's new motion control schemes justified?
