Guy takes skyward sword way to seriously.

[onin]

Maybe one day you will be as cool as this guy... but probably not.

[Deleted]

That guy is epic

[Rushro]

And I thought I looked like a spaz doing Skyward Strikes.

[Deleted]

Now thats how you play a game!

[psdew1813]

swag-star.

[Deleted]

I need to get that game.

[Bodaway]

That was actually really impressive.

[Wishblade]

Exercise? Hellz no, Imma just play some Skyward Sword! =)

[Deleted]

Lol, I feel really bad when I lie in my bed and can barely roll bombs because im too lazy when this guy is doing MFing backflips and spinattacks

This is exactly why I have come to the conclusion that even if Virtual Reality ever makes it to a playable form in my life time, that it will be wasted on me. No way am I going to exert myself like that to play a game. Lazy, minimal movement, button pressing, mouse wielding for the win.

I bet the people who live below him bang on their ceiling with a broom all the time.

Which is why I HATE the wii. I don't mind a few gimmicky moves, but having to wave my arms about constantly, flailing like a worgen mage - makes me annoyed.

Then you're playing it wrong, or the game's bad. After 10 hours of Skyward Sword (pretty much the paragon of Wii controls right now), my only symptom was some minor wrist pain and the desire to play more.

That is epic. That's totally how I play my video games. In no way do I sit on a coach and not move for hours on end. Zero chance.

Well I haven't played Skyward yet (I guess that is wrong though hah) but obviously you've never played the Wii boxing or Smash Bros. Brawl.... But honestly, it's been so long since I've played my wii (honestly, I'm not sure where it even is... Probably in the basement soaking in cat urine... Hmm I should probably check that...), I just *remember* it was being annoying. Still, I'd prefer a controler option.

If I could do flips while I gamed, I would too.

You must have a fun time raiding then, standing bend-over for hours on end :P (.... That came out oh so wrong)

[Kals]

Hahahaha, epic. Been playing it a decent bit, need a bigger area to play it in though, got a weird angle going on with my sensor due to limited space.

I would absolutely LOVE to be able to play in Virtual Reality. To be able to emerge into your game completely is just amazing.


Check this video, it comes very close to it.



Sadly, this takes up way too much space. We will probably end up with some headgear that connects our brainwaves to the game so we can execute things by thinking what we want to do.

I've seen people play Wii boxing and other Wiisports games. I'd agree with calling those gimmicks and not very fun. I haven't played any of the Wii 'minigame' collections, or Brawl, actually. Brawl's got a classic controller option though, I'm pretty sure, and I'd definitely play it that way instead of motion controls.

Motion controls are like 3D. In the right situations, they can provide an experience not possible with conventional mechanics, but, applied haphazardly, they are horrible. The first 4 or so years of the Wii's lifetime was defined by crappy third-party devs throwing them on to games haphazardly, just like the current trend with 3D in movies.
