Well, it looks like the Xbox 360 will be getting a motion controller soon, since TechRadar is reporting that In2Games has released images of its new Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 motion controller called the Gametrak Freedom, which reputedly has “true 3D motion tracking.”
“Until now, gaming has been limited to the player interacting with the game although platforms such as the Wii have heightened this experience. Now, with the latest motion sensing technology created by In2Games, the game will interact with the player” says Chris Richards, president and CEO for the California-based PDP. “We are extremely excited to bring this unparalleled technology to first-party console manufacturers, as well as third-party publishers and developers to further heighten the level of game interaction with the player.”
The controller will be released for the PS3 too, but it already has SIXAXIS. Can you think of any games on the Xbox 360 that could really use the motion controller? TotemBall springs to mind…
