[citation][nom]tpi2007[/nom]This proves, at least once, that Microsoft can be somewhat original. Not 100%, becasue the Wii started this new era of alternative controls methods, but still, Microsoft took a risk here. Sony is in trouble because people see their product as just a minor improvement over the Wii. And most people who want that kind of control already have a Wii.[/citation]
The first part of this is not true. Microsoft actually showcased a motion sensing game for the original Xbox in the movie The Island. Granted it was still essentially just an idea, and it was only shown through a scene in a movie, but it was still Microsoft's idea before the Wii existed.
