So for some reason I was listening to an old Hotspot, the 5/1/2007 Hotspot to be exact and they were talking about the Playstation Eye. Jeff chimes in and mentions that this could become Sonys answer to the Wiis motion controls. He even mentions that they could use red and blue batons to pick up the movements...Who knew that Jeff would be right on the money?

So who else wants Jeff to give us some lottery numbers? Or maybe use his awesome gift so predict more things for us?

They demoed this tech way back for the PS2 actually (although it was significantly less complex then). Nonetheless, that's a pretty neat call.

I just cue'd up the episode, and I'm about to blast some fools in Diablo 2 while I listen to it waiting for Jeff's awesome powers to ring in my ears.....

They should have fully developped this tech back then. They could have beat the Wii to market if they had taken it seriously. Now, there's a good chance their motion control tech could get overshadowed by the Wii and Natal.

Jeff's done this before, he's better than any analyst out there. Or he has inside sources.

He's not considered an expert in his field for nothing....he pays people to say that.

Jeff can also fly, and shoot lazerbeams out of his eyes. These are some lesser known facts about him, though.

But yeah, that was a good prediction!

A lot of things in the gaming industry get out way before people are supposed to know about them. Jeff is just better at being more subtle about it.

I like the sentiment but it wasn't a psychic predition, cameras have been using strong coloured markers (pure blue, red, green, etc) to detect movement for years, he was just commenting that something like that could be used in conjunction with the eye tech. Lo and behold, it was. Jeff always makes good calls because he knows the industry, but psychic? I love the idea, but , just so we're clear, hell no.

That pic is fucking epic though.
