The last time I threw a controller was in a game of NHL 96. We were playing in 2002, though. I was pretty embarrassed. That I threw the controller, not that I was playing NHL 96.

This is interesting, to say the least.  I'm really curious as to how this will control and feel.  Gotta love all the people that are automatically assuming it's not going to work or is going to suck without any knowledge of how it'll work.  Who knows?  Maybe the thing will be awesome.

I'm pretty excited to see what they do with it. I've been completely uninterested in either Kinect or Move so far.
 
Also, I spelled Battalion wrong, despite linking to the article. Ugh.

 So... it's "breaking" now I guess.

This seem nuts to anybody else? I never had a chance to play the original. I can't say I'm all that into the Kinect at all, but this kind of stuff could at least get me to turn my head. Unless they just need you to mimic using a waist-high controller with forty buttons.

Man I am excited about this.

It really sucks that publishers pay so much attention to metacritic, but they do. At least in this case it's Bungie. I don't think they're bothered about things like that. It's also pretty cool that GIantbomb can ignore a lot of that stuff. The good part about being small to begin with.

You lost me the second you used the word "gamer."
