Sony Motion Controls Coming to Resident Evil 5, LittleBigPlanet

Neat.

So I'm assuming that there will be a way to navigate through 3D worlds with Sony's motion wands?  Like a analog joystick on the control, or a Nunchuck-like attachment?

I'll hold out for the directors cut of RE5 because RE4 motion controls were nice, so ps3 motion controls should be VERY nice.

I apologize for my ignorance, but how can the motion control work well for moving around or turning your character around? I'm confuzzled about how that will work.
 
Also GT5 in March 2010! Well, in Japan that is. I kind of hate it when games are released regionally or locally in one place then you have to wait for how many damn months before its shipped overseas. I don't have to do much waiting since I don't even have a PS3 though.

" Why? the sixaxis motion controls blow... "

Mmm Resident Evil 5: Director's Cut. I like the sound of that.

I don't need anymore Resident Evil 5.

A rerelease of Resident Evil 5? No thanks, I found the first one underwhelming already.

" If you swipe the controller from left to right, does it give Sheva a backhand for using all the health sprays? "

I never play my Wii, so If the motion controls become ubiquitous on PS3 I'll never play it either.  I'll just become a PC gamer again.

I'm not sold on Sony's motion controller.  Probably because I don't care too much for the Wii's controller or motion controllers is general. 

Man, I can just taste Tiger Woods with this device. Yeah, tastes good.

It's pretty cool they are rolling this out so soon, but honestly, I prefer a controller.
 
For example, Wii Sports Resort and Super Mario Galaxy are extremely well put-together games, but I barely ever touch them because I always opt for 360.
 
This looks cool the same way Natal looks cool, but I don't know if this generation is when people are going to switch over to a new control scheme for their main HD console.

LBP sounds alright. RE5 director's cut...no.

The revolution continues.....
 
To think a few years ago, they were laughing at the idea of motion controls.
 
I myself don't like them being implemented mid way thru a console generation. The Wiimote was so successful because it was the standard way to play. Natal and the Wand are just add-ons.
 
They will have to go full force on this, or it's future is debatable. At least until next-gen.

jeff has a wii. this is odd

If you swipe the controller from left to right, does it give Sheva a backhand for using all the health sprays?

Seeing on how I have the 360 version of RE5, they would have to at least put in more content into the director's cut edition like they did with the wii version of RE4, then I will most likely pick up the copy.

Ugh. So RE 5 Directors cut is a new disk and possibly a PS3 exclusive. Pass.

I just wonder what the pricing wil be for this thing. $55? $70 bundled with the Eye? I also wonder how the Eye and motion control tech will impact game performance as I remember reading that the tech requires quite a bit of memory from the Cell SPUs.

Having to hold the DS3 one hand and the dildo wand in the other to use it is instant fail.

Waggle controls coming soon to your PS3!

WAGGLAN GAEMS

Huh cool, but I don't think I'll play LBP with it.

" Great, now LBP will be even more clunkier to play :P "

I can't imagine playing LittleBigPlanet with motion controls. That game is strictly a platformer.

RE5 extra content is no doubt similar to extra Ada stuff in some editions of RE4. Probably a Jill thing.

Motion controls would probably get me interested enough to get back into LBP again but I won't be rebuying RE5 unless there is some series new content involved.

RE5: Wii Edition sounds really neat. I loved the RE4: Wii Edition.

Sweet!! Can't wait to get the RE5: DC.

Great, now LBP will be even more clunkier to play :P

While the appeal of RE5 with pointing is debatable (I loved RE4 on the Wii so I think it's awesome) I think the real thing I take away from this is how serious developers and Sony are about this thing, and how fast it's ending up in a high profile, third party, "traditional" game that can benefit from it. 
 
When we first saw both HD motion control offerings I was sure that it wouldn't actually amount to much on the game side for a long time, but this completely disproves that notion. I think if this is how fast implementation happens, it's not unfeasible to think it'll be a real presence on the system. As an optional means of control, certainly, but that's essentially what it has been for a while on the Wii aswell.
 
It'll be interesting to see if Natal can offer a similar application and if so, if we'll actually approach a standard feature set across platforms. That would be.. crazy.

There was a time in which Giant Bomb wasn't infested with console fanboys..  there were adults.. who could afford all 3 systems, and it was pretty cool.

" I think it'd be alright if they offered a trade-in program where you trade in your normal copy of RE5 and then pay 5 bucks to get the RE5 Director's Cut. Otherwise, this is pretty terrible. "

" why is RE5 Wii eddition on the PS3? "

Ugh. So the PS3 is the Wii HD now? -sigh-. I was hoping for something a little more original. I'll stick to my RE5 the way it is.

I think it'd be alright if they offered a trade-in program where you trade in your normal copy of RE5 and then pay 5 bucks to get the RE5 Director's Cut. Otherwise, this is pretty terrible.

Hopefully this new addition of RE5 will bring up to par to the PC version or even RE4 Wii. 
 
I'm not a big fan of waggling, but it worked perfect for reloading and quick knifing.

I can't think of how RE5 would be improved with motion-wand play... seems really bizarre to me

Why? the sixaxis motion controls blow...

It would be pretty cool to see Ratchet & Clank games use the motion controller for certain weapons and items. It would be 100% optional, but still really clever and fun(hopefully).

" Motion controls will not make the game that much better. The NPC count will need to be upped significantly, and seeing as though that was only done on PC for technical reasons, this sounds a little lame and a waste of time. "

" Reading a live blog of this it sounded like the RE5 demo was an impression (good or bad remains to be seen) of RE4 on Wii... Except holding a dual shock on the left hand (yuck)... NOW people are excited for this sort of gameplay, eh? Figures.Is it 100% that Director's Cut is the motion controlled version or just speculation? It sounded like DLC material, or re-release, and I read mumblings over the motion controlled version being called Alternate something or other. "

Great it's going to be the third time I bought resident evil 5 then. Also the pc version already has very accurate controls. Still I can't really aim well on the ps3's dual shock at all, maybe this new control scheme would be better if the motion controller didn't look so retarded.
