Give Echochrome 2 impressions whenever it's out. Game looks neat!
I have the demo and wanted to try it, but as I mentioned earlier, the battery seems pretty bad. It's an internal battery so you can't swap it when it runs low, and because it is all about swinging it around, it doesn't let you charge it and use it at the same time.
I tried (most of these are demos):
The Shoot: surprisingly fun lightgun shooter
Start The Party: It's an eyetoy-ish thing. Cool augmented reality stuff, though.
Time Crisis: uh, it you had a machine gun and were shooting arabs and mechs I think
Beat Sketcher: it's a painting application...yeah
Tumble: you stack blocks. has cool 1:1 feeling controls when you stack the box. got boring quickly.
PS3 Sports ping pong: awesome. I just wish I had more space to play. walking around the room in real life and having the paddle reflect that on screen is neat
PS3 Sports gladiator: started out thinking it was shit, enjoyed it for a two minutes, ended thinking it was shit.
I say it's like the Wii, but it is more like what the Wii promised to do back in 2005 or 2006. The 1:1 stuff they were talking up seems legit at least. In the painting game, it feels like you're painting on a window and you really need to be reaching around and not just moving your wrist. But in general the pointer controls feel better than the Wii to me; I say in general because not every game is the same. I think it is cool hardware for the most part but who knows if anything good will come of it. It's been a year or so since Motion Plus and there is nothing there.
Actually, other than ping pong, the best part is the western quickdraw bit in The Shoot. It's hard to explain why it was cool.
linkzg is a idiot and is not giving good impressions. xmb usage is awesome, sports champions is amazing.
i bet linkzg likes kinect interface
you'd lose that bet, big boy.
