You know, I hate the films, I haven't really enjoyed any of the games...but I would LOVE a fucking lightsabre duel with Darth Vader using the Revmote! It would sell a shitton of copies surely - put it in store kiosks and noone will be able to not notice someone in the corner battling with Sith Lords etc. It's almost a no-brainer

But how many people would end up crushing their Revmotes!
HowardMoon said:
oh no you didn't! This idea simply has to find its way into a game (FPS or otherwise)

I don't know shit. It is just something I thought came across from Twilight's post about other people around the world keeping quiet until April 20th but 1 idiot ruining the surprise + Nintendo Power's claim to a world exclusive. I just assumed some kind of schedule has been planned for maximum impact

Only thing that slightly concerns me, is interactivity of the environments. The images seem to show sparks coming from the slot machines. Anything made of wood, concrete, glass and fiberglass should be destructible.
I wish there were images of someone being shot.

Will you say "wow" and "welcome chang3" if PS3's controller redesign/or EyeToy2 effectively moots Revmote's advantages? Not that I'm saying either will, or that I even want 'em to, but the reaction will be pretty funny.
Please don't go there
Edit: LOL, Syphon Filter PSP looks NOTHING like that image jarrod. That was a bullshit shot, and I think you know it. Syphon Filter PSP does look better than almost every Dreamcast game I've played, but of course that's not saying much.

Yeah, are Revolution's physics possibilities going to constrain what ideas work well? Even if they do, there is always next time I guess

psp games might have slightly lower poly counts and reduced texture quality over rev games, but the two hardware platforms are clearly from the same gen in terms of hardware features

you're the most hilarious poster ever. Only a genius could ever made such witty joke posts, I see you as GAF's version of Bill Hicks but without the dodgy sexual jokes. I never get tired of seeing you troll and attempt to derail topics...after I've finished browsing GAF, my tears of laughter have carved canyons in my face.

Considering that Nintendo has heavily patented the revolution's remote, I don't think we'll see a proper alternative on the PS3. And even if we do, $500USD for a console versus <$200 is a pretty big difference.
I'm going to get a PS3 for sure, but only when it drops to mainstream price and it's named PSthree

If GameCube > PSP, then Rev is easily > PSP. Simple logic there, folks. I suggest posting in Drinky's thread, it makes more sense there.

Actually, after you finish reading it...
Can you share with us what it says about the swordplay mechanics?
I'll say it for the third time this thread - but does it mention force feedback at all?
Or how they are going to deal with the issue of sword fighting and encountering other objects, such as another sword blocking it?
It is essential for proper gameplay if there is some kind of resistance... how else would online multiplayer swordfights work...

It's the perfect storm of jarrod getting baited by Drinky.
Anyhoo, slightly more on topic.
You're never going to see any kind of 'risky' control device on a $500 console. The whole purpose of the Rev is that its price will give it the opportunity to try something new that the shareholders wont totally freak out about. At best you might see an eyetoy camera in the PS3 controller, but even then you're needlessly pumping up the cost.Koam said:
I'm sure there's probably some clever functionality of the PS3 controller and that's why they've kept it in the dark, but no devs are working with the assumption of anything more than a Dual Shock 2. So it's not going to be, umm... revolutionary.
ant1532 said:
That's not what he's asking.
If there's a multiplayer mode with swordplay, how will the Revmote react to your own sword slashes getting blocked. Let's say you swing down, but the sword is blocked and held in mid-swing. You've swung all the way down, but the sword is frozen in mid strike.
I think it's a great question, and it has never really been answered.

ant1532 said:
Yea, but, does that mean that you're going to feel that in the controller?
What I'm trying to say is, if there isn't any force feedback, then you can theoritcally just take out the sword and wave it like madman and have it hit every object constantly, including enemies, and your hand will never stop going... if you don't feel a "hit" in your hand, you could just block every damn thing coming at you and you'd be invincisble.
Not to mention, if you swing your arms wildly (note: this isn't the preferred control method, I know, but people WILL do it) and you hit the badguy's sword and your arms keep moving - what kind of skill is that? Its just like, well - real life hack 'n slash, heh.
Not to mention, how bad would online mutliplayer be if your just swinging wildly with no resistance when your blades clash?
None of this is new - we've all talked about it before - I'm just hoping somewhere in that article its ADDRESSED and we can get some hard answers on the issue finally.
Edit: yea, what Gore said
Mama Smurf

I haven't really thought this through, but I imagine they'll make it so if they block your attack, while your hand might just keep moving straight, in game it'll look like the sword is sliding down the opponents sword.

I know, I know. I know what I said wasn't an original topic of discussion...
But I've been saying it since the damn system was announced, with no answers.
But now is the chance to get some damn answers on the subject, is my point

Goreomedy said:
Yeah it is a good question, but I would have thought that perhaps the hands-on impressions would have mentioned if it felt unnatural...no? Did they not get to try out the sword-fighting sections?
i'd imagine that nothing happens. in the game the sword gets blocked, but your arm will continue to move of course. point of reference probably gets reset and you continue moving the sword around with the revmote. just look at existing games where something will block an action in the game, but there's no physical feedback. our minds have an amazing ability to fill in gaps and make virtual interactions seem natural even when they aren't realistic.Goreomedy said:
it's difficult to explain, but you'll see what i mean for yourself eventually. the solution wont be anything as far fetched as the revmote being able to actually stop your arm from moving when an object your character is controlling collides with another object. like i said, look to existing games where similar things will happen. it's a problem that has already been overcome.

Hopefully, Broadway has some VMX units.
Scrow said:
I wasn't suggesting the Revmote should simulate physical force preventing a motion. That's absurd.
Using past games as reference helps nothing, though. Hitting a single button to swing a sword in a fighting game is a bit different than swinging one in first person mode using an actual swinging motion. I think if a weapon is blocked, but it still warps to the position you "end" at, it will look awkward and destory that sense of immersion.
