then watch the World of Goo video.

Honestly, that's the first motion sensor i've genuinely wanted.

Hmm... i don't really see the difference from e.g. wii remote. You still point at a screen to move a cursor

But the quality and finesse of movement looks so much greater than the Wii, they are tracking that controller to tiny detail.

Still, I don't think this matters much when you just use it to point at the screen (like in the World of Goo example). I'm much more excited about the iPad World of Goo.

Oh the Move absolutely blows the Wii out of the water. The fidelity of the movement is so noticeably superior that it's literally obsoleted Nintendo's approach, although obviously the Wii is no less of a groundbreaking pioneer. The Wii feels like wading through diarrhoea afterwards.

The Kinect continues to utterly not impress me, especially now I've seen that the PlayStation Eye is apparently perfectly capable of voice recognition and multi-person body tracking — it just currently lacks a Sony-provided API for such things so developers have to so it all themselves.
