    And due to excessive web traffic, your iPhone Taxi in New York pulls away from the curb 40 minutes after you sat in it. At the Grand Canyon, your iBus drives off the edge when it hits an area without coverage.

    The reason people like Street Fighter is because they can do things they can't do it real life. If you tell me I have to actually jump kick Blanka over and over, I will tell you that will make me tired.


    I may even need a nap.

    @Skeetz: I do agree with that. My whole problem with this type of control scheme is that it just isn't reliable. How are you going to perform a double jump in Unreal? Are your reflexes really good enough to move your whole body for a no-scope headshot? How about not falling down from exhaustion from fighting just 3 people in Fight Night? (Because you do know that even fake punches wear you out.)


    I am not against the exercise inherently involved, I am just saying that it will have to be specialized games suited for the control mechanism, and for the most part, specialized games all suck, because they don't get the money and development resources needed to make a truly outstanding game.

    Doesn't the Play Station line of machines have something similar with their PSCam?


    Also, didn't sega and or SegaCD do something similar once? I swear they did back in the day, but it never caught on.

    Can it handle voice "warbling" during intense physical activities, if you know what I mean?
