http://www.ign.com/a...-controllersThe link here pretty much says it all.I was put off at first about their new patents. Thinking they were very gimmicky. I'm intrigued by this though. This has crazy potential, and will definitely make for some interesting... well... whatever it's going to be.

Microsoft working on a 'wearable controller'?

I don't think I can be persuaded to try this again. I like the gimmick but I think most players will stick to their traditional controlles ( me included). I do like to see how far they can push this, maybe a worthy attempt at a good virtual reality game/console? xoxo

I guess sometime in the distant future, this will be a thing, once it is made natural feeling and it stops feeling like a gimmick.But this raises an astounding question. Can I wear it on my penis?

I agree, that I probably won't buy it and will just stick to my controller. The potential though is astounding.Imagine a MOCAP suit for gaming. I wouldn't mind looking stupid if I could actually FEEL what was going on in my game. ( Not actual pain though, I assume just vibrations from where the bullet impacted or sword hit, or if the ground is shaking, etc ).

It really is just a matter of time before simulated sex becomes better than actual sex.But I'll be following this development pretty closely. Could be good.

I'm concerned now.Complete with personality and willingness settings, all for $11,000,000 adjusted 2020 inflation.
I can't help but think this isn't what the topic was meant for.

Only Nintendo knows how to do motion control right. I don't see this becoming very popular, to be honest.
