star wars and gaming
a few niftys coming out of E3..
Nintendo's putting out a 1:1 motion attachment for the WiiMote to get better 3d motion capture. So along with Force Unleashed having light saber duel mode for the Wii, the Clone Wars game coming will also have a lightsaber duel component. I'm hoping they might make use of the improved motion capture. From what I read, there was some swordplay at the Nintendo demo, so technically it's possible.
So, to top that off, something that almost had me chimping (jumping up and down, saying "ooh ooh ooh"), was that the LucasArts/BioWare project announced a few months ago is a Knights of the Old Republic MMO (link here: http://www.joystiq.com/2008/07/17/porfolio-com-lucasarts-and-bioware-building-kotor-mmo/ )
