Motion Control Gaming In Development For Xbox 360? PDF Print E-mail

Xbox 360 motion controllers may not be that far off. Looks like Microsoft may be working with motion control developer Gyration to bring the technology to the Xbox 360, according to an article at XboxFamily.com. Gyration worked on early prototype motion control technology with Nintendo. Gyration has also developed a Windows Media Center Universal Remote, which uses "In-air cursor control using Patented Gyroscopic Motion-Sensing technology." Talk or mention of motion control is not new to the Xbox 360 platform, however, XboxFamily.com's article noting Gyration shows things could be well in development.

There's been attempts on getting the Wii Remote and motion technology to work with the Xbox 360 by home brew devs. One example is from Xilt. The homebrew mod from Xilt allows you to rig up a Xbox 360 controller to add motion control to the Xbox 360.

With Microsoft's Xbox 360 being the only current generation gaming console missing motion technology in a controller, it's a good possibility that it'll happen. Especially seeing how motion control gaming has been adopted and successful on the Wii. Motion control on the Xbox 360 has been bat about earlier this year, with the former Xbox 360's Peter Moore and Microsoft’s Chris Satchell sharing thoughts on it. There's been no official announcements from Microsoft on motion control on the Xbox 360.
