Late Evening Reading

All kinds of fun stuff at CES this year eh? That show seems to really have picked up over the past few years. Good times.

- Yup, the year of the Wiki
- Teen growth spurts helping moms
- Google video deal announced
- Detroit sucking :(
- Instant-on laptops
- Gates talks Vista

Lastly, it's historical! a misprinted $20 bill! Gotta have it!

Steve Gibson is the cofounder of Shacknews.com. Originally known as sCary's Quakeholio back in 1996, Steve is now President of Gearbox Publishing after selling Shacknews to GameFly in 2009.

      I don't like returning to neutral manually. It's like a detached analog stick.

        I suppose it's better than having to run halfway across the room with it to make a left turn.

      man thats not right, the nunchuk attachment will be for moving your POV around will it not? the actual controller just for movement.

        Analog stick attachment for moving your player around, revmote for pointing and shooting. The demo doesn't do the concept justice though, I would imagine the real thing will be a lot smoother - especially condsidering the impressions given out by IGN/Gamestop/1up/etc.

      I don't like the idea of it increasing it's turn speed the farther you move it away from center. That seems like it would fuck with my aiming.

      I love it, arguing over and critiquing the Revolution controller based off of a flash website that some Joe Schmoe made in his basement.

      You guys are too much.

        I dont even know what would compel someone to make that flash demo, as if it were somehow representative.

        Look, okay, these sticks? Pretend they're car axles, you can turn them!

          Same thing that makes people create elaborate fake 3D renders of Apple products.
