subject: Xbox 360 Games: Bringing You The Most Immersive Experience by:Paul Wise [print this page] Xbox 360 Games offer some of the most incredibly immersive experiences anywhere, online or off. With blockbuster titles like Halo, Fallout, Call of Duty, and Panzer General: Allied Assault, it's hard to see what else could possibly improve game play any more than the long way it's already come. After all, it wasn't but a few years ago that clunky old-school controllers were still being used. Nowadays the user interface has improved noticeably, with on-board accelerometers to process spatial data for human kinetics in gaming. But something on the horizon may be the most revolutionary thing to hit video gaming at home in our time.
Xbox 360 games can be closely matched to Xbox 360 Accessories for the most seamless experience of truly immersive game play. But what if there were no need for any Xbox 360 accessories except one? One uber-accessory to replace them all? Long the stuff of science fiction and comic books, this latest of Xbox 360 accessories would also be the last. It would be the only thing needed to play all the Xbox 360 games made from then on.
Never heard of it? That's because it was only recently announced by Microsoft. It's an electronic eye of sorts that will obliterate the need for physical controllers, hardware that is held in one's hand. This new soon-to-come electronic eye will sense player movements in space, so hand-held controllers with built-in accelerometers will no longer be necessary. This latest advance in gaming technology is due out within the next year or two, and will be mounted separately from the console. But all user movement data will be provided to the console just the same. Try to imagine playing videogames with nothing more than your own body and body movements!
This veritable magic eye that Microsoft has been developing will even track eye movements to change point-of-view in a first-person shooter. Imagine Halo or Call of Duty or Medal of Honor without pesky controllers but with instead a light gun and your own body and your own eyes! As you turn right the screenshot reveals scenery to your right side, and as you turn left the panorama shifts with you!
So while today's Xbox 360 games are quite advanced, the Xbox accessories to come will require software that rethinks the whole notion of onscreen and off. Hardware and software exist in a symbiotic relationship, and it will be interesting to see what transpires next now that the hardware has taken a quantum leap forward!
