EA: 360 motion sensing controller 'a smart move'

The heavily rumoured 360 motion sensing controller would be a "smart move" on Microsoft's part, according to an associate producer (Gred Rinaldi) at EA.

He said: "If Microsoft was going to get in on the game, they would need something that incorporated a gyroscope and accelerometer. Microsoft could do it.

"For the Tiger team I think it's huge for us. Something like that fits like a glove. For a golf game it fits perfectly. You don't even need to think about it. You're holding the controller in your hand. It feels like a club. It's shaped like a golf club. You can do that natural motion. It's not like a shooter where you have to run around and still have to use an analogue stick. You can really feel like you're playing golf in your living room. I think that's a huge advantage for golf games and games in general."
