Tilt sensitive tiltBoard module going big for Xbox 360

via engadget

Although the Wiimote (and the SIXAXIS, under certain conditions) already enjoy the luxuries that tilting can bring, it looks like those sticking with Microsoft's console will now be able to get in on fun as well. Thanks to a partnership with "specialist peripheral makers" Talismoon, the highly-regarded tiltBoard is reportedly getting an commercial makeover as it readies itself for "mass production." Details are admittedly scant right now, but the forthcoming product -- "which will bring tilt sensitivity for the Xbox 360 to the masses" -- is said to be "worth the wait" from its presumably jovial creator. And if you can't visualize just how spiffy it'd be to control your 360 titles without touching the analog or D-pad, be sure to click on through to see what the tiltBoard can do for you.

Who wouldn't have done it, if not for the Wii. Seems they both copy.

Get your ƒucking facts straight. Tilt came out before the Wii. Nintendo copied Sony. In like 1999 or around there, there was a playstation controller that had motion detection. So get your facts straight you pricks.

I do like sony, i'm not gonna deny that, but I hate it when people don't get their facts straight! Rumors and crap are stupid. If your going to post wrong information, atleast back yourself up!
You could also say, hey xbox is coping sony with the whole elite thing, sony did the first slim/extra version of the same system. But that is WRONG. Nintendo/Sega did that, i can't remember which came first. There were like 3 different super nintendos and genesises.

fanboy alert! who cares dude. i really don't need a motion sensor on my 360. that is why i am also getting a wii, so i can have the best of both worlds, rather than a mishmsh crossover that is ps3. i know sony patented motion sensing way back but nintendo didn't "copy" them. the wii is sort of like a giant ds and nintendo were the first to prperly make the motion sensor. i honestly think ps3 wan't going to have it then sony jumped on the bandwagon.
