Virtua Tennis gets tilty on PS3

[wraggster]

We've been sent some nice visual diagrams and a bit of blurb this morning on Virtua Tennis 3's freshly announced employment of the PS3 controller's tilt action.

You can use the tilt action to move your player (tilt the controller forward to move a sports star forward, left to move them left etc.) and also to perform a variety shots and serves - in a similar way to a tennis racquet, and without using the buttons or analogue sticks, explains Sega.

Will it be as good as Wii Sports? Let the debate begin!

Its really dumb unless you hold the PS3 like a bat (Wiimote) and then swing it... Why tilt to have your player move back and forward???

I think thats why the Analog and D-Pad were made.. Pointless innovation unless Sony makes flying similators then they will rock my world..

Stuck between Wii and Sony
Wii is winning
