I do not know. I was just basing things off 80% of the games that I've played on Wii, and all it does is detecting your pointer. From the tip of your pointer to the sensor bar in front.

Back to the topic, LWP will get here when it gets here. I don't think taking anybody's word is safe right now.
Since sceduled often seem to be changing alot these days.

It's something best use for power point presentation, or something.
.
? How bizarre, usually its the ir camera aspect of the wiimote that gets ignored, not the tilt action or gesture controls. Weird.

Call me crazy but im thinking its going to say a little bit more about the weather then just the current conditions. Im guessing a forecast for the next week perhaps? Why complain, its free. I for one am looking forward to this. I would love to get the news on my PS3 without having to use the browser.

Nomatter how much it seem like it's detecting your motion, it isn't.
All it does is connecting point A to point B.

I believe I have played this game you speak of. Once.

The Wii remote has both pointing and tilting, if you don't believe me go play Excite truck. You hold your controller sideways so that it's not even pointing at the sensor bar and you steer by tilting the controller left to right, and you can tilt it forwards and backwards to either raise or lower the vehicle during jumps.

I'm looking forward to Life with Playstation, but whenever it gets here is fine by me. It's a weather/news app. Cool, but am I going to get angry at Sony because it hasnt arrived? No, I just find that silly...

Here's why I think it's cool. If you are travelling to another country, you could find out what is the biggest news there and prepare yourself days ahead in terms of current events and weather.

A friendly reminder, never EVER run folding@home on a computer without permission from the owner. We're piecing together the story of how [H]ard|OCP lost over 12 Million points overnight from one user having his account zeroed out. This isn't the first time its happened.
