Guitar Hero 6 to use motion tech?

Neversoft on motion tech: "ask me the same question next year"
Guitar Hero developer Neversoft has expressed interest in exploring Microsoft and Sony's upcoming motion control tech for the future of series.

When quizzed by CVG on what's left to explore in the Guitar Hero series, product lead, Brian Right gave us a bone.

"There's still lots of interesting stuff that we can do with the series. I mean, I'm not talking formally but all the motion control stuff from Microsoft and Sony looks really interesting. This is just off the cuff, but it looks interesting," he said.

"Ask me the same question next year." We will, if Activision will let us.

So expect to see GH 6 with full natal compatibility and no need to buy the expensive accessories. Sounds like something Activision would do, doesn't it. :wink:

no flash they will releases an evermore expensive peripheral that natal will be able to detect so it can track out around the room pulling off rock stunts.

Motion Tech for Guitar Hero 6 next year?

We'll be on atleast GH9 by that time.

You could virtually 'smash' your guitar.

AIR GUITAR HERO \m/ O \m/

It's certainly one of the more obvious uses for Natal, I think.

I doubt I'll be buying this years version, to be honest - mostly due to the fact that they've put Elton John on there and due to the poor choices of songs with David Bowie (Fame) and QOTSA (Make it Wit'Chu)....I'm probably a little Guitar-Hero'd out too.

Add to the fact that Activision seem seriously intent on moulding themselves into some evil, dark-hearted corporation that spits on their customers and you've practically guaranteed a 'no-sale' from me.

Mind you, Natal does have me really quite curious and I could be brought back with this kind of stuff (I know, I know - I am that sad).

:wink:

Think of all the ornaments you would break in your living room trying to impersonate Van Halen, not to mention pulled hamstrings!.

Damn - I would love to do that in real life....never had the heart to do it to any of mine.

The Telecaster has come very close on a few occasions though.

As if I dont look like enough of a douche wielding A plastic guitar and wincing with concentration now I have to do the same with an air guitar??. In all honesty though this will either come to nothing or just be extra points for backflipping through the solo over your sofa.
