Functional bayonet lug in a Wii version, and somebody's gonna be impaling their flatscreen.

Wow, this thing will build all kinds of "training scars" I didn't think even a video game could cause.

bad gimmick. you don't actually aim with the rifle, so its just a giant, awkward controller.

From the video, it appears to simply be a PS3 controller, shaped like a rifle, that makes toy gun sounds when you pull the trigger.
It does not appear to matter where the gun is aimed. looks like you still control the aiming, and movement with the buttons on the handguard. In short:...The gayest thing ever invented for a video game. (providing my above observations are correct). |

Now if it worked like a light gun, that would be awesome. ETA Time Crisis on PS3 actually has a light gun that has controller buttons mounted on the side and lets you move your character at the same time. It still sucked though. |

I started tinkering on something like this....converting an airsoft m4 into a wii remote.
ETA: ok, after seeing him control the game with the rifle pretty much standing by made this look like crap. At least have it work with the new Sony motion tracker. The wii is a very inferior system when it comes to graphic acceleration and game selection, but when it comes to FPS, it's great. I LOVE playing modern warfare on it because of the intuitive controls. Maybe I should push forward with my design.
