Preview: Wii MotionPlus It's time to game!Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 seems to use MotionPlus only for performing draw and fade shots. During your follow-through, you need to twist your wrist left or right in order to make the ball slice. A meter appears on screen (unique to those with the accessory) that measures the slight movements in your grip of the Wii remote.We couldn't tell the difference during an actual swing though. It seemed the Wii remote was just as accurate in detecting our back swing regardless of whether MotionPlus was attached. During our testing with Grand Slam Tennis, the MotionPlus control was even less impressive (or present for that matter). Sure, our player's racket was moving perfectly with our Wii remote before a serve, but that control didn't translate well during actual gameplay. In fact, we found MotionPlus made the game even harder to play. When we took off the device, we had a much easier time keeping the tennis ball in play. As it stands right now, it's pretty clear we're going to get a more intuitive experience with a MotionPlus-compatible first-party Nintendo title. When Wii Sports Resort is available, we'll hopefully be able to properly examine just how well Wii MotionPlus can be utilized. Additionally, we'll update this preview with a full review and score. For now, let's examine the actual attachment itself and how it hooks onto your Wii remote. Tags: Wii MotionPlus, benefit, Nintendo Co. Ltd., game, Nintendo Wii |
