Revolutionary Projects

Well, it's time to talk again about those projects.

Do you remember NEAR?
"New Environment Applied to Reality"
And, as you can know, before E3 '06 I was talking about a new secret. This secret was one of the (project) NEAR's ideas. And, as I said you, this secret is in the controller and is about Environment. And know, after the E3 '06 you had view this secret of NEAR... don't you know what I'm talking about? It's easy, this was the NEAR's secret:

Yes, that thing above the buttons "1" and "2" is the NEAR's secret. It's logical. With that, the sound is more near to you. And yes, the sound is part of the environment of a game. This is one of the ideas of NEAR project.


And now, how this will change the way you play games?
Imagine you're playing Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. When you charge your shoot, you will hear that sound in your hand, in your controller.
Imagine "Wiintendogs". When the dog is far to you, you will hear the barks in the TV, but, when the dog is near to you (you're touching it) you will hear the barks and growls in your controller.

You can see... in some way, you will touch the things, you will touch the sounds in the air. Touch the air... remember that? yes, this is certainly the secret of NEAR. And this will change the environment of the games more than a 5.1 audio.
And more than that. This will be part of the gameplay. A little creativity of the developers and you will interact with the sounds of the controller. They can make "audio-games".

You know, it will be too revolutionary.


And now, let's talk about other project. You've heard about Project Reality in the last days. The Project that began with the N64. The ideas of the Project Reality are a great source for the project RS. Remember what RS is? It's Reality Simulation.
With RS, you will have this Reality Simulation, and the controller of the Wii is the big part of this project. But yes, there are more than the Wii-remote. I've said you "Think outside the box" because outside the box is the most important part of the Revolution.
But I wonder what is "inside the box". May be it's time to investigate this part.
If the Project Reality was about inside the box, I think the RS will take some of these researches.
But a thing is true. The RS is a great project. But there are more ideologies than these projects. And all together, are the Revolutionary Project. The DS and the Wii.

More is coming...

Great!
I'll be looking at this page.
I'm wondered about how what you've said is becoming true.
