It seems like the world may get motion control for the XBOX 360 after all. Techflash is reporting that Microsoft and CXO J “Don’t call me Jay” Allard have applied for a patent for a “magic wand”, which is purported to be the said motion control device for the 360. Here’s an interesting tidbit……the patent application was originally filed in November of 2007, which is a year after the Wii was released. So while the world has been moaning about how Microsoft and Sony were behind the game on motion control, it looks like at least one of those two started working once they saw the success of the Wii. The question that remains is “is this it?”. Only time will tell.
