Xbox 360 Motion Control accidentally confirmed?!?!?!


In a new developer video over at IGN (I know two blog references in like a minute, but hey they get the best scoops), Ken Lobb the creative director at Microsoft Games Studio, showed a bit of gameplay from the upcoming Rare game Banjo and Kazooie: Nuts and Bults. About half way through the video he mentions "grabbing the wrench and twisting the controller". Now maybe he was saying the controller on the crane Banjo was on top of but with all the rumors that were circulating about Microsoft's possible motion controller (codename Newton) and it's use in Banjo and Kazooie, it's hard not to think he might have slipped up. With E3 less than a week away, we shouldn't have to wait long to see if Ken might have let the cat out of the bag early!


By the way, am I the only one really excited about this game? Take a look at the video and post your thoughts below!
