Welcome to Bobby Kotick’s nightmare, a world in which Guitar Hero controllers could be rendered useless, a world in which video games can be played by monitoring muscle actions. A brave new air guitar future! More »
You remember Johnny Lee, right? Sure you do, he’s the man who can make magic happen with the Wii Remote. And it seems he’s bringing his skills to Microsoft’s Project Natal controller. More »
Hey, it’s Johnny Lee! You all remember Johnny Lee, right? Dude’s like Beethoven with a Wii Remote in his hands. Anyways, in an interview with Game Informer, Johnny talks about all kinds of interesting stuff, including the fact he’s less a raving Nintendo fanboy than many of you would like to imagine: I do play video games and I like video games, but I was much more excited about the capabilities of the controller than I was the Wii game console itself. It’s amazingly impressive that Nintendo just allowed the ability to connect it to a computer over Bluetooth, which I think has been great for both the hobby community as well as the research community.

Nothing brightens up a day at Kotaku Tower like JOHNNY LEE, the man who can take a Wii and make magic happen. In this clip, Johnny shows us all how to take a Wii Remote, a sensor bar and a snappy pair of safety glasses, and use them to make a virtual reality display. Fantastic. If you’re the impatient type, the first money shot’s about 2:45 in. [thanks Kdawg!]
