This is kinda old news, but I just found out about it. A little thing called head tracking using the Wiimote and sensor bar. I could explain it…but…just watch. It’s the shit. NO special effects edited in.

Pretty amazing. No games support it yet, but I can definitely see this being implemented either via add on peripherals this generation, or built in functionality next generation. Things like Google Maps Street View would be other good uses for this technology. Exciting times!

Wow. That is pretty amazing! I agree it would be really awesome to have this applied to Google Maps. You could see every part of a location before even visiting it!
