Hi.  My name is Grant and I'm currently studying to be a games programmer.  I'm in my final year of my course and doing a honours dissertation.  For mine I wanted to do something a little differnt and came up with an idea of working with motion control.  Basically I thought I'd dive into the homebrew community and get some feedback.

I'll explain my idea from the beginning.  Basically I've been told by lecturers to address an issue within the games industry.  Something that can be improved upon.  For weeks I had nothing and then suddenly an epiphony, which was nice.  As you all know motion controls have been in the mainstream eye now for about two years since the Wii was released and since then has been selling like hotcakes.  It was promised to be the revolution of the games industry, to change the way we play games forever.  But two years on its not the case at all, with the massive majority of Wii games being small party games which all use the wiimote in little isolated ways.  There doesn't seem to be any advanced games of the tradition genres, such as FPS or RPG, using the Wiimote in new fgantastic ways to deliever a new experience like no other. 

This is the issue I want to address by attempting to research and create a tech demo of a control scheme using the motion controls of the Wiimote fully.  A good way to put it I find that people understand is what if the next halo had to have motion controls? what will they be like? is it possible?  So basically yeah this is what I want to do and based on the general feedback I get back at the end I would deem it a success or failure and speculate on whether motion controls will in fact one day cahnge the industry completely.

Any info or feedback from you guys will be the best I can get for this project and is extremely appreciated,
