Today Microsoft has announced a new technology that will rival Wii, also using motion-sensing to play video games but with no controllers. At least without the use of controllers, there will be less object orientated injuries in the emergency ward… Look, I’m not a video game console kind of gal, but I have been witness to it on many occasions and will make it clear that I have won by a mile against my lawyer friend on Wii bowling… hey, I thought that was worth a statement, it’s something to be proud of! ;) But in all seriousness it may just be better than the Wii, in fact an article I read today on TIME.com stated, ‘it may just kill the Wii’.

Of course as always, the success of Microsoft’s new baby depends on whether developers take it on board and write some decent games for it. Can I make a suggestion? Include a bowling game and I may just buy one…
