OK. Guys I speak Spanish and there's an important mistranslation in the second page. It says that the 'fixed' cameras are there, not that the camera control is there. The untranslated sentence talks about the fixed camera angles being set up so the player can see the level and tell what there next step should be.

I really wonder which old characters will make cameos? I hope they won't rape their designs.   

Agreed.  Enough design-sodomy has occurred already with that Judgment debacle.

Someone should ask David if "status ailments" will return (poison, curse, etc.)

DAMN. David is not afraid to speak his mind! We need more developers like him around, I like his style! I'm glad they voted against motion control, I think that would be too wacky for this game. Then again, I'm getting the 360 version so it probably wouldn't have affected me anyway. :P

Untrue, 360 has it's own motion control. If they took up Move, there would probably be a good chance they'll take up Natal.

I never said it wouldn't. I think all this movement crap sucks, so pretty much anything using it sucks. Haven't really seen a good one yet. And anything decent (like Metroid Prime and RE4, where you use it to aim only) is done better with a mouse.

Though I did have a typo in my last post. Change was supposed to be chance.

Aiming with the wii remote (esp. with a gun attachment) is just as easy as with a mouse and feels more natural.
There are plenty of good games with motion control that are fun, so that shouldn't in and of itself keep you from playing any game.
However, I agree that any serious action game would dump the motion controls because they have yet to match up to the fluid and speedy response of good old fashioned buttons.

So, you're basing how awesome a control based on one game with a very specific type of fans?

no... Im sayin that when playing a game where the motion controls are as well done as in PGA 10 you should be smart enough to know that they work and work incredibly well when the developers put the effort into usin em correctly

I've never played PGA, but as it's a golf game, I'm guessing, like... pretty much all the other Golf games, it has pretty simple movements. And if that's true, that's hardly an accomplishment, unless they actually make it so you can move your golf club move around like a sword and swing at random or something with deadly accuracy.

lol thatd be awesome. But no go read some reviews of PGA 10 on Wii and youll see. The motion controls are amazing. Its more of a golf sim than a golf game
