Quantic Dream’s David Cage expects the DualShock to mark "the end of an era" for conventional video game controllers, saying that he hopes new devices "will open new ground" for game development, but that he doesn’t know whether "Kinect or Move are the ultimate answer."
"That was a very interesting experience," said Cage speaking in a recent interview with CVG and commenting on Quantic Dream’s Move-compatible re-release of Heavy Rain.
"We learned a lot doing it. We need some time to think about it and see how we can crate even more exciting experiences. Maybe there will be more devices in the near future in the same direction but which work slightly differently that will open new ground.
"I can clearly see how DualShock is the end of an era and we need to move to something else as an industry. I don’t know if Kinect or Move are the ultimate answer.
"It’s up to console manufacturers to bring a new device. But something will happen, hopefully soon."
More ways of interacting with our consoles, David? Can’t we just have our buttons back?
All eyes are on Nintendo to deliver the next form of video game interaction as we gear up to E3, where it’s rumoured that the video game giant may be unveiling a successor to its Wii console, which first introduced the concept of motion control back in 2006.
David Cage’s latest game Heavy Rain is available now exclusively on PlayStation 3.
