I think it's only great and watchable due to the cameraman's infectious laugh. I'm just wondering how fun it is after you've inadvertently launched your $300 phone across the room or cracked it against your sparing partner's phone.
Does a touch screen work with a crack in it?
I tried swinging the iPod around on the audio cable for that "Yeah, I can use the force" look. It came off and flew across the room alright, but the iPod was surprisingly resilient. No visible flaws from the flight(s).
Next we need someone to take that video, and compumagically add the light sabres coming out of the Iphones... (with a disclaimer somewhere saying 'Buying Lightsaber for your Iphone doesn't include actual Lightsaber. Actual Lightsaber sold separately.')
I wonder how difficult it would be to turn this into an actual two-player lightsabre duelling game? Not necessarily a points-scoring game, just an interactive sound effects plaything.
Bear in mind this new version is basically just an annoying ad for "The Force Unleashed", with the lightsaber app tacked on. Killed the fun for me.
Pfah! It was a blast! For a free app that makes your consumer product into a frickin' lightsaber? Try to sell me whatever you want, I just want to swing my iPod around.
It would actually be very difficult to make it a two player thing. There's no spatial recognition, just acceleration. It's plenty accurate as it is, because you're going to be swinging into the beam cross anyway, and you'll stop in the right place to make the sound.
Unless you're a really bad pretender.
Phlegh! It turns my consumer product into an ad for another consumer product. Plus, the (unlicensed) original had more pretty blade colors. And, oh yeah, NO ADS. I guess Lucasfilm money talks loudly, in vaguely threatening tones.
