Yay! Could we hope to see a proper swordfigting game... finally? Not those ones where people are hitting each other with blunt shiny sticks of ridiculous shapes, with little visible effect, subtracting "hitpoints", but a proper fencing game based on realistic moves, designed by someone who actually cares about sword fighting.
As a PS3 Move owner, I would like to play something like that with a move controller - there is already a game "fight - lights out" that is reasonable enough boxing simulator, now fencing... please!
