<p>Iron Galaxy Studios demoed their new motion controlled title, <em>Wreckateer</em> during the E3 opening&#8217;s Microsoft Press Event. The first thing I noticed when it was being shown was that it had a striking resemblance to <em>Anrgy Birds</em> and <em><a href="http://armorgames.com/play/3614/crush-the-castle">Crush the Castle</a> </em>as players use catapults to bring down goblin-infested castles in an attempt to exterminate them(vis-a-vis <em>Angry Birds&#8217;</em> evil pigs). What sets it apart from these games however, is the use of hand motions to control firing and movement of the projectiles as well as the fact that it adds a third dimension to the castle smashing formula. We saw swipes being used to tilt the motion of thrown rocks in mid-air as well wide sweeping gestures to split a shot into four smaller ones.</p>
<p>This is the quintessential pickup-and-play experience and likely to be target to a casual games crowd. I&#8217;d put my money on this being an XBLA release though no information was given about its release date.</p>
