    I have played a lot of Tetris over the year and am extremely familiar with how it functions and its many intricacies even differences between different versions. This should make it easy for me to work with as I am so familiar with It and will be able to predict how it will interpret and work with alternate input methods. I think an alternate controller could enhance the experience by making it more tactile as well as possibly being a sort of challenge mode. The idea of creating a piece to physically rotate in the real world to match the actual rotating of the piece was part of my motivation for working with this game. Some questions would be, How intuitive is your idea? and Will it make the game harder in an unfun way?

    Pac-Man is extremely simple and its something everyone can understand and play so an alternative control method should also be easy to understand since people will spend less time struggling with the game. An alternate control method would add a well needed bit of spice to a game so many people are familiar with and would make them view it in a different light. The simple 4 directions of movement means all kinds of movement gestures int the real world should translate well. Some questions include: Is Pac-Man too simple? and Will an alternate controller actually add to the experience?
