A quick visit with Sega brought us up to speed on "MadWorld," the Wii-based violence-fest we've been following for a while. For the first time, Sega allowed us to go hands-on with the blood-soaked brawler, to see how it feels to turn a Wiimote into a chainsaw.

Across the gaming exhibits at last week's CES, one word seemed to dominate the field when it came to tomorrow's interactive entertainment technology: Immersion. From 3D glasses to 3D controllers, the Las Vegas Convention Center was packed with innovative new ways to overwhelm one's senses through an inside-the-game perspective.
