I sat in a presentation by a Wii game team working on a sports game. The devs were 100% confident they could have done 1:1 control if the Wiimote had a gyroscope. Alas, it only senses acceleration. This led to some serious hacks to get it in a decent condition for most people to use effectively. Things like subtracting other natural forces to approximate orientation.
Maybe it could contain a second accelerometer, too. Perhaps it's a better one or just a second to mitigate some of the noise in the acceleration data-- there's a surprising amount of it.
Neither in the article nor in the page does it say review- it's merely his take on the movie, describing the parts he liked, etc. Also, the article notes "serious spoilers," not "a few spoilers," as you say, which I believe there is also difference between.
Worst "review" of "review" I have ever laid eyes on.
Owner: Take this object, but beware it carries a terrible curse! Homer: [worried] Ooooh, that's bad. Owner: But it comes with a free Frogurt! Homer: [relieved] That's good. Owner: The Frogurt is also cursed. Homer: [worried] That's bad. Owner: But you get your choice of topping! Homer: [relieved] That's good. Owner: The toppings contains Potassium Benzoate. Homer: [stares] Owner: That's bad. Homer: [worried] Can I go now?

Radeon. Strike one!
From id I expected a nearly flawless game, but at every corner I get the shitty spikes flowing into my screen. Igot the latest everything and it still glitches.
Shitty spikes, eh? Are you overclocking your video card? Or is it caused by vsync? Knowing what you're talking about (assumption based on how you described the problem) would help.
The sound? I have 7.1 speakers and the game will NOT recognize my superb Surround sound, so I have to listen to the game with my 3 front speakers because the remainin four don't work with this game meaning it wont accept my surround settings.
This could just as easily be a driver problem, sound card problem, or setup problem. Did you try enabling it in Windows instead?
Normally I wouldn't be inclined to reply like this, but your general attitude, coupled with your apparent lack of knowledge (e.g. "shitty spikes! oh noz!"), is annoying.

It's probably a gyroscope.

I sure hope this is coffee I'm drinking.
