Game hardware maker Razer has been around for more than a decade but has built a big gaming peripherals business in the past four years. Yet the Carlsbad, Calif. company wants to be much more than a high-end gaming mouse company. It wants to make everything associated with the gamer’s lifestyle. I caught up today with Min-Liang Tan, the company’s chief executive, today at our GamesBeat 09 conference, where he spoke on the gaming hardware panel.
Tan is trying to execute on a vision for the future of much better, more intuitive user interfaces for games. Inspired by the Nintendo Wii’s gesture-based controller, Tan said we aren’t far away from new advances in user interfaces. Here’s our video interview, shot by Alexa Lee of Ooyala.
