A few days ago we reported that Sony might introduce a new PSP. Although these are only rumors, it is normal to have them because the E3 expo is due to come in just a few more weeks. There were many reports and sources who said that a new UMD-less PSP is coming at E3 on June 2nd, however, this is not the only product that Sony will unveil. According to a trusted source, Sony is going to launch a motion-sensing remote especially for PS3.
The source says that Sony is in talks with many third-party game developers in order to introduce a simple new feature into their upcoming games in order to be compatible with the PS3 motion-sensing controller. E3 is coming and it’s the perfect way to release a product to rival against the Nintendo Wii Remote, and the soon to be released, Wii Motion Plus. The problem is that we don’t know if Sony’s PS3 motion-sensing device is better than Nintendo’s products.
I have to say that Sony is a little hypocrite as when Nintendo’s Wii remote was released, they criticized it and laughed at it. However, Nintendo proved them wrong and the Wii Remote has become the most successful-selling accessory in the US and beyond.
For the moment, Sony declined to comment just like they did when asked about a new UMD-less PSP. Well, now are waiting for E3 to open its doors. I hope we will see some interesting stuff there.
this would be awsome for ps3 i would play final fantasy 13 with it
I could care less for motion controls like the Wii. Just because Sony has patents on motion control technology (like many other gadgets) doesn’t mean it will ever see the light of day. Way to jump the Sony-hating bandwagon and calling them ‘hypocrite’ solely based on rumours. Not even the SIXAXIS is hypocricy since Sony patented it back in 2001 and motion controllers existed way before the Wiimote. Remember the Le Stick from Atari 2600? Microsoft had a motion controller too back in the 90s. Motion control is nothing but a gimick. Just because Wii has taken off so shockingly doesn’t suddenly make it “innovative”.
