Almost! but now that memegenerator is back online, here's what I had in mind:

I don't understand why he like the light bar so much when its application might be a big down grade from using the current motion controllers, all though having full controls on a motion controller is a good thing it being stuck on a normal dual stick controller doesn't seem like it would work as well. Also, the share button is way better than what he is pointing it out to be. Live streaming will be highly used, I'm sure gamers will love joining in a gaming session with their friend to chat up about the latest game they are playing or even just using it as a way to catch up with them on the fly.


i just dont understand what this will bring that sixaxis didnt. yeah it might be more accurate but so? if im interested in anything its the function to see how far away from the tv your sitting, because they didnt mention why they are doing that yet, so they might have a surprise up their sleve

I don't understand what it could offer that hasn't already been offered either. BUT ... If Sony are going to offer FULL BC through Gaikai at some point, wouldn't the controller have to be compatible too?


thats a good point, but why not just add sixaxis? i doubt it would cost anything really. and i doubt this light for motion control would cost less. also they are still different technologies so they would have to make this new motion tech work with the code or desgining of the games that relied on sixaxis. just because the princaple is the same doesnt mean that you could just replace it without any trouble or work

When was this made?

The 3DS and Vita numbers are off.

Yes, that I agree with too. We know it's going to be more accurate and we know that it will identify the player, but there's nothing it offers that would set it appart ... I don't know about the compatibility issue you mention when streaming. We'll just have to wait and see what all the features of the new controller are. I'm still convinced that screen flips up when you click it.

i meant making the motion controls compatible instead of the sixaxis for ps3 games when streamed.

thats an intersting threory, but why would they make it flip up?

depends what candy.  If it's anything with mint I'm out.  If it's 3 Musketeers I'll spend...999 US dollars.  I also heard they don't let you trade or sell the candy in your DS4 to anyone else.
