sony should just keep cutting the price

COuld be good depending on how well it actualy is and how well it's implemented as a plastation product.

Like Chrono said splitting up your hands was a solid step and i'd welcome it. As far as just using it to add accelerometers it doesn't seem like it would be worth it. Add the IR so we can have Wii-like FPS controls for R2 or KZ2. That would be pretty solid and i'd definitely grab that.

Well since it was said about wiimote sometime ago...........

IT'S A GIMMICK!!!!!!!!!!!

@azrm--if they did that then the controller would be great, i really hope FPS on the wii becomes more common, that pointer is great and trump sticks every time

Copying the Wiimote is generally a bad idea. Why would I get a PS3/360 for motion games when they have little such games to offer, and higher costs when I could get a Wii which has every game motion controlled, IR, plus balance board, wii wheel, 'lightgun' and lord knows what else they'll introduce this year and is cheaper to boot? Graphics? Not a seller for the mass market.

If they do show a split apart controller, it's because they dug it out of Nintendo's trash can.

I think it's safe to assume that Sony wouldn't release a motion controller without the software to support it , Getaway and Eight Days wern't cancled for no reason I believe ( and didn't the article say something to effect of.. ) there needs to be a redistribution of resources to meet Sony's change in strategy.

The only real cost disadvantage Sony will experience from releasing Wii-Type games are the cost of the Blu-Ray , I don't think developing SMG for the PS3 would have cost anymore for the PS3 than it did the Wii if the developers actualy know what they are doing , in most cases they will as casual games are usualy more generic/simple in nature and don't really need to push the hardware.

It's ironic because the pesimistic view you hold is similar to those who criticised the Wii and said that it could never succeed.

 @HellFish , why would that matter ? Nothing about Nintendo Wii is actualy new .

Can someone define gimmick please it’s been used a loot lately?
