Wand, Sphere, Gem. I like Gem best, and apparently, so does Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello, who may very well have leaked the top-secret name for Sony’s 2010 motion control device this morning at a conference in New York.

“In the coming year, both Sony and Microsoft have announced new controllers. Motion sensor controls, Natal and Gem, these are likely to bring new consumers into the marketplace,” he said when talking about console pricing and innovation at the UBS 37th Annual Global Media Conference.

Sony has since gone on the record to say that “no official name for the PlayStation motion controller has been announced,” with EA refusing to verify Riccitiello’s comment.  I love leaks like this, they get the whole internet talking…

Meh. Could be much better.

Gem???? red nose sounds better and it fits on the looks too!!!

Gem doesn't sound mainstream at all in my opinion.

But I can get used. Now leak some games :P

i hope ps embarrasses EA, and says no actually it is called PS-Sphere, am much netter name IMO.
Gem makes it sound like this truly is aimed at girls, i won't mind, but i can't see any males wanting to hold it if it is called Gem.

i like The sound Of Gem.

I personally hope that this guy is wrong. That name is really dumb.

Games for Gems ?
btw whats Natal going to be called? since its Project Natal i thought they might change the name.

I liked the name 'Dildo' the best.

Of course you would!

Meh. Gem sounds dumb. It's not even cool-dumb like Wii. It's just dumb. "Hey, let's go play Gem!". Nah.

Ehhh... is this really it?
