“Sony just announced the rumored new motion controller for the PS3 — the prototype looks like a wand with a color-changing ball on top. It’s designed to work in conjunction with the PlayStation Eye, with the wand overlaid on-screen with a weapon or tool. Unlike Microsoft’s Project Natal, Sony says they’ve learned “some experiences need buttons,” which is why there’s still a controller involved. The system is said to be “sub-millimeter” precise, and it was demoed drawing and playing a shooter — it’s sort of the middle ground between Natal and Wii Motion Plus. Sony says it’ll launch in the spring of 2010, but we don’t know what pricing will be like yet.” by Engadget
Well this is not as spectacular as the post I made before at first view but it will probably have more future in the video games industry than Project Natal. But that’s just my opinion.
Watch the video and give me your opinion too…

I don’t think and don’t want motion control to become the mainstream gameplay in games but was pretty impressed with Sony’s demo and agree that even though Natal was more advanced, Sony will make much better use of their system.
I think sony is too late to the motion gaming party
