Sony PS3 Motion Controller Delayed till Fall 2010

[Rock Raiyu]

Sony's still unnamed motion controller for the PS3, originally believed to be set for a Spring 2010 release, has been given a new release window.

SCE today announced that the controller will become available in Japan, Asia, North America and Europe this Fall. That places the controller's release sometime from September to November.

The company hasn't said anything about the delay. The announcement also reiterated that the PS3 motion controller will launch with a robust lineup of supported games, although no specific titles were mentioned.

Its going to fail anyway. Its an embarassment to the company. All it says to the world is "look we don't have any original ideas." If I ran Sony I'd dump the project and stick to producing hardcore games.

They are delaying the inevitable, seriously Sony, how many gamers who own the PS3 will get this?

 

[Deleted_171835]

Meh.

I doubt anyone is going to purchase this, anyways. :/

 

[Snappo]

Looks like the guys gonna throw it at his TV anyways lol.

 

[anaxs]

"We at SCE think that we should delay this project to attempt to make it look like less of a child's toy, magic wand, or Wii Remote, as well as attempt to convince hardcore gamers that this is entertaining. The first game to have this is Kingdom Hearts III, Final Fantasy XV and Dragon Quest XI."

^LOL JK^

He he he.

Grammar Nazi.

Seriously, this is dumb. At least Microsoft is doing something unique with Project Natal. This is like the Wiimote!

Seriously .. What the fuck.

At least it's not a shameless rip off of the Wiimote.

Sony on the other-hand just released a stupid copy of the Wiimote hoping to appeal casual gamers.

I'd rather not cater to them.

Casual gamers bring shovelware like whores bringing STDs.

This is going to put them at odds with Microsoft's NATAL.

 

[Chris_Skylock]

You've got to be kidding me. This is the worst product ive ever seen. Atleast Natal is something cool to do and a more advanced than using to dildo-like things.

 

[C175R]

wow...I always liked Sony's product more than Microsoft. but if it is this Motion Controller VS NATAL then Sony got his ass kicked and then raped by their own Dildo like Controller.

 

[Joe88]

do people not understand its a prototype model and is subject to change design based on user reviews?

 

[BAHIM Z 360]

What the hell kind of design is that sony!? IT LOOKED MORE LIKE A DILDO THAN A MOTION CONTROLLER DAMN IT!!!

Who the hell gonna buy that anyway?

 

[Maz7006]

The only reason why im really not looking forward to this is because its just gonna be cool for like the first 10 mins or so and then you start having that feeling of regret on why on earth you bought it.

I'm guessing the same thing will apply to that camera/natal/motion sensing crap for the 360.

I had that felling when I bought the eye toy (then I changed it since I found it it could be used as a PC web cam which I did for a while)
also the donky konga bongo's
various guitar hero and rock band accessories

 

[Algot]

Had anyone seeing the FINAL design of the controller? or is everyone refering to the teckdemo design? Sony did the "Natal" thing when they did the Eye Toy. I think having a controler and a button to press combinde with motion detection is a great move.
