PS3 controller will have motion sensors. I wonder where they got that idea.

http://www.gamespot.com/e3/index.html Low res videos of screen conference are up.

The cheaper $500 version of the PS3 won't have an HDMI port, no WiFi, and no memory card slots. An even bigger ripoff than the xbox core pack.

Controller is wireless with USB jack for wired play but no rumble. It detects 3 axes of rotation and 3 axes of acceleration detection. Whether it includes position monitoring or accurate aiming on screen is unclear. The controller demo in the press conference looked awkward as fuck. They did mention something about it only having it for two weeks so the demo was probably thrown together quickly. If it really is only two weeks old I don't see how any games can really take advantage of it if they stick to the November launch date. Except for the one about the yellow blob.

They said the PS3 Madden would be revolutionary. Given what was in the Time magazine article about the Wii Madden, I have my doubts.

$500? For the cheap one?

That tears it, I'm getting a Wii just to spite them.

The PS3 will enable your characters to be less black!
