Microsoft got the jump on Sony this generation by launching the Xbox 360 a year ahead of the PlayStation 3. Now, Sony is looking to be the first to market in the 2010 battle for motion control supremacy (behind Nintendo), as the company announced today that its new motion controller will release in fall 2010.
Sony says the "tentatively named” motion controller (You mean, that won’t be the name of the final product?) will launch with a slew of games, but the company isn't ready to start sharing info on them just yet. However, as Sony president Kazuo Hirai explained in a statement, details will be coming shortly.
"We will continue to work to have a comprehensive portfolio of attractive and innovative games for the Motion Controller, not only from SCE Worldwide Studios but also from the third party developers and publishers, whom we have been working closely with. We look forward to soon unveiling the exciting software line-up that further expands and defines the PS3 platform as the ultimate entertainment system for the home."
In addition to having plenty of games to choose from, Sony says it plans to “vigorously promote the Motion Controller as the de facto controller of the PS3 platform along with the DUALSHOCK series controller.” Of course, this isn’t that hard to do when you only have one traditional controller and you’re introducing a new one, but you get the point.
