With the wild success of the Nintendo Wii, other gaming devices are trying to get in on the action. Sony will soon be releasing a motion-detecting PS3 controller. The PlayStation 3 is already very popular and since it is also a DVD player as well as a gaming console the only drawback to owning one is its lack of interactivity.
The motion-detecting PS3 controller’s launch has been delayed until Fall 2010 so PS3 owners will have to wait for the wand like controller with a color orb on the end.
