Sony unveils motion-sensing controller for PS3 consoles

COPENHAGEN, March 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Reading about Sony Playstation's announcement at the Game Developers Conference on Cnet, I can't help shaking my head at the amount of wasted time and money, and how it could all be so much more simple! "Sony on Wednesday unveiled Move, its motion-sensitive controller." Let me explain - to the everyday consumer the history reads like this: 2006 Nintendo bring out the Wii, becoming the "first" console with the "nun-chucks" and "motion controls"It is the cheap, looks good and most importantly it works very wellFaced with spending more on an Xbox/PS3, consumers make the obvious choiceSony and Xbox spend the next 3/4 years talking about their own motion control plansThe problem for Playstation is that the "Move" controller looks like a Wii controller (apart from the ice cream ball on top).
