Will they be splitting their development base? Games that use this controller and games that don't. This might make the PS3 harder to develop for. A concern but that's all. I like the tech demo, the accuracy needs tweaking, but i understand it's a demo. I guess it would all depend on the games. I've got a wii and haven't played it in 5 months. So it is the games that matter. The tech is very interesting but it brings up 2 questions to me.

It has a tripod thing that sits by the tv as well. That's how it knows where the controller is in 3D space like when he ducked behind the box in the paintball demo.

I din't know this existed even. I'd most probable get it, especially if there are cool casual games to enjoy using this control scheme I’m actually impressed… I din’t know this existed even.

I'd probably get this one too. Does anyone know if it is just accelerometer based (like iPhone or six-axis) or also infared like the Wii? I really doubt this controller would be good for much besides casual games, but there is certainly value in that. For some reason I have always bought the alternate controllers.
