Sony details PS3 moton controls

Provided by G4TV, Sony has released a list of some more details about their upcoming unnamed Wiimote killer:

• Scheduled to launch in Spring 2010.
• It will hit market with a "range of first-party and third-party content."
• The new controller functions "with any games across all genres from casual to core."
• The "face-tracking and head-tracking capability already in the PS3 SDK" will offer developers "powerful tools for new types of user interaction."
• Works in tandem with the PlayStation Eye's built-in microphone array for voice input and voice recognition.
• Up to four of the new motion controllers can be tracked at once by the PlayStation Eye.
• Sony is considering combining motion control wand and PS3 controller functions. Here's the example Sony offers; "the motion controller as a sword and use DualShock 3 as a shield."
• It will use a lot of the PS3's power: "motion-tracking library has some SPU overhead and has an impact on memory as well, although these will be minimized."
