GDC News: Playstation Motion Controller given new name

by Paul Hickey on March 11, 2010

The Annual “Game Developers Conference”(GDC) is on this week in San Francisco.

Traditionally the event has always served as a networking and demonstrating opportunity for Software and Hardware developers.

With a lot of mystery surrounding the motion control solutions of Microsoft and Sony, a lot of people expected to receive some further details about the technologies.

So breaking news, Sony are first out of the gate and have revealed the name for their motion controller

“The Playstation Move”

Get Moving

The name gives me a general “meh” feeling

What do you think??

We will update the site with any breaking news as we hear it.

Thanks for reading

March 9, 2010

So I’ve not had a chance this week to post the many cool things that I’ve come across, so instead, I’m going to collect them in a single post which I have lazily named ‘The Corner of Cool’. Feel free to kick my ass for being just a little bit lame with it.

Star Wars: In Concert

March 9, 2010

I had no idea what was in store when I arrived at “The Star Wars In Concert” at the O2, and apparently neither did anyone else. Speaking to people after the event, the general consensus was that they had been “blown away” and that it was “even better than expected”. And I must say that [...]

Life’s Full of Thatsh – Head’s Up…

March 5, 2010

17th February will forever be remembered, I’d imagine, as the day the flame went out. Not just on Capel Street after the head shop’s fire was extinguished, but also for head shops getting away with selling the so-called legal highs in the first place.
