We all saw the PS3 'Motion Controller' (tentative name) in action at E3 last year, now Sony have announced that it will ship this coming Autumn. It works in conjunction with a PlayStation Eye camera to 'detect the natural and intuitive movement'.

I'm guessing we can expect lots of Wii ports next Christmas?

"We have decided to release the Motion Controller in fall 2010 when we will be able to offer an exciting and varied line-up of software titles that will deliver the new entertainment experience to PS3 users, " said Kazuo Hirai, President and Group CEO, Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. "We will continue to work to have a comprehensive portfolio of attractive and innovative games for the Motion Controller, not only from SCE Worldwide Studios but also from the third party developers and publishers, whom we have been working closely with. We look forward to soon unveiling the exciting software line-up that further expand and define the PS3 platform as the ultimate entertainment system for the home."
