Sony Press Conference (discussion and live stream)

I love how Sony ganked the Wii-mote functionality.
Something everything thought was a gimmick a year ago is now not only interesting, but stolen before it can even be released.

I guess Sony learned the hard way from laughing off the DS?

How ya doing, buddy?

Just call it what is, a TV remote, ok. Can't believe Nintendo stole the TV remote idea from people who've been manufacturing TVs for years, what the fuck is this.

Back off nigga, people called the old PS3 controller a "boomerang" for ages and that name is even goofier.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

And the Wii-mote looks like a remote, only the "re" is replaced by the console's name, "Wii".

Goofy, sure, but as I was saying so was calling the Dual-Shock 3 a fucking boomerang.

How ya doing, buddy?

I have to agree with you guys, gaming is becoming way too expensive as evidenced by these $400-500 console prices and $60 games.

It's becoming a hobby with budget needs akin to building muscle cars or getting a speed boat for weekend rides down the river.

Buying games like FF13 now is looking about as probable as me going down to a Barret Jackson auction and scooping up a '68 Barracuda.

And uh, we need to coin a fun nickname for the new PS3 controller. Playmote perhaps?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
