May 8th 2006 9:53PM Parting Thoughts:
Gyroscopic controller - alright, but it doesn't have the positioning part of the Wii controller, which means you will *not* be seeing the same style of innovative games on the PS3 with it. No swinging a sword for instance. Plus, it's a total ripoff of Nintendo. Absolutely no class.
Price - $500 is what was expected, honestly, and it's not bad, at least if you were planning on buying a Next-Gen DVD player. I mean, figure a blue ray player will cost $300 some time next year, that means I'm getting the console in addition for only another $200 bucks. For those without an HD system though (large percentage of people) absolutely no reason to spend so much on a console, get the Wii instead (or an XBox 360 which will probably price drop $50 on Sony's release day)

Games - They look great, fluid, possibly better than the 360. I'm tired of only flashy graphics though, much more looking forward to Wii (ugh, bad name). The Eye Toy altered-reality game looked neat, but finicky. The Tiger Woods demo and the Heavenly Sword impressed me the most, hopefully the artists will take full advantage of these new animation tools.
