Sony’s and Microsofts new 3D Controllers

The tracking on this thing looks really impressive(“Sub-milimeter accuracy”).  To take the Wii Experience, but better, and put it on the power of the PS3 is enticing to say the least.

And M$ wouldn’t be outdone by Sony and is also jumping on the Nintendo Bandwagon.  Now what we really should be excited is to see, maybe not this year, what Nintendo is doing to improve it’s system so that it can stay ahead of the competition as they look to enter into a domain and market created by Nintendo.

Secret world MMORPG – Interesting concept, good PR work going on

http://www.darkdaysarecoming.com/

While there isn’t a whole lot of info on their website I’ve dug up a bit of info on this titalating new project from funcom set to be released on the Xbox360 and PC

Instead of leveling up, characters will progress by learning new skills, such as new combat moves, or spells. Nothing was really said in terms of combat, but Funcom did share that it would be a lot more involved than typical MMO fighting, and it will require active participation. As they put it, it will be “the next step from ‘Age of Conan.’” Feeling involved and powerful from the first moment you begin to when you finally learn the horrifying secrets of the world is a big key to the developers, as they don’t want people to have to play for months, just to get to the point where “the real game begins.” The animations and appearance of the skills at your disposal — and the way you activate them — will go a long way toward making the journey just as important as the destination.

Lastly I found this Video that is related to the game, albeit cryptically
