Who cares? PS3 is overpriced!
PlayStation3=graphics
Wii=Innovation/fun
simple as that.
While it may be true that Sony may have not copied Nintendo with the tilt sensored controllers, it is very suspicious that they suddenly added it onto the PS3 controller as soon as the Wiimote was announced.

no no.

sony copies everything, what do you expect?
I would probably go play video games or have sex (the usual) - Nominus Experse
my mom would be like "ve? yo te dije, el internet no es bueno."

Why not? I would find it suspicious that they suddenly added "motion sensors" in their controller shortly after the Wiimote was announced. It may be coincidence, but not everyone would know that Sony had been planning this since the PlayStation days. Perhaps it was successful back then because of the technology...
Um, let me check that site... Pelican? Sony didn't put out the Tilt Force 2 as you said. No, that was Pelican's doing. Pelican, a 3rd party video gaming peripheral company, made the TiltForce, not Sony. You're misguiding us. If you're going to say that Sony made the Tiltforce, then you are incorrect.

sony didnt copy nintendo, they put out an inferior brand of motion sensing to give people the illusion that they were as innovative. nintendo has had motion sensing technology for a while, going back to gameboy games with tilt sense.
Personally it didnt matter if it was copied, the main thing for this imo is to combat the Wiimote. So they view it as a threat, so copied or not they wanted something to fight against that.
I wouldn't say "Copied". It may have been used to combat the Wii, but it most certainly isn't the same tech. But it was kinda odd how they said "Innovation" a lot during the announcement, and how they aren't interested in gimmicks. AND how they pointed out how you don't need to put anything on the T.V. >.>
YES!!!!!!!!!! Very, very true, That's why I'm getting a Wii and a ton of games for the price of one ps3 without one game!

Sony isn't copying the Wii. They're copying Wario Ware Twisted.
So ... PS3 isn't going to be fun?
I don't know if Sony's copying Nintendo, though their timing is certainly convenient. I don't really care one way or another anyway, I doubt this is something I'm going to use in a lot of games anyway.
no matter how important something might be (ie. a giant meteor is in the sky and threatening the planet) you can always just stop in at the Golden Saucer and gamble on some dodos running around a track.
