GDC: 60 Minute PS3 Motion Controller Demo

A session called ìIntroducing the PlayStation 3 Motion Controllerî has been added to roster of GDC 2010 talks.

“Introducing the PlayStation 3 Motion Controller” will be an hour long session dedicated to Sony’s PS3 motion controller.

David Coombes (Platform Research Manager, SCEA Develope, SCEA) and Kirk Bender (SCEA Developer Support, SCEA) will lead to showcase on Thursday (March 11) from 3:00pm to 4:00pm in Room 121, North Hall.

The session description explains, “The soon to be released Motion Controller for PlayStation 3 will allow developers to create new game play experiences, by allowing players to interact with their console in high definition using their bodies. The Motion Controller uses 3D position and orientation tracking, camera input and a controllable RGB LED to bridge the gap between camera, motion and traditional interfaces.”

New talks on Deus Ex 3's "cyberpunk renaissance" look, Silent Hill producer Akira Yamaoka's ethos, and Batman: Arkham Asylum's art direction were recently added to the bill for GDC 2010.
