So it doesn't need the crappy bar thing like the Wii? Nice!
A 1UP user passed along the suggestion that we check the patent records for the name 'Sixaxis' and see what turned up. Scanning the trademark's text it's clear that this could be any number of things (see image above).
However, the term "six axis" has appeared frequently in Sony PR, including multiple times in the May 8, 2006 announcement of the controller's motion sensing functionality:
The controller for PS3 employs breakthrough technology of high-precision, highly sensitive six-axis sensing system that does not require any devices other than the controller itself for seamless interactive operation, thus eliminating additional settings to TVs. With this technology, ways to enjoy PS3 will be further enhanced by accessing PS3 through the network, while retaining the six-axis sensing capability.

meh, its just a wireless control.
and i call my playstation 2 controller mr.
figgy
That's because the Wii has 360's of motion sensing vs. the PS3 controller which basicly has a gyroscope built in (it's really not all that advanced as they want you to think).Originally Posted by Video_freak
Motion sensing has been around for awhile, the dreamcast had it didnt it? or am i just making myself look stupid?
The motion sensing is good but whether you can put it to full use cos its only got restricted movement(6 ways) then you may not be able to, say perhaps slowly turn round a corner at the angle you want?
I duno just dont seem that great yet, but maybe i just need to see it in action
well the problem with motion sensing is youll have to adjust it every time you play or itll be off ....calibration
ps3 no because it doesnt matter where you are
Not realy...
