Sony’s new PS3 motion controller – whatever it’s called and whatever it ends up looking like – won’t just be for new games. It might be for old games too!
Sony Computer Entertainment America boss Jack Tretton has told CNBC “I think our [motion]controller can be used with every game that’s on the system now – and every game we’re working on.”
Remember, before you get too carried away, he says “I think”. Not “I know“. “I think” isn’t a guarantee.

What he is probably spinning is that the controller can ‘potentially’ work with all previous games, given a quick patch.

I would also like to see another Heavenly Swords, but make motion controller optional, instead of compulsory.
