At E3 no big surprise was Sony’s unveiling of an updated portable gaming controller, the PSP Go. Big surprise was the unveiling of a motion-sensing device to combat the Ninetendo Wii and Microsoft’s new Project Natal. \n

The PSP Go, Hirai says, will feature 16 gigabytes of internal Flash memory; built-in Wi-Fi; integrated Bluetooth and a new system, Media Go, which will be the application used on the PSP Go to access the PlayStation Store. It is expected to be available on October 1 in the U.S.\n

The Sony motion-sensing system is still in the deveopment stage and won’t be available until the spring of 2010. The controller has a real one-to-one relationship between the person wielding it and what is seen on-screen. And it also offers tension-based control, such as pulling back the string on a bow to shoot an arrow.\n
