Update: Despite THQ CEO
Brian Farrell recently calling it Arc, according to
Geoff Keighley's
Tweet, to quote: "FYI I'm hearing Arc is NOT the name of the Sony Motion Controller, but a code name." However, Sony has
registered the Arc trademark in Japan.
Today VG247.com (linked above) reports that according to a concrete source speaking under conditions of strict anonymity Sony's PS3 Motion Controller will be named PlayStation Arc, of which a domain has also been registered in the same name at PlayStationArc.com.
This news comes just over a month after the previous
rumor that the PlayStation 3 Motion Controller was dubbed Gem, which ended up being an early code name for the product.
To quote: "The company is now saying its Motion Controller - the official name thus far - will release "this year": global boss
Kaz Hirai had previously claimed it would be out this March.
The Motion Controller consists of one or two wand devices, each topped with a trackable ball. It works with PSEye.
We've contacted Sony for comment."
SCEE replied as expected: "We don't comment on rumor or speculation."
how did you expect the ps3 to track the Arc's movement?
haha my first thought was of KZ2 as well! And i prefer Arc over "gem", "wand" or "sphere" !!
I'm more interested in the line up of games that they wil have though...
