It has 6 degrees of motion allowing you to tilt the controller to move the object on the screen (e.g. if you're flying a plane)
I've been waiting for this because I know it's going to torch Xbox 360.... However, given Sony's history, I'm not putting any faith into the price until it actually hits the shelves.... :lol: Funny, the gap between PC and console is narrowing... Edit: if those ARE the prices, I'm sure they'll be a LOT of happy parents out there....
Ouch, that's a budget breaker. I suppose that if I were in the market for a Blu Ray player then it's not a bad deal... but I have no idea if I wan to be in the market for Blue Ray yet. I wonder if they'll have enough supply for launch day.

2 million copies at launch 2 million extra until the end of the year and another 2 million until 31st March 2007 I got the prices off the Sony Press Conference Live (streaming) 1 hour ago. Check out GameSpot... I'm sure they'll have the press conference available for download soon. http://www.gamespot.com/e3/e3live.html
I'm definitely getting one. I've gotten pretty much every console since the original Nintendo. No reason to change now! Of course, with kids and law school, I haven't played my 360 for more than 30 minutes total.
