Motion sensor tech for PS4 and the future of console controllers

[amazingone]

Is there going to be a PS Move / Kinect type of device at launch for PS4? It seems to be the future of not only gaming but computing. Pretty soon we will consider controllers and mice for computers to be relics of the past. Are we nearing the point where consoles will be released with only a motion sensor device to control the game instead of the traditional controller?

Does the Playstation Move even work on the PS4, or did they simply forgot about the whole thing? I don't blame them anyway, i tried that thing and it was definitely a one-use thing.

There's what you call a PS4 camera which would cost $60. It would function like the Kinect I think. It's not bundled in every PS4 like Microsoft did with the Xbox One. Also, not a lot of gamers are thrilled with the Kinect. That's why Sony opted not to go this route. I think you're into motion control games like Just Dance? Then buy the camera. Or maybe just go for the Xbox One. If you're more into a pure gaming experience without worrying about motion controls, then the PS4 is the best bet.

It's going to happen in the future, but I can't see that happening right now. Mice and keyboard are here to stay for at least 10 more good years before we can create something revolutionary as an alternative to it.
