well…. its not terrible…. not great either. I feel like they should have gone with something that would ring true for the softcore community… like Sony Wand, or something to that effect, where with just the name you can imagine what the hell the thing is. Sure, us nerds on the internet will know what it is no matter what they call it, but to try to bring in more customers who don't play tons of games already, and call it Gem, you'll have people going “What the hell is Gem?” and “Who cares?”
December 10, 2009 at 3:08 pm #52112czesionyoMemberSame thing is with Natal tbh. It all depends on the marketing – if ppl will see Gem in TV spots and things like that they will know what is is. Gem is short but it should be smth more connected with gaming.
December 10, 2009 at 3:14 pm #52114barkiemailmanMemberI'd a called 'em chazwozzers I would 'ave.
Oh well, dosen't matter if the name was amazing or not. It's gonna be games that sell that thing for me.

December 10, 2009 at 7:00 pm #52121monkeymoobsMemberi might try out this gem thing but tbh its not anything that appealing to me i would have bought a wii if i wanted with motion control.
December 10, 2009 at 7:32 pm #52123Domba_carMemberMaybe Gem stands for something. G.E.M. ???
December 10, 2009 at 10:05 pm #52138parnakasMembereh.. not the worst name possible.. but nothing cool either.
I just hope Sony doesn't force you to buy one of these.. cuz i know i'm not.
December 10, 2009 at 10:16 pm #52143gow2rulesMemberlets hope they bundle some good games with this and i still prefer the name wizard sticks or wizard wands over gem

I think this motion sensor controller is a bad idea, same with Natal (fail)

Yeah i can see the new Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition coming in a bundle with this for the holiday seasons.
December 11, 2009 at 1:45 am #52157czesionyoMemberI think it's a good idea. Maybe my wife will play some PS after this :D. First she have to agree for me to get it.

At least this control is kind of innovative..
Natal is just the PS Eye.. with nice graphics.. LAME!
i personally hate most of these motion contollers.. i ONLY like the Sixaxis motion thing in Flower.. awesomeness.. but other than that, it is crap (Lair!!). Wii is complete crap because of their terrible controller, and Natal just looks like a fail. Why cant we just keep the current controllers, and work on games?..

pretty much. I guess Sony and Microsoft are aiming for the more younger audience (which includes my age but im not interested in it really) which will get them sales..
December 11, 2009 at 4:10 am #52170gow2rulesMemberit all comes down to money both companies will like at the wii's suscess and try to gain some of that profit this also allows their console to reach to more people such as families who owns a wii and persuade them to venture forth and buy a ps3 for wizard sticks or xbox360 for natal
this can also lead to downsides as shown in wii's falling momentum this year as non gaming people or casual gamers in light of rescent economic times will cut back spending on games while the hardcore always make ways to get their next new game also as with wii most of their games are to be honest crap as companies release any old crap to gain profits in that large market this has been blamed upon sony also when they were accused of cutting getaway and 8days later to make more singstar's and eyetoy
hopefully sony will keep both sides happy with more great games such as maybe infamous compared too some playstation stick mini games
