13 PS3 motion control games confirmed for next year, motion-enhanced Biohazard 5 coming Spring 2010

Sure, the company's Tokyo Game Show keynote was a bit of a bore, but in a second press conference for Japanese media, Sony did what it could to make up for it by revealing Biohazard 5: Alternative Edition, the first PS3 title we've heard of to support the new motion controllers -- and better still, it's due out Spring 2010. Also confirmed is the existence of 13 first-party titles with motion support coming at some point next year, including Pain, EyePet and Flower. Both Biohazard 5 (known in the US as Resident Evil 5) and a LittleBigPlanet tech demo were shown on stage, and pics from the announcement are being uploaded now, so stay tuned!

Update: Some new details of the LittleBigPlanet motion control demo from our friend Ittousai of Engadget Japan. In the presentation, one player was playing the normal way via DualShock while a second person was "assisting" by means of the motion control.

More peripherals to purchase! Yay!

[fischju Posted Sep 24th 2009 1:33AM]

It could work with Resident Evil 5, and I'm glad that they made a non-completely stupid design for it. But how many people here know that Biohazard 5 = RE5?

[humanerror Posted Sep 24th 2009 1:38AM]

Thanks for that - i was wandering WTF biohazard was.

[Abdo Posted Sep 26th 2009 6:08AM]

I did, but don't see why the title was changed...

[pika2000 Posted Sep 24th 2009 1:39AM]

So, we have a dildo for him, and a dildo for her. You identify which is which by the color.

...that wasn't funny. Nice try though!

Can't wait for the PS3 Motion Controller! Wonder what catchy name they will come up for it.

[pika2000 Posted Sep 24th 2009 1:50AM]

@Oxyrt23409: Go read the slide. Those are a list of adult games that you can play with the dildos.
Champions of Time, The Shoot, Mr. Pain, I think I said enough.

You wish you were funny...but sadly, you're just not Pika.

Resident Evil 5 not Biohazard 5

[Mushrooshi Posted Sep 24th 2009 2:59AM]

By the way, America is the only country in the world that exists.

[Gregorian Posted Sep 24th 2009 1:49AM]

Holy crap, they're joke names for games, surely.
"Sing and Draw"
"Motion Party"
"Mr PAIN" (I'm getting that one for sure!)
"EyePet"

[John Doe Posted Sep 24th 2009 1:56AM]

Does it ship with a tu-tu and a free download of its raining men?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 2:03AM]

Ah how nice, Flickr integration!

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 2:13AM]

(SONY) so lets make a new controller and make it work on games that are already out instead of making new ones! This is almost as good as an idea of selling a $600 console! We might be on to something!

[B3astofthe3ast Posted Sep 24th 2009 2:31AM]

See RE4 on the Wii and Metroid Prime trilogy.

[Rick James Posted Sep 24th 2009 10:01AM]

Well buddy, you can add MS to the 'thought it was a good idea to sell a console for $600' party. Silly fanboy...

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 28th 2009 2:00AM]

That implies the controllers will be given out for free?? don't put away the wallet just yet, I bet you they are costing more than $9.99...

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 2:21AM]

MORE FUCKIN' GIMMICKY GAMES AND SHITTY PERPIPHERALS TO BUY! HORRAY I AM A MINDLESS ZOMBIES THAT THROWS MY MONEY DOWN THE TOILET!

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 3:02AM]

gratz on finding the caps button ^^

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 7:32AM]

He is a MINDLESS ZOMBIES afterall. Must've been a big accomplishment for him.

[Mushrooshi Posted Sep 24th 2009 2:58AM]

Two of the titles are "Sarugeccho" and "Hasuruukingu".

A bit of Japanese in a nutshell: There are 3 scripts: 2 syllabaries Hiragana and Katakana, and Kanji which stands for parts of words by meaning. Katakana is reserved for foreign words (Steak becomes Suteeki, Ice cream becomes Aisukuriimu, Hotel becomes Hoteru) and for sound effects, and a few other uses.

Sarugeccho and Hasuruukingu are in Katakana, and I assume they are foreign words. However, I do know there are some weirdo things the Japanese do, like make random titles in Katakana for no apparent reason, or state character names in anime/manga in Katakana...

tl,dr; Sarugeccho and Hasuruukingu are supposed to another language, porbably English. I can only guess what they are...

[brushrop03 Posted Sep 24th 2009 6:16AM]

Thanks for that useful info (sarcasm)

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 27th 2009 7:53AM]

Its a game you dick, just figure out what the english word is.

Surrogate?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 3:02AM]

Video links?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 5:30AM]

I hope Sony calls it "The Wang" or something silly like that.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 6:01AM]

I am not a sony fan boy but at least the controller does not look so much like a dildo anymore!

[Sanskrit Posted Sep 24th 2009 9:20AM]

Okay, maybe it's just me, but why does it still look like a henshin wand?

[jj37 Posted Sep 24th 2009 9:22AM]

Is there a male version? lol

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2009 9:24PM]

Is this the final version of the controller? Honestly, to me, it looks kinda...weird.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 26th 2009 7:03AM]

Hi...
I have heard lots of good reviews of "PS3 motion control games " from my friends. I can guess that the may be horrible games with expressively the sprites animations. Thank you so much for sharing such a nice information.

this looks stupid i hope it fails

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 27th 2009 7:31PM]

i can see this kicking the wii in the bin mainly because most of the wii games r sport ones and aren't highly original

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 28th 2009 7:38AM]

When did Sony get into the sex toy business?

[LonnieDVD Posted Oct 25th 2009 12:19PM]

I don't mind games that support motion control, but I hope they keep the basic controller in the loop. Motion control ain't my thing.
