Recent Aquaman and Green Lantern talk reminded me of this pre-Chappelle’s Show classic.

Only a few hours ago Sony announced the PlayStation Move…its motion-sensitive controller that is supposed to be a hyper-sensitive version of Nintendo Wii’s WiiMote. We snickered a little at last year’s E3 at the first announcement of this direction for the PS3, not because of the idea, but of the silly-looking controller with the ping-pong ball on the end. The promise of that being just a prototype have been dashed. The controllers that will ship this fall will still have a ping-pong ball on the end, giving Nintendo the advantage in having designed a motion controller four years ago that looks cooler than the one Sony is releasing in six months.
Why the colored ball at the end? The reservoir tip is what the PlayStation Eye camera will see. If you are one of the seven people that already has the Eye camera, then you won’t have to rebuy it. However, it will be a necessary purchase if you want to use your new Harry Potter magic wands. We are guessing you can’t use two of the same color at the same time…how many returns are you anticipating come Dec. 26?
But you are going to be hearing a LOT more about this in the months to come.

A Battle Star Galactica online game is being produced for a fall 2010 release date.
What can we say? Since WOW proved it is the one MMORPG to rule them all, every other online RPG has become an after-thought.
But this game will be both web browser based, and free of charge, so it may stand a chance of catching on. At least it will be a bit different. We’ll see…
