ps3ww-thumbIt was another eventful week for the PS3 faithful. Hardware-side, we heard a lot about the Sony motion controller. Is it gonna be called Gem? Sony says that’s just a prototype name. What we do know is that they’ve got a lot of attachments patented for the device. Software-wise, we heard more Final Fantasy XIII thanks to its upcoming Japanese launch. God of War III, Dead Space 2, and Dante’s Inferno also came to represent along with more teases about LittleBigPlanet‘s water update.
