Sixaxis picks up an Emmy, and other good news from CES

More news from the CES. This time, it’s for the PS3. Sony‘s PS3 picked up the CES Best of Innovations Award for 2007, PC World’s 20 Most Innovative products Award, Sound and Vision’s Editor’s Choice Award, and a Digital Innovation Award from the Digital Entertainment Group.

The console itself isn’t the only Sony product getting awards, GamesIndustry reports that the console’s Sixaxis Controller managed to get an award too.

The Sixaxis controller has been honoured with an award from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences – the Technology and Engineering Emmy Award.

Oh, and Sony also announced that they’ve already shipped a million PS3 units to North American retailers.

Here’s Jack Tretton, CEO of SCEA, being proud of his big black box:

The overwhelming consumer demand and critical acclaim for PS3 is testament of the platform’s strength and the industry’s desire for a true next-generation entertainment system. …The full potential of this powerful machine has yet to be realized. What you’ve seen so far is just a taste of what will be on the table for 2007 and years to come.
