Sensational ControllerNew gamers intuitively move the controller while playing even though that movement has traditionally had no relation to what's going on in the game.

This means that future PS3 games will be controlled by the movements of your hands rather than just your thumbs. For example you might be able to steer a car by holding the controller like a steering wheel.While the PS3 controller looks much like its Dual Shock predecessors it will lack the force-feedback vibration since that would only interfere with the sensing system.
