The software of the tech demos looked a bit primitive, although it showed the hardware was pretty much working.
Of course, it will never take off this generation, much like the 360's.

You mean the Sony anal wand? The one that is in early engineering development? I thought that tech demo was a total piece of shit. It looked very unprepared. I think Sony had that demo as a backup in case Microsoft or Nintendo had major news, and they did. Looks like Sony has really fallen behind with the motion control stuff.
It's not a coincidence that Sony chose a hypothetical release date for their anal wand motion control system that is similar to Microsoft's.
Earl noticed the problem that when using the Sony anal wand you can't move your character. Notice in the demo how character was stuck in place? Seems like Wii nunchuck is an essential and important part of controlling with motion sensors.
I think Microsoft has something that is a Wii-topper. Possibly. But there are still major limitation with not having buttons or axis to a joypad. This Sony thing is just a blatant Wii ripoff intended to compete with the competition though.
