One of them is the PS3-Xbox 360 duel, which he believes to be a challenging ordeal for Microsoft. The Xbox creators may be up in sales right now, but the PS3 still has one huge ace up its sleeve - the fact that it's PlayStation.

Who needs the Wiimote when you can just use... nothing at all? That's the principle behind the motion-sensing camera tech from 3DV, and it looks like Microsoft wants first dibs on it. Are we going to see a new peripheral for the Xbox 360, or are they hunting for tech to put into their next Xbox console?

We scored an interview with Clark Stacey, Vice President of Smart Bomb Interactive, the folks who brought us Snoopy vs. the Red Baron on PS2, PSP and PC. Clark was nice enough to answer our questions and divulge the first details of Snoopy's brand new adventure, DLC, multiplayer, gameplay mechanics, and brand spanking new screens lie just a click away!

You'd think the Wiimote would be the ultimate controller for shooters, but having to switch between the D-pad and the A button every time you change weapons just makes for clunky gameplay.

The solution? Slap a track ball on the A button! And that's just what AcidMods did. Check out a vid of their latest mod after the link.

Another thanks to Mark for the tip off!

Gametrak Freedom. I don't know about you, but I think Wiimote sounds catchier. Gametrak Freedom is the name of the new motion-sensing controller for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. So what does it look like? Take a guess and click on the link below.

And a big thanks to ISOHaven for the tip!

Find out more about them in our full article after the jump.

Recent development concerning Microsoft's rumored motion-sensing controller have led many to believe that "Newton" is in the works by Gyration, the same company behind Nintendo's Wii Remote. However, rival group Motus has surfaced to mix things up a bit. Learn all about it at the full article.

Juicy details are overflowing to incite speculations on what motion-sensing controller Microsoft has in store for the Xbox 360. This time, there's an actual patent and an image of the rumored device to base on. See them all at the full article.
