The first rumors regarding this new Wii like controller appeared a couple of months ago and many people want to know more information and whether these rumors are true. If you head over to JustPlay, they have listed a ‘Wireless Handgun’ named JPG-9003 PS3 2.4GHz Wireless Handgun.

The product features are as follows:

Compatible with PS3 console

players playing simultaneously

Here’s what the gun could look like:

As you can see it breaks apart and maybe this confirms that THIS rumor is true about the ‘break apart’ controller.

“According to gamesindustry.biz, Sony Computer Entertainment is working on a new controller for the Playstation 3. This new controller is supposed to feature a break apart aspect to it for example, it will break into two separate units, each of which contains an accelerometer for ‘Wiimote-like’ motion-sensing functionality.”

“Sony Computer Entertainment will therefore hope that, with the ongoing development of the PlayStation Network, the success of Blu-ray as the de facto next generation standard of video, the gradual roll-out of Home later in the year and the release of additional high definition titles over time, it will be able to overwhelmingly position the PS3 as the best all-round home entertainment unit on the market.”

If anything we are sure to be shown something at E3.
