New 3rd Party Motion Control for 360

Posted on 24. Mar, 2009 by MattG in Real Talk with the HipHopGamer

The Gametrak Freedom is a 3rd party motion video-game controller being developed by Performance Designed Products (PDP) for the Xbox 360. The device was revealed back in September for both the 360 and PS3, but over the past 6 months the controller has changed dramatically. Currently it is only scheduled to be released on the Xbox 360 this year, and the design went from a black nun-chuck design to the model you see above. There is potential that a PS3 version will be released next year, but so far nothing has been confirmed and no PS3 model has been revealed.

Below is a trailer of Squeeball, a game being developed by PDP that will make use of the motion control:

At GDC they are showing off the new controller and revealing information about the functionality of it. They are working with third-party developers to make games that make use of the controls, and also working on multiple first party titles. Currently there is no price on the product, but expect a Q4 release and more details at E3.
