PlayStation 3 Motion Sensing Not Coming Soon
But not too soon...
Posted 29 Feb 2008

A head - not moving. At all, awesome.

A Sony representative told SPOnG this morning, "We have no details on the tracking software. As far as I'm aware it was developed by someone at SCEA and was shown at GDC as a technical demo of what is possible with the PS3 and PS Eye."
Potentially, the technology could be used to enable players to "look around" FPSs (for example) without using an analogue stick. For those gamers whose heads tend to unnecessarily twist about as they peer around game worlds, it could save a lot of thumb work.
For those who spend a great deal of time drunk or who own vibrating game chairs, however, Call of Duty 6: Modern Funfair or Resistance 3: Fallen Woman might be slightly more challenging.
No games have been confirmed to use the technology as yet.

It wont and cark work for games like shooters if you move your head around that means you need to still be looking straight at the screen and you will look very stupid.
Unless you are IN the game say Virtually then yeah.

I see it more for looking around corners or quick peeks over crates than full camera/aiming control. For this it'll be quite cool, but you're disadvantaging people without the cameras.
Plus for those of us with projectors, there's better be a huge lead on the camera because my PS3 sits behind me, not under the screen.
