Sony Reveal Sixaxis Already Getting Updated

Although a rumbling Sixaxis may still be further away that most expect Sony have revealed that they are already offering small updates for their controller, namely refining both analogue sticks and the motion-sensor to offer enhanced playability.

“We have not added rumble to PS3, and have no announcements regarding this feature,” SCAA Dave Karraker stated when questioned. “From time to time, we make minor enhancements to the controllers for our platforms. We recently sent out to the development community some new prototypes that have a slightly enhanced sensitivity for the analogue sticks and the motion sensing within the Sixaxis controller.”

He went on to stress that “This is not a new controller, but is part of the normal development and evolution of controllers.”
