Question regarding the SIXAXIS sensitivity.

I'm curious to know how responsive or sensitive the SIXAXIS is?  Like if there were games like a fooseball, darts or air hockey in Home, could that really work?  I don't have a PS3 so I cant test for myself :oops:

It's very good.  For the super rub a dub game you have to tilt all angles and the accuracy and sensitivity surprised me.  It's defintley better than some tacked on after thought like some people might think it is.310792

Cool!  But does it respond to side to side and up down movements?  Or just tilts?

Having movement detection would require an IR bar, and seeing how design-centric Sony seem to be, I don't think they would have ever of even thought about including movement. So, tilt it is, but it's still great.

Whats more, because it isn't always needed for a game, rare moments in Resistance where you actually need to use it seem a (for use of a better word) treat.

SIXAXIS = six degrees of movement; tilt left, right, up, down, forward, backward. No sliding around, that's what the analog sticks are for.WalterPeck

hmm move with right analog stick, aim with left analog stick, fire with R1.  Seems to be how most games do it now.  I'd say that allows you to do all three.

I'm curious as to how it recognizes the "jump" command in rub-a-dub.  Seems to be able to recognize the upward jerk of the controller which would not be tilt.

So I guess Air Hockey wouldn't really work then.  Something like that would be a real cool game in Home.

I wonder at some responses here on this thread. Do some of the people that answered even own a PS3?

Anyways: The Sixaxis registers more than just tilting, it also recognizes movements, as in lifting the controller up or giving it a shove to the side. That's also how the 'jump' command in rub-a-duck is recognized.

Like someone before me stated: in Lair you'll be able to ram into enemies, accallerate or do 180s by flinging the controller the according way. It's no tilt, but it's a motion.
