We all know that Microsoft has motion control games, Mii-like avatars and Wii-mote-like controllers up their sleeves. A new rumor has surfaced that the new Arcade bundle headed to shelves this fall will probably include motion controlers and mini-games that use the technology. For now, I’d set this rumor as questionable. Various game blogs have been throwing up motion control rumors for months and they usually turn out to be false. This time, the rumor came from Xbox 360 Fanboy.  They have been credible in the past with rumors, but this one is just worded a little funny.  According to the site, they got this rumor from ”a tip from a source close to Microsoft’s marketing department,”.  Believe it if you want, but there’s really not much behind this one.

For those of you wishing you had a bigger hard drive, Sony is looking to comply with your wishes. The company will be releasing a new PS3 bundle in November — inside: 160GB PS3 (sans PS2 backwards compatibility), Uncharted, voucher for downloadable game, PAIN, and the rumble-rific DualShock 3 for $499.99.

Does the added hard drive space and packed-in games sell it for those of you looking to purchase a PS3?
