Engadget: Gametrak Freedom Xbox 360 motion controller up for pre-order with Squeeballs

Engadget writes:

We get the feeling this isn't the motion sensing surprise that's likely in store for Xbox 360 fans at E3, but it's still great to see this controller moving beyond the hype stage. After being spied late last year and detailed around two months ago, the Gametrak Freedom motion controller is now listed at GameStop with an October 15th ship date. The controller, which will come bundled with Squeeballs: Island Party for the Xbox 360, is already up for pre-order, promising gamers who shell out $69.99 a grand total of 11 motion sensing party games. Unfortunately, there's no word on how much extra Freedom sticks will run, but based on the price of this kit, we'd wager not much.

Yeah that's what I was thinking.

Read: "Designed by third party maker Performance Designed Products (PDP), the Gametrak Freedom comes bundled with mini-game title Squeeballs: Island Party. Yours for US$69.99."

Whoever disagreed is obviously an idiot.

Just because this is third party doesn't mean that MS wont announce their own motion controller.

I really don't get this whole motion controller fad that's been going on.
So far it's just been a big gimmick and I doubt that changes anytime soon.

Really? What does the WII use? The same thing right? Plus they sold how many? The controller is good for certain games and I bet it won't be long before it catches on for the 360

I liked the Dark Brotherhood from Oblivion and Skyrim but disliked how there is nothing left afterward.
