The live demo of Sony's motion technology at this year's E3, had the demonstrator use two controllers for part of the demo. Sony has just announced that you will not need to purchase a second controller, as all games can be played with just one. Shuhei Yoshida, Senior VP of Product Development for SCEA had this to say about the controllers:

“…because of cost-of-goods and, you know, people have to have the PlayStation Eye camera as well, we are approaching the launch by making sure that all games that we create can be played with one controller and the camera. We will also introduce options for if you happen to have more than one controller available. Experiences will be enhanced if you purchase a second.”

    I'll buy two. It's the way I first saw it so I'll play it that way.

      But why? If you know you don't need two controllers why waste like £30?

        "Experiences will be enhanced if you purchase a second."

        Not to mention I know I can afford two. Hell four if split screen multiplayer is to be done. I know some games may only need one, but some games are going to be complex and having two just makes sense. I mean these controllers can be used for games as complex as God of War 3 so to me one just won't be good enough. Why play games essentially gimped when this system seems obviously suited for two controllers as they showed it off at E3.
