Three of the Vehicles will be motorcycles, which can race against the seven cars.	Accessories- The SIXAXIS- Named for its ability to detect motion in six degrees, this is the standard controller for the PS3. It also looks cosmetically similar to its predecessors, the Dual Shock 1 and 2. This one though, is lacking in the vibration ability, due to interference with the wireless capabilities and Blue tooth technology. The blue tooth technology will support up to 7 wireless controllers. Picture courtesy of Wikipedia Boomerang- The original, Banana-shaped controller is no longer going to be soled on the market. We believe Playstation removed it and returned to the Dual Shock design due to constant ridicule and criticism of this controller. Picture courtesy of Wikipedia Memory Card adapter - This adapter makes it possible to transfer files and data from old memory cards from the PS1/2 to the hard drive of the PS3. This could be useful when it comes to the backwards compatibility feature. BD Remote - Through the blue tooth feature, this remote promotes easy control for Blue-ray DVD’s although the PS3 will not accept standard rays. This means it cannot be intertwined with the family home theater system’s universal remote and can only use the BD Remote.
