According to

, Sony's motion-sensing controller has won an award most of us probably didn't even know existed. The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences bestowed the SixAxis with an Emmy for excellence in Technology and Engineering.

SCEA CEO Jack Tretton had this to say: ""The overwhelming consumer demand and critical acclaim for PS3 is testament of the platform's strength and the industry's desire for a true next-generation entertainment system."

What exactly that has to do with the award we unfortunately don't know, but Sony didn't win just an Emmy this year at CES. They're walking away with a CES Best of Innovations Award, one of PC World's 20 Most Innovative Product Awards, Sound and Vision's Editor's Choice honor, and a Digital Innovation Award from the Digital Entertainment Group.

The Electronic Entertainment Expo has had travel a troubled road this past year after its collapse in the Summer – dissolved, reborn, shifted back and forth across the calendar, renamed more than once. As

, it seems that IDG is ready to nail down the final details on its new exposition. Now called "E For All," the show will take place over the weekend of October 18th with a focus more on entertainment and consumer relations than business and industry talk.

Poised just before the holiday season, it gives attendees the ability to interact with the season's hot games in a friendly atmosphere, even allowing them to purchase some of what they see on the show floor. Other events IDG plans to include are gaming tournaments, a job fair, family-oriented content, and a musical performance called Video Games Live.

Open to the general public, E for All will still take place in the LA Convention Center with tickets for the three day full access going for about $100.

Sony's still weak on getting out specific dates for their PSN releases, but that doesn't make today's output any less sweet. Both the PS3 version of Gripshift and the PSOne Classic Jumping Flash arrived on the network today.

Gripshift is an upgraded port of the underappreciated PSP title of the same name. Featuring an eccentric combination of racing and platforming action, the new version has been given a glorious HD makeover.

Jumping Flash was one of the earliest games for the original Playstation. Though it looks dated, the gameplay remains classic and you'd do yourself a favor to play through it at least once to experience a piece of gaming history.

Now Sony, where's fl0w?
