Playstation Move

So with Move getting released today, has anyone purchased Move?

I have just ordered a couple of Move controllers due to owning the Eyetoy camera already.

If you have tried it out what do you think? Am looking forward to trying Tiger Woods out with it and looking forward to the new Socom game.

Re: Playstation Move

Mine was delivered about an hour ago, i have to say even with the demo's I've tried so far I'm really impressed with it's accuracy. I did enjoy the Wii when I had one, tried the demo of Sports Champions Table Tennis, as I was a demon on the Wii version. Got thrashed by the cpu on this one!

Try as I might I couldn't get it to lose tracking on the controller either.

The shape of the Move controller is good in the hand and with all the usual buttons and the new T and Move buttons there's plenty of scope for quite in depth games.

So after about an hour. I'm really pleased, it exceeds my expectations so far

Now off to try the Tiger Woods Demo

Re: Playstation Move

This & Kinect both look interesting, but I'm gonna wait for more games before I decide on whether to bother with either.

Re: Playstation Move

I don't do moving.... I play the odd game to relax and chill out, not to knacker myself out.

Saying that, are wii's still going? It's all gone really quiet, I know 5/6 mates who's had one has sold them on as they've got bored with them after the novelty wore off (quite quickly I must add). Just wondering if the move/kinetic has missed the boat and it'll be just another fad and a waste of money. As you say we'll have to see what games come out for them but I'm not holding my breath.

I think people got bored of the Wii's due to the lack of really good games, I did enjoy some of the stuff on the Wii, but it was infested with shovelware. The great games were few and far between and often found no shelf space compared to the latest dance/party/firness title. I traded my Wii in for the PS3, and it's been great so glad I did.

I do think there is a place for both the PS3 and 360 to get in on the motion controlled games market, especially as the tech has moved on since the Wiimote and motion plus. Even hardcore gamers who bought the 360 or PS3 like a bit of casual gaming now and then so I think people will find a new love for these type of games.

Re: Playstation Move

I'm sorry but the Move controller looks like the thing that cops use to direct traffic, or they use at airports to help planes move near the ramp.

I thought exactly that till I read some technical info on Friday.

The wee glowing ball is what makes the Move work. The Eyetoy camera detects the ball and can work out where it is and even how far away you are standing by it working out how big the ball is. The colour change is down to the camera looking at the colours of your room and choosing a colour that will stand out easily so the camera can see it. Its actually pretty damn clever tbh.

Its that ball that gives Move the 1:1 movement.
