    Playstation Move

    http://kotaku.com/5490632/playstatio...u-need-to-know

    Yesterday, Sony took the wraps off the PlayStation Move, which some people will call Sony's next big thing in video gaming, and others will call a shameless Wii Remote rip-off. Here's everything you need to know about it.

    WHAT IS IT?

    The Move is a motion-sensing peripheral, which in conjunction with the PlayStation Eye Camera (which is already on the market) allows precise motion-controlled video gaming on the PlayStation 3.

    The Move can, in some cases, be paired with the "Subcontroller", a nunchuk-like device that sports an analog stick and d-pad, which allows the Move to be used with more "traditional" titles like first-person shooters or role-playing games.

    Unlike the Wii Remote, which is powered by regular batteries (or in cases of third-party solutions a rechargeable battery pack), the Move is fuelled by the same lithium ion battery that runs your PlayStation 3's DualShock 3 controller, meaning it'll have plenty of shelf life between recharges. As a bonus, the Subcontroller also has a lithium ion battery.

    Both the Move and Subcontroller are wireless, feature rumble and will sync with your PlayStation 3 via Bluetooth. At launch, they will be available in black, and black only.

    HOW DOES IT WORK?

    It uses a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, coloured sphere and a terrestrial magnetic field sensor to pin-point the location of the Move, which allows it to easily track any kind of movement the player makes, whether it be slow or fast, small or sweeping.

    The Subcontroller also features a full-fledged motion sensor, just like the Move wand itself, unlike the Wii Remote Nunchuk's gyroscope which is fairly primitive in comparison.

    Interestingly, every game we played at GDC required the user to calibrate the Move before playing. It wasn't a big deal, but switching between games quickly it was a bit of a pain.


    WHAT GAMES ARE THERE?

    Along with an announcement that some "regular" PlayStation 3 titles will support the Move (such as SOCOM 4, EyePet and LittleBigPlanet), Sony unveiled a range of games built specifically for the new controller's motion-sensing capabilities.

    These are:

    - Motion Fighter
    - Move Party
    - Sports Champions
    - TV Superstars
    - The Shoot
    - Slider

    In total, Sony says that "more than 20" titles will be released featuring PlayStation Move support by the end of fiscal year 2010.


    WHO IS SUPPORTING THE MOVE?

    Aside from Sony's own internal studios, a total of 36 companies have signed up to develop and publish games for the PlayStation Move. These companies are:

    * 505 Games U.S.
    * Activision Publishing, Inc.
    * AQ INTERACTIVE Inc.
    * ARC SYSTEMS WORK CO.,LTD
    * ATLUS Co., LTD.
    * Bigben Interactive
    * CAPCOM CO., LTD.
    * CCP
    * Crave Entertainment
    * CYBERFRONT Corporation
    * Disney Interactive Studios
    * Electronic Arts Inc.
    * FromSoftware, Inc.
    * Game Republic, Inc.
    * GUST CO., LTD.
    * HUDSON SOFT CO., LTD.
    * IREM SOFTWARE ENGINEERING INC.
    * Koei Co., Ltd.
    * Konami Digital Entertainment Co., Ltd.
    * Majesco Entertainment
    * Marvelous Entertainment Inc.
    * NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc.
    * ONGAKUKAN Co., Ltd.
    * Oxygen Games
    * PAON CORPORATION
    * Q Entertainment Inc.
    * Q-GAMES, LTD.
    * SEGA CORPORATION
    * Sony Online Entertainment
    * Spike Co., Ltd.
    * SQUARE ENIX GROUP
    * TECMO, LTD.
    * THQ Inc.
    * UBISOFT
    * Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment
    * Zoo Entertainment, Inc.


    HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM THE WII REMOTE?

    While the Move looks similar to Nintendo's pioneering 2006 motion controller, there are key differences, like a reduced button count and better motion-sensing. For more on this, read up on Stephen's early impressions of the Move.


    HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

    The Move will be available in three packages: a standalone Move (for consumers that already own a PlayStation Eye camera), a bundle that includes the Move and PlayStation Eye, and a hardware pack that includes the Move, PlayStation Eye and PlayStation 3 console.

    While pricing details for the standalone pack and PS3 bundle are unavailable at this time, the Move + PlayStation Eye option will cost $99.


    WHEN IS IT OUT

    The PlayStation Move will be released sometime this Fall.

    Re: Sony Move 101

    Cool I am really excited about this and hope they make a bunch of shooters for it. I personally liked playing COD WAW on the Wii. Granted it wasn't the best accuracy with the wii mote so hopefully sonys is super accurate. I wonder if the games that come out for this will let you choose which controller you want to use, the new one or the original PS3 controller, or is it going to be just for the new motion controller only?

    Re: Sony Move 101

    lol overkill much? best buy overload. at least you never have to worry about something being out of stock because most likely you can just go around the corner to the next one and get it there

    i wouldn't mind a best buy or two nearby though, the nearest one to me is 40 miles away, the second closest being 40 miles in the other direction, so an hour drive no matter which way you go lol

    Re: Sony Move 101

    ok here's the latest on Playstation Move:

    releases September 19th 2010

    single controller costs $49.99 and the Navigation Controller (like a wii nunchuck if you will) costs $29.99

    there will be two bundle packs

    1 PSeye camera, 1 PS Move controller, and the move sports game costs $99.99


    above bundle + PS3 system costs $399.99


    they didn't show the nav controller in the bundles so you'll probably have to buy separately

    I just don't see how you would play shooter games without two dildos?

    Re: Sony Move 101

    If there's some way the could adapt a cigarette holder on those controllers, I might go for it. Ah, who am I kidding, I'll be getting it anyway.

    After watching the Sports Champions clip, I think a good adaptation for Move controller would be Assassin's Creed. Being able to employ all of those weapons using those controllers might make the game a bit more appealing.

    Indecision may or may not be my problem.

    PLAYSTATION MOVE

    Soooooo what's the word? I hear PS3 is gonna rival the Wii, and the Wii is gonna take a huge dump... If you got stock in Nintendo I'd say sell before the PS Move comes onto the market... not to mention the 360 Kinect! I already sold my Wii and all it's games for the sole purpose of getting the move in the near future. someone post some cool vid of this ting. I'm really looking forward to that gladiator game.

    Re: Playstation Move

    Wii is more kid oriented it seems. When I had one there were hardly any games that I could find for it that I actually wanted to play.

    Re: Playstation Move

    Do you think you will have a advantage using the Move over a normal controller in a FPS? I heard them talking about having different rooms on Killzone 3 for Move users.

    Re: Playstation Move

    What about position of the camera? The camera I have doesn't have a long enough lead to sit below the tv? My tv is on the wall and the PS3 is in the corner of the room. :?

    My Daughter has that stupid Eye Pet game and it's pretty useless when you have to wave the card around in front of the eye to operate the game.
