VGChartz writes: "Move Party! is where the Move's camera/controller tech really got to shine. The screen shows you a live video feed of yourself holding the Move as it turns into several different objects, similar to the live demonstration at last year's E3 where it turned into a baseball bat and a stop sign. To make sure they contrast with the background enough, they are all very colorful and animated. This combination of real video of yourself using cartoon items made it feel like I was in ToonTown from Who Framed Roger Rabbit."
This can't possibly be the box art for upcoming PlayStation Move party game Move de Party!
From the review:
"When Sony’s boffins first came up with the idea for Move, the company’s marketing department most probably already had the campaign for Start The Party! planned, printed, and stored safely in a drawer somewhere, way before the developers had so much as thought about writing a line of code. Yes, this is the collection of mini-games that everyone who’s ever seen a PlayStation logo knew that Sony would put together in time for their new peripheral’s launch. But if we can put the horrors of approximately fourteen thousand slightly-different-but-not-rea lly EyeToy mini-game collections out of our minds for a minute, with a genuinely responsive and workable control system, they may just be on to something."
With all of the so called 'casual' games that will be appearing on MOVE and Kinect, I wonder if the reviewers will judge them from the perspective of the 'casual gamers' point of view rather than us 'core gamers'?
These titles, whilst they might be fun to play are not targeted at the people who visit gaming websites like us.
What is with the score? 4/10? Sorry but I played this with friends couple of times and it's nowhere near that, 4/10 means rather that it would be broken, or a boring and unplayable game... While this is sure just some mini-games, they are fun, polished, and this argumented reality Move thing is hardly just better eye toy. The same for kinect, it's not just eye toy with depth... Such thinking is ridiculous.
Sony invites the Japanese press out to a demo event and shares screens of all its motion games.
I know this game was like, super-simple, but to me it was among the better Move things I played.
WarioWare much?
I personally think Microsoft will do something similar and to be honest good for them, I won't buy it and nor will I buy the move one. I am a core gamer, I play Bad Company 2... not party games. It's still interesting the tech I mean.
