Back in June 2009 when the PlayStation Move was unveiled it was greeted with varying degrees of trepidation from gamers across the globe. Despite Sony stating Move would offer true 1:1 motion control, one of the major concerns was that it would be just like Nintendo’s Wii remote and not offer anything new or different at all, whereas others just thought it looked silly. After all, it basically looked like a remote with a glowing rubber sphere attached to it. It’s fair to say, it was a bold move by Sony (no pun intended), especially with Microsoft offering motion control without the need for a controller at all in the form of Kinect.
A group of surgeons made headlines after they managed to perform an endoscopic procedure on a pig located in Hong Kong by using PlayStation controllers. It involved the use of a PS5 DualSense controller as well as a PlayStation Move controller.
That's really cool. It's crazy something like that is possible with gaming controllers 1000's of miles away.
Air Conflicts: Secret Wars debuted in 2011, and later updated for modern consoles. However, it's the PlayStation 3 edition that stands out.
Sony's PlayStation Move may not have been able to contend with Nintendo's Wii, but it paved the way for PlayStation VR's success story.
Lack of games that proved the concept that 3rd parties could then copy en masse?
Because it was a uninspired ripoff of the Wii controller without the Nintendo library to back it and didn't try to put any real effort into development such as getting their top developers to make games for it and instead gave tech demos disguised as games to their least talented developers so the best can focus on single player only games.
Socom, killzone, resistance and tiger wood 14 were great with the move but agree lacked more games.
Yet another great score for the Move. Sony struck gold with this one. I am loving RE5 with the move and can't wait for the Mag 2.0 patch!
