Who is Move for? How will it impact PS3? Christopher Dring investigates.
Move is a major new member of the PlayStation 3 family, but it isn’t designed to reinvent the format.
Whereas Microsoft views Kinect as a rebirth for its Xbox 360, Sony sees Move more as an add-on – another reason to buy a PS3 alongside 3D, Blu-ray and PSN.
Sony’s answer to wireless motion control offers three advantages over Nintendo’s technology: the movements are a lot more precise; because it’s a camera-based system, many games can put you in the game (such as seeing yourself on the screen in “Start the Party” and “EyePet”); and the PS3 offers high-definition graphics for a more photorealistic experience over the Wii’s standard-definition visuals.
This clever puzzle game has plenty of variety and makes great use of the PlayStation Move.
Wow this game looks interesting, I cant see it working co-op style as a friend helping would probably lead to an argument lol. Its only $10 so i will give it a try.
Well worth the price of admission. There is a demo in the PS Store if you'd like to try before you buy.
This game is the reason to buy a Move. It's absolutely addicting. Like I said before, it's simple, yet so good.
Tried the demo, while I doubt I'd buy the game, this may be the best "demo" for Move, accuracy, depth... just insane.
Quoting Movemodo's James Newton:
"With other Move titles making strides in gaming control, Racket Sports feels like a dinosaur; the motion-sensing is unreliable and could have been more accurately and enjoyably served by a button press, a disaster for any new motion control title. Racket Sports is precisely the kind of title we don’t want to see on Move. Save your money for the promising-looking Virtua Tennis 4."
Move came out now for the hardcore, the real Move debut is this november
