wow he plays extremely good with MOVE

dc14953d ago

Even better with the precision shoot gun.

HolyOrangeCows4953d ago

No recoil with the move. Seems a bit unfair, even if it has to be that way when you consider the physics of it.

ALFAxD_CENTAURO4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

I have a orange light with SVER.

I assume the Color turns Green with Valor team.

And the video shows Blue with Raven.

Nitrowolf24953d ago

i have green and i am valor

Rumbanana4953d ago

I have a blue light for Raven...

Max Power4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

At the end of the video he says that the light on the move changes depending on your factions, which is pretty sweet.

garos824953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

im so picking mag up soon

@raz. ive only played the beta of mag so far and was getting owned hard. it took me a while with the ds3 to get better and contribute better to the battle. im expecting to get challenged with the move controls. the reason i will bear through the "hardship" is cause it does seem rewarding,accurate and legitimate enough for me to be satisfied. it will require skill which is what gaming is all about to me!

hence why i think street fighter 4 is my favorite game this gen

raztad4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

But bro dont forget you will sweat blood and tears being owned left and right. Patience. Getting owned in mag is the common rule when yo are new but with move (as the video cleartly shows) things are even worse.

I'm in already climbing the step and getting better.

gamingisnotacrime4953d ago

it takes around 3-5 hours then is good to go. the knifing is what is giving me trouble, but the rest is great. im killing on close encounters and far away as i was with the DS3.

MsmackyM4953d ago

Been playing again since the 2.0 beta with the Move, and without a doubt, the actual 2.0 patch is hands down better. And I feel sorry to announce this, but a good Move player will trump a good DS3 player.
And Move victories aren't cheap, as it requires a lot of practice to get good with it. That being said, the Move has added an whole new dimension of fun to gaming.

Weed4953d ago

Idk I can't imagine move being able to pull stuff like this

badz1494953d ago

it's a shame that I don't have enough time for gaming especially online thus I didn't buy MAG and I'm still feeling guilty to myself for buying Warhawk and SOCOM:C but didn't spent time enough in each of them due to not having time for it! I love both games and MAG looks better and better by the days and I know I'm missing out. but good to see MAG is getting the supports it needed and MOVE is getting games it needed! who ever still wanna bash MOVE after this especially saying it as on-rail, come here, let me slap you in the FACE!

oh btw, I just beat Table Tennis on champions cup last night and it feels so satisfying! Kenji you bastard :P

ThanatosDMC4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

I'm currently on Raven. I play MAG almost everyday. Currently in AIR clan though ~SK clan wants me on their clan.

Anyway, for those who wanna group up and play. Add me. Dont worry, im nice to my teammates.

PSN: ThanatosDMC

I dont care if you're a noob. I'll teach you how to kill, if you ask.

@6:59

[AMF]Tweekz129 is my clanmate... HAHAHAH!

FragGen4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

Long time player, I just tried move w/ Mag2 yesterday. I like the move a lot, but, man, for MAG it's absolutely terrible. I really can't imagine this being better than a standard controller for the majority of players. You guys who are claiming this is awesome must have a much different setup or are just wowed by the newness of it all... I can't see EVER being better with the Move than a DS3 for me, personally.

Mouse/KB remains the optimal control for FPS, IMHO.

Super-Brad4953d ago

He does make it look easy, lol.
And I don't know if this is intentional to give Move users 1+ against DS3 users but their is no recoil when using Move.

Nitrowolf24953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

he gave awesome tips i just went 10-5 after doing some tweaking, it is amazing with this game

sickbird4953d ago

isnt the beta over? how r u using move?

blusoops4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

the beta is over because the actual update they were testing with the beta (MAG 2.0) is out for everyone to download now. You just have to own MAG.

I love MAG w/move btw, and this video is one of the most informative i've ever seen on the subject.

He says in the video: "after playing for a day straight, going back to the dualshock is just wrong"

my sentiments exactly, practice makes perfect

beardpapa4953d ago

the next thing you know, they'll implement "recoil" by adjusting the strength of the vibration feedback.

Nitrowolf24953d ago

Would that even be possible?
i mean all the games i have played the rumble feels the same, it would be sweet if they could

ThanatosDMC4953d ago

I use move. I'm usually the top killer.

hesido4953d ago

Superbly produced video, I commend the author.. He even managed to cover points I'd not be aware of, but still is very good info..

Looks great! Go buy MAG, please!

Blinding_Solo4953d ago

This video was F****** awesome. I want MAG even more now and the move but I'm broke. I'm also waiting for November 2, 2010

mrmcygan4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

Thumbs up to Zipper, this is 100 times better then the move controls in the MAG Beta.

saint_john_paul_ii4953d ago

yup. this is much better. they took feedback from the beta.

Great Job iWaggle3D, shutting the haters up with evidence.

Air Conflicts: Secret Wars - PlayStation Move's Best Kept Secret

Air Conflicts: Secret Wars debuted in 2011, and later updated for modern consoles. However, it's the PlayStation 3 edition that stands out.

Why the PlayStation Move Failed

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.

SullysCigar959d ago

I use them most days and have for years 🤷🏻‍♂️

They're definitely way past a needed update, but I've got a tonne of fun out of them, so they haven't failed me.

bouzebbal958d ago

The best motion control platform it's so intuitive.. Died due to lack of support from Sony.. It had some amazing games

thorstein959d ago

They are used constantly for PSVR games. So, no they haven't failed. Neither has PSVR (or VR in general.)

Bigman4k959d ago (Edited 958d ago )

The article was talking about why it ps move failed before psvr came along

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH959d ago

It failed because it sucked plain and simple.

LOGICWINS959d ago

I feel that's a bit harsh. To this day, playing Killzone 3's campaign with PS Move/Sharpshooter gun combo is the most fun/immersive experience I've ever had with an FPS.

I think Move was simply not as profitable as Sony wanted it to be, but it didn't "suck".

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH959d ago

It most definitely sucked. You people can act like it was something special all you want but it was horrible. The entire motion control fad was a waste of resources and time. Ever single motion controller besides the Wii failed and is no longer being used today in gaming. It's ok to admit it...

Minute Man 721959d ago

@SPEAK

The Move was better that the Wii mote. If the Wii was anywhere accurate as the Move was you could say the Wii was better. Sure it sold boatloads but was it really played consistently??

yeahokwhatever959d ago

I played it in 3D with the move gun on a 100 inch projector and it BLEW MY MIND. I was exhausted, but i finished the campaign standing there.

SullysCigar959d ago

"Ever single motion controller besides the Wii failed and is no longer being used today in gaming"

Just no. Games release most weeks (for years now) that support Move controllers. Some ONLY use Move controllers.

Look, I get you're not a fan, but if you're going to rant, at least inform yourself in advance.

LordoftheCritics959d ago

I would say both Move and Kinect weren't supported properly.

Sony and MS abandoned what could have been amazing.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH959d ago

Kinect sucked too. I would say Kinect may have been cool had it worked as intended but it was ahead of it's time. Both Kinect and Move are gimmicks nothing more. I honestly don't see why Sony still implements "motion controls" recent controllers. Who really uses that crap? And to play what?

Profchaos959d ago

I so t think Sony abandoned the move it's technically repurposed and still supported on the ps5 just for VR

RedDevils959d ago

Kinect should be kept as media interactive features.

LordoftheCritics959d ago (Edited 959d ago )

@SPEAKxTHExTRUTH
Again if it was supported right.

Where even a fast click of my fingers could get an immediate in game response.

It feels trash because we have been shown or lived with bad versions of gesture based tech. Think Minority Report fast. That could be something.

''You people can act like it was something special all you want but it was horrible.''

No one is acting like it was special, I said it could be amazing.

''I think Move was simply not as profitable as Sony wanted it to be''

Like I said, it wasnt supported. Give us a AAA game with precision gestures well implemented into the game and then we can discuss profits.

959d ago
SPEAKxTHExTRUTH959d ago

I don't deal in "what if". It wasn't supported right and even if it was it was still a gimmick.

thorstein959d ago

"Like I said, it wasnt supported. Give us a AAA game with precision gestures well implemented into the game"

You just described every AAA PSVR game. And even the indies have incredible integration. No Man's Sky VR is insanely good.

Silly gameAr959d ago

And, you can act like it was horrible, but I had a blast with my Move. I had the whole collection of House of the Dead, Dead Space Extraction, and RE Darkside Cronicles, The Fight, and Socom 4, and I would play the hell out of those games I even beat a playthrough of the Resistance 3 campaign with the Move. Getting drunk and playing with friends was a freaking blast.

You can pretend that you had a move and played it all you want SPeak the Truth, but it was accurate, and usually on point. I hate when people act like they've played something just to trash it, when they really just have a vendetta, and think the Move is easy prey for your hate.

Minute Man 721959d ago

Wait you can play Dead Space with the Move?? I need it

Orchard959d ago

“You can pretend that you had a move”

I love this crazy idea that if someone has something bad to say about hardware/software - they must be lying about owning it and clearly do not own it!

Because all hardware and software has a 100% approval rating from all purchasers…

P_Bomb959d ago (Edited 959d ago )

Shoot I forgot about Dead Space Extraction and Umbrella Chronicles. Had those too. Still do (digital).

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH959d ago

I have a vendetta against Move? Lmao that's the most ridiculous comment I've read today. I didn't buy it because like I said motion controls are gimmicks. I had a Wii and it was decent enough but a gimmick although successful. I had a Kinect and it too was trash. Don't act as if you know what I have and haven't owned. Move was nothing more than a Wiimote ripoff

yeahokwhatever959d ago

SO MANY really great experiences for the Move. The Fight was excellent!

Silly gameAr959d ago (Edited 959d ago )

@Minute Man

There was a game called Dead Space Extraction that you could play the Move with.

@Orchard. Please don't reply to me, because every time I say something to you, I magically end up restricted. So, just ignore me like I ignore you, so there will be no hurt feelings, please.

"Ever single motion controller besides the Wii failed and is no longer being used today in gaming. It's ok to admit it..."

That is demostrably false.... Most VR games have motion controls and the PSVR uses the Move controllers.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH959d ago (Edited 959d ago )

VR games have a controller most of the time not some magic wand. And VR is not the same as PS move or Kinect. I'm not a fan of VR either. A controller and a couch is all I need for my gaming needs.

Vanfernal959d ago

@SPEAKxTHExTRUTH

"And VR is not the same as PS move or Kinect."

PSVR LITERALLY uses the Move controllers. Now it's just obvious you have no idea what you're talking about. You're saying Move failed and nobody uses it anymore when it's an integral part of PSVR and is still being used in 2021.

ScootaKuH959d ago

It didn't suck. It worked but the games just weren't there, that's why it failed.

Father__Merrin959d ago

The move was excellent it was 1 to 1 precise time crisis was a joy to play aswell as sports champions it didn't hit mainstream as it was an addon unlike Nintendo wiimote

Lack of games that proved the concept that 3rd parties could then copy en masse?

Silly Mammo958d ago

I wish that someone would have made a proper boxing game. I still have a blast with the Sports Champions boxing, but to have a boxing game that was more in-depth would have been awesome.

Dario_DC958d ago

Try Creed for PSVR, it's brilliant

OMGitzThatGuy959d ago

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.

Ryushaa959d ago

Except the Move was an idea roughly implemented in the PS2. Yes, I'm serious.
Just search on youtube: PlayStation 2 - Motion Controller (2004)

Nonetheless, just like the whole Wii, it was more of a gimmick than a proper input evolution in games.

jukins959d ago

Exactly. Its funny time and time again sony is the first innovate. Often at its own peril. Like your example the move started on ps2 taken advantage of by nintendo. Sony buys gakai for game streaming only for other companies to overtake them.

Profchaos959d ago

Are you talking about the gametrak on os2 which used strings to track your hand position I used to have this and a gold game it was awesome but the game itself sucked if it had integration with tiger woods or something it would be way better the tracking was excellent even back then as it wasn't using guesswork.
However the game was very forgiving and no way to turn it harder and no licensed players or courses hurt it.

yeahokwhatever959d ago

99% of the Wii's games were "shovelware", in fact, I think thats what started that phrase..

EvertonFC959d ago

Socom, killzone, resistance and tiger wood 14 were great with the move but agree lacked more games.

yeahokwhatever959d ago

There were plenty of games and I'm glad that not every game became a Move game.

These PS3 Games are Going to get Really Expensive

Could you get rich by investing in PS3 games? Almost definitely not. Can you make a few bucks by flipping PS3 games over the years? Yeah, sure! It wouldn’t even be that difficult. But let’s face it: Once these games are in your collection, you’re probably keeping them forever.

CDbiggen961d ago

There's a reason I didn't buy most of these when they came out.

MadLad961d ago

After a game's multiple generations old, and can't be had new at a reasonable price, that's when I see nothing wrong with emulation.

What's the point of paying someone scalper prices when the dev/publisher isn't even benefiting from it?

mkis007961d ago

Emulation doesn't stop a games physical box from becoming collectible.

Knightofelemia961d ago

I paid $30 for SH Downpour on PS3 now it's around $70-$85 Canadian Lolipop Chainsaw I paid $15 and it has really gone up in price. I wonder if Transformers War and Fall of Cybertron will go up in price two of the best Transformers games every made.

neutralgamer1992961d ago

In 5 years time all those games will be worth at least $150 to $200 that you listed

961d ago
neutralgamer1992961d ago

Ever since Sony announced that they would shut down PS3 store these prices have skyrocketed and even though Sony backtracked now most gamers realize that it's a matter of time before the PlayStation 3 store is shut down. If you want these games get them while you can even if digital because once that story shut down the physical prices will just go crazy high we saw that already

And many of these games did not sell like crazy amounts so they are limited number of copies available for sale at any given time

MadLad961d ago

Folklore is a game I've always really wanted to play, but I got a PS3 late in the generation, and it was already really expensive to find, being it didn't exactly sell well, therefore was already kind of a collector's item.

Kept hoping I'd find a cheap copy randomly at stores and flea markets, but never happened.

franwex961d ago

I got mine for $5 at Walmart like 10 years ago. I have yet to play it.

neutralgamer1992961d ago

It was available at GameStop for a while for under $20. Don't know har happened but GameStop started to sell their used games based on ebay prices it seems

You can still find it for around $60-70 and which in my opinion is a good price for a game that will be worth double if not triple that in next 5 years

Mr Logic961d ago

Have you considered modding your PS3? Neither Sony or the dev would be getting money from that Folklore purchase. Kind of a victimless crime at that point.

MadLad961d ago (Edited 961d ago )

@neutral

Honestly, I just want to actually give the experience a try. I'm not someone who would buy it at a premium just to potentially rip someone off down the road.
I mean, there are collectors out there and if paying a couple hundred dollars is worth it to them then more power to them, but I'm not one to be on either end of that exchange.

I know it's taboo, but I might dig in and see the state of PS3 emulation on PC. I have a good PC, so it might be able to power through the often times poor performance, being PS3 is known to be hard to emulate.

I've never emulated anything past the PS2/Dreamcast but, as I said in my first post, I don't see anything wrong with emulation if the game you want to play can only be had used, with no money going to the creators.
