Darn, makes the demo disc in PSMove bundle seem redundant then, they shouldve bundled wand and eye toy with a game instead like The Fight, or the Big Gun 3 shooting game, or Sorcery.

.
The demo disc still could be used to those who didn't have an Internet connection yet.

stevenhiggster5430d ago

I do agree with you Cloud, but seriously, who hasn't got the internet these days except the Amish and some 3rd world places?

iamnsuperman5430d ago

@ stevenhiddster people may have the internet but not nessearly fast internet.10% of the UK still use dial up (2009 figure)and most people have around 10mb in the UK. Only major cities can get 50mb....so the disc is very useful and I have the internet and I would rather pop in a disc that wait for the demo for ages to download

stevenhiggster5428d ago

I'm one of those people you speak of, I'm in the UK and I currently only get 5mb, and thats through LLU ADSL2+! The internet in the UK is total crap unless you live in one of the major cities.
But it still doesn't take me that long to download a 1-2gb demo.

NothingToGainButLove5430d ago

I guess it does promote newer Move-enabled games to Move owners...
I support.

N2G5430d ago

that is awesome i was worried about MOVE demo's because i'm only buying the MOVE controller as i already have the eye camera.

DA_SHREDDER5430d ago

well duh, there are already 3-D ones. Everyone always acts like they forget whats up.

Sony makes its ‘Move’ into PS3 motion control

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.

Rip-Ridah5395d ago

Well worth the price of admission. There is a demo in the PS Store if you'd like to try before you buy.

Lovable5395d ago

This game is the reason to buy a Move. It's absolutely addicting. Like I said before, it's simple, yet so good.

PirateThom5395d ago

Tried the demo, while I doubt I'd buy the game, this may be the best "demo" for Move, accuracy, depth... just insane.

despair5395d ago

yea the guy who reviewed it is an idiot.

Cant spell Ignorance without IGN.

kaveti66165395d ago

I don't follow. If everyone else likes something and IGN doesn't, that makes IGN ignorant?

Do you guys think before you post over-used slogans and mantras like sheep?

coolbeans5395d ago

That's one of the biggest problems with the internet as a whole. Your reasoning is sound, and hopefully others will at least contemplate what you've said. (bubbles :D)

callahan095395d ago (Edited 5395d ago )

Yes, Kaveti, it does. This game is excellent. IGN giving it a 3.5 is disingenuous to their readers and unfair to the developers who poured their lives into making this game for however long. It has an impeccable presentation with crisp, pretty graphics, good music, a very soothing voice to the actress narrating everything, lots of variety in the missions, fun multiplayer, and incredibly accurate and impressive controls that do an excellent job of showing how the Move is a unique control scheme: this game couldn't be done on the Wii or Kinect, it requires the precision of the pointing device, which Kinect lacks, and the 3D depth tracking that the Wii lacks. It's a brilliant and inexpensive showcase for Move offering compelling puzzle experiences.

A 3.5 out of 10 is just simply the WRONG score. No opinion about it. It completely fails to acknowledge the factual features present in the game, from design to presentation to control and implementation of those schemes. It IS a good game. And the fact that IGN is the only reviewer that didn't like it is more evidence to the fact that the game itself is good, well-made, deserving of praise, and that IGN failed to see the title for what it is and tore it down for lack of that understanding.

foss35394d ago

IGN used to be good... until years ago when they started putting ads everywhere they went to the shitter.

They were one of the first sites that redirected you to a full page ad before sending you to your link. I remember seeing those and writing an email to IGN telling them I would no longer use their site because of all the spam.

Probably because they didn't get the exclusive first review.

IGN isn't relevant anymore.

Movemodo review: Racket Sports / Racquet Sports (PS3 / Move)

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."
