Sony Unveals PlayStation Move Technology Reel - 3D Modeling, Interactive Menus, More

With the launch of the PlayStation Move motion-controller just weeks away, Sony's gone and released an interesting technology demonstration reel showcasing what's possible via their upcoming control set-up. Anton Mikhailov guides us through a variety of tech-demos and hypothetical schemes that the combination of Move + Navigational Controller, Move + Move, and simply Move by itself can offer to not just gamers, but the average consumer as well.

looks fantastic. I think move is going to surprise many people.

[psman012]

Agreed. I cant believe its coming out in less than a month!

[ThatArtGuy]

Next week on Tuesday.

[totallysane]

comes out on a friday man...two weeks away

[Trebius]

I agree.

Everytime I see a new tech demo I get more excited ...

The PSMove is looking to be a worthwhile purchase for people that are interested in gaming with it.

The best part is even if you dont want to use it to game, it's going to be great navigating the web and messing around with the camera and making videos.

[sikbeta]

Damn PlayStation Move, it's shining already, this thing will be a total blast...

PlayStation Move = Augmented Reality FTW!!!

[Redempteur]

@sikbeta

actually MOVE is not required for augmented reality ...it's a tech that existed on Eye toy 1 , and was perfected to his state in 2005 .. the first PS3 AR game was eye of judgement ..folowwed by 5,6 mini games ..
heck even eyepet use it without move .

NOw i agree that AR with MOve seems WAY better than these previoous methods thanks to rumble and stuff.

[Pandemic]

The person in the above image looks drunk, ahaha.

[ABizzel1]

The chameleon, pottery/sculpting, and the 3D interface demos were amazing.

Make games and apps with those not demos.

[pain777pas]

@Frankymv

You're right. Software will be the key however, it seems easy to implement for basic stuff like shooters. I have a feeling we're going to be suprised at how well it works and for certain games wholeheartedly prefer playing with it than a controller.

[Silly Mammo]

I love how Sony keeps releasing new tech demos that show more and more things the Move can do. While MS comes up with more and more excuses about the limitations of Kinect.

Flame on!!

[zak94ma]

i think move will take kinect down .

[BlackBusterCritic]

Move > Kinect

Its just how I predicted it to be. Move offers gameplay similar to the Wii with more improvements, while Kinect remains to be the shaky piece of technology that was passed up by Nintendo and Sony. Hopefully Microsoft will learn from this. OH YEAH...how much are Kinect games going to cost? =D SIXTY BUCKS. Lol, I hope 360 owners enjoy it. Need any help moving your coffee tables? Gotta clear space to use Kinect!

[PS3-247]

Don't forget the new XBL fees lol.

[totallysane]

"THEY'RE GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEAT!"

[Shadow Flare]

You can see why Sony dropped the kinetc idea now. No buttons means a limited experience. And they would know after all cos of eyetoy. So well done Sony for being smart. And thanks for supporting the core ps3 gamers and not just focusing all on casual. Can't wait to try RUSE with Move. I couldn't give a crap if kinetc sold a billion. Move for me is way better and a true advancement in motion technology. Delivering real experiences, not just promising then then disappointing. Kinetc.

[CellularDivinization]

LOL are you seriously bragging about your new casual toy?

"my casual wiimote ripoff is better than your eyetoy ripoff"
Are you 12? If so, you are forgiven.

[SKGamer]

Unveal would be 'lacking meat of a young calf'

I don't feel like reporting this for such a stupid mistake, but please edit and fix it. It looks pretty bad to have an obvious error in your heading.

And since it's both here AND on the actual site, I'm assuming it wasn't just a typo, that someone at the site doesn't know the correct word.

[ThatArtGuy]

It's like a reveal, but the "un" side of it.

[jay2]

We already know that 50+ games will use MOVE, we don't need to say much more about Dis-kinect VS move, Dis-Kinect is a dead ma....cam downgrading.

[lovemyps3]

i honestly was never EVER going to buy the move, but when the games moved in and i seen socom, killzone 3, sorcery, heard about dead space extraction, littlebigplanet with move functionality..i FLIPPED!!!!! IM BUYING DAY 1 BABY!

[PS3-247]

Maybe we can meet up and buy it togather and take pictures. O_o

@totallysane
LOL me too.

[totallysane]

ill be takin pitcures day one. and posting on every m$ site i can lol

[totallysane]

welcome to the club man, lets all help make M$ wimper!!!

[maniacmayhem]

Does the Move have force feedback?

It would be cool if it did, especially for the part where he was climbing up the tree.

[SIR-DARK-HAZE]

it does.

[Daves]

Kinect deffo has none! :)

[CellularDivinization]

Interactive menus? Oh wow that sounds so new and revolutionizing oh man it sounds so awsome my heart is beating rapidly.
Interactive menus, never heard of it before. :D

[cossie123]

looks pretty good apart from the highly noticable LAG!!

if it work better than what is shown here then its a win for sony

same with kinect if they can reduce lag then its a win for ms

kinec is flamed cuz of lag but im seeing no difference between the 2 techs

Edit* why so many disagrees this seems a big problem on n4g people are quick to flame kinect and big up move. for god sake get real they are both great techs and have a lot of potential and both will succeed well.

[tiamat5]

Sorry cossie123. No noticable lag here. Probaly time to check your eyes or get a pair of glasses. Run to your nearest optician as quick as you can

[cossie123]

nothing wrong with my eyes matey boy.

[maniacmayhem]

You could see it when he was waving his arms all about in the very beginning of the video.

Still looks cool tho.

[cossie123]

i agree looks good and yes theres lag but both techs have lag. maybe in the next 12 months they will have it all ironed out as its mainly to do with software

[adamx]

WTF are you talking about? Unless you got microscope eyes, I didnt see any
lag at all.

[westy552]

Cossie has fanboy eyes, they only see what they wanna see, kinda like beer goggles, can turn any putrid women into a jennifer hawkins.

And I wasnt convinced a few months back with move, but now watching all the tech demos and vids on youtube ill be buying day one, looks very impressive.

[cossie123]

u moron im a gamer i enjoy all systems.i think you are the fanboy. ive been gaming for 28 years goin further back than the zx spectrum day and own nearly every system. so if owning and enjoying all formats makes me a fanboy then thats what i am a Gaming fanboy

[lovemyps3]

move has lag? lol!

[tiamat5]

22ms lag time is almost nothing. That is the lag time of Move. If you can see that so well cossie123 then congrads. Welcome to the X-men, mutant

[cossie123]

i do see it but its the case that the infamous ps3 fanboy cannot. i can see it with kinect too.

[danmachine]

to bring out Z brush on the ps3.. seriosly think about it, it would be huge even proffesionals would use it because its alot easier than using the mouse.

.....and we all know that everyone man would at least once make a pair of boobies ust for lolz.

[danmachine]

since i joined, does that deserve a + bubble? XD

[writersblock]

It deserves -bubble for asking for a bubble from a double post. But I'll let you off with a warning :P

[writersblock]

Double Post

[danmachine]

owned

[Noobasaurus_REX]

In backround!

[ApocalypseShadow]

when you record it using another camera,the camera filming will delay it.but anton stated this already.

[alb1899]

Is looking good but come on this video is old i saw it like in 3 different articles!

[Denethor_II]

Watching how fast Antons hands move, and how it is replicated in 1:1 (with the 22ms of lag which is impervous to the eye) simply wowed me. Which is why, although mostly seen before , I submitted this video.

[krauley]

will rock. You heard it here first.

[Whatever123456]

Amazing stuff im seeing here, blows my mind away at all the possibilities available with Move. Elder Scrolls 5? Swinging my sword and casting spells with the move? OMFG!!! Fight Night round 5 WITH MOVE AND 3D SUPPORT? Talk about a good workout :D, the list goes on forever people. Im so excited I cant sleep lmao. DAY 1 for sure!!!
