Is Move worth it?

Is move really worth it? To me, no. But wait! Let me explain! Don't pull out your pitchforks just yet! And please keep in mind this is only one mans opinion.

Well then, as we all know Playstation move launches soon, it is a new motion controller to play certain games with. What games you ask? Well games like Eyepet, or maybe Brunswick Pro Bowling. Games are the key reason why I am not purchasing Playstation move. The games at the moment are very weak, and are simple shovelware. You may argue that I can use move to play the upcoming Killzone 3, or maybe Resident Evil 5. Sure I could, but why spend $60 to do that when I can play it right now with a controller? $60 to experience motion in games that offer support is not worth it in my opinion! Maybe down the road, the move will get a ton of fun exclusive games (which is expected) but for now, the move is not worth the money it costs.

Please feel free to express your opinions.

I totally agree.

[iamnsuperman]

All depends on what games you want....I am getting it for RUSE because it seamed like a great game from the demo and it should be easier using a move controller

[SeanRL]

I agree, for now. Later on I think it will become worth it though.

I have to see more games for both Move and Kinect before I make any judgements. Right now neither looks impressive. The fact that iamnsuperman is getting Move for an RTS game made by Ubisoft kinda proves my point.

so he proved that he was impressed by the 3d mouse like capabilities of the move, you just owned yourself

plenty of good games for it RUSE and Sports champions are good for starting, don;t forget patches for RE5, Eyepet and Heavy rain are coming, that will keep me happy until socom4 or time crisis, in the meanwhile I will try out the demo's I am interested in Tumble as it looks like a 3D Jenga to me.
Fact is people won't be able to resist by 2011, lots of move games coming and most of them will be good. Sorcery will be a massive boost for ps move!!

ONLY reason why i refuse to get move is because I already own a PSeye.

And it'll cost me 89$ to get 1 move + sports champ, while the bundle WITH the PSeye is giving the same deal for 99$

Until I see a better incentive for PSeye owners, I dont care how good move is.
It just feels like they are ripping off the ppl who bought their PSeye early into the cycle.

(don't get me wrong, i'm VERY excited for move, had it preordered but cancelled it recently coz of this)

[jneul]

all you need is one move and then just download the demo's on psn, that will do you until the next month, it's not expensive my bill is bigger than yours becauase I am getting the starter pack, 1xmove + sports champions lol

Tried Move at PAX. I played table tennis, and it felt like real table tennis.

I expect great things from Move, the same way I expect great (but different) things from Kinect.

Everyone keeps forgetting time crisis and dead space extraction... Those are huge reasons to get it for myself... I care less about most everything else but responsive, good quality light Gun games make it great to me. My fiance could really get into a game like those as well. Simple yet not hildish in anyway... I feel this will be the best thing on move. It's nothing super new or innovative but so Lon as it's as responsive and good as everyone says I am excited to get a couple move controllers...

I personally am getting it (just the one controller though as I already have a camera). Cause for me its not a case of buying a peripheral just to play one game...but rather to buy it to enable me to play many games in different ways.

Seeing as I already have heavy rain and MAG (both of which will get a patch), then I am getting res evil 5 gold edition (just cause its 12 quid), and will most definitely be getting killzone 3 and LBP2....thats already 5 "core" games that will give me the option to play around with the move. On top of those I got to play the sport games in a recent beta event...and in all honestly the table tennis game pretty much single handedly convinced me to buy the controller. It was phenomenally good at tracking my movements (and I really enjoy table tennis). Not to forget PSN games like echochrome 2 which looks superb, and even simple games like tumble seem to be intriguing me.

However you have to keep in mind that for me the cost of making my system move enabled is 27 quid. So for me, price wasn't an issue.

i was at Pax too, and saw both Kinect and Move in action. Kinect was very laggy, and seemed to perform at a substandard level, especially since the games being demo'd require fast movements and quick reflexes. Move, on the other hand, looked very precise and quick to respond.

I'm not saying i'm gonna buy it the second it comes out, or ever for that matter - but if i was in the market for the motion control bandwagon, i'd go with Move over Kinect or Wii anyday.

Its worth it for FPS when they remove the dumb deadzone. I dont like having to move the crosshairs to the edge of the screen before the character turns around.
