If you enjoy motion controlers, sure. I'm having a lot of fun with friends by playing games like sports championship and start the party ^^

YES!!! My Wii is now packed up and will be traded in next week lol..... The games ont he PS3 don't compare to the Wii games, so much more realistic on the PS. (Just my opinion. Thats all)

I'm wondering the same thing but for different reasons. The only wii games I really enjoyed were Twilight Princess and Mario Kart but that had nothing to do with the motion controls. Maybe motion controls just aren't for me, or maybe nintendo hasn't catered to my needs? Who knows? I think I'll wait until the new year before deciding if move is worth it. And by deciding I mean letting other people decide and basing my decision on their feedback.

Well for me personally, no. Not a huge fan of motion controls, and I'm the only one who plays my PS3, so all these motion party games would be useless to me.

Right now it's barely worth buying. I like mine well enough but the games just don't justify the price tag for me. Once some decent games come I know this will change, bring em on!

Yes! It's so much better than the Wii. It's very accurate and fast. I played with the motion plus before, so I can compare.

Sorcery seems like a nice use of Move, so i'll probably wait for reviews on it before starting the idea of buying it.

Most podcasts lately (including the one on this site) have said that this is still an unfulfilled promise, there aren't any games yet and it works great and all, but that it might be too little too late to get a motion controller program up and running on this Gen... and I tend to agree. Look at the Wii, Nintendo is the master of it's own destiny, and the Wii only has a handful of games which REALLY makes great use of motion control and offers an exemplary gaming experience.

If Sony doesn't get the killer apps for this motion control scheme out soon and hit a home run, it's DOA. One Sports-themed game doth not a controller change make... Already owning a Wii, you should probably see that pretty clearly.

Those who say "there are no good games for Move" must not be paying attention. Sports Champions and the Blu-ray release of High Velocity Bowling are good stuff. Heavy Rain uses the Move wonderfully. Resident Evil 5: Gold is great with the Move and feels very familiar to anyone who has played RE4 on Wii. Tiger Woods 11 is pretty much the same experience as on Wii but with far better graphics and sound. Those who have played MAG with the Move mostly liked the controls, myself included. Right there you have six titles at launch to spend hours enjoying.

John Daly's ProStroke Golf looks good and comes out on 10/5. NBA 2K11 has already received awesome reviews and comes out on 10/5. The Shoot demo is great and that comes out on 10/26. The Fight looks great from everything I've seen and that comes out on 11/9.

Even a couple of the party games are fairly enjoyable and there's a couple good titles on PSN as well. Maybe the problem is people don't want to spend the cash... I've sunk around $300 into Move controllers and games and am having a great time, so the problem may be as simple as I stated.

With what is already out and what is coming in the next few months it's a sure thing that Sony is fully behind making Move a success.

I will probably buy it when Sorcery, or whatever it's called,comes out. That's the only game that has piqued my interest so far.

It's pretty damn good. I was actually surprised at it's responsiveness and legitimate 1 : 1 tracking. I'd easily recommend it if you can afford it. If not, wait for a price drop! That being said, I still enjoy my other motion console and wouldn't go as far as 'trading it in'

Yeah, I think you've hit the nail on the head - If I had sunk $300 into it, I'd be enjoying it or ELSE...

... I need something in the Move library which says "Gotta Have It" though... I'm into it for Tiger Woods, I will eventually want it for that game. But even $150 to get started is wayyyy out o my spending range right now, and seriously I need more games of the sort I'm into playing. Not a basketball fan. Absolutely hate RE4/RE5 gameplay, not a fan. Could really care less about support for online shooters because I would rather play those with game pads which I'm used to... Until they start porting "Lethal Enforcers 2", "Point Blank!" and other light gun games, I doubt anything is coming shooter-wise which will turn my head.

Glad you're enjoying it, but there's really nothing for the system I want it for yet - Even "R.U.S.E." Move support is reportedly gawd-awful... a bummer, because I would think motion control would be a great feature in an RTS like that...

RUSE Move support sucks because its the developers fault. For some dumb reason they made it so that the game would only use the gyroscope in the game and not the actual ps move technology ( ps eye tracking the sphere)

Gladiators, Bocce ball, and disc golf are the games I am addicted to. They are amazingly fun.

[QUOTE="ReaperV7"] Gladiators, Bocce ball, and disc golf are the games I am addicted to. They are amazingly fun.

I've been alternating between Heavy Rain, Resident Evil 5, High Velocity Bowling, Disc Golf, Bocce and Archery. After playing Heavy Rain and RE5 so much before I'm surprised I've put as much time into them as I have and am currently halfway through new playthroughs on both. Archery is so awesome with two Move controllers. I've yet to play Gladiator Duel since picking up my second controller, but I'll probably get hooked in the next few days after I do. I played High Velocity Bowling for three hours last night and cannot believe how much more realistic the controls are over Wii Sports/Wii Sports Resort Bowling. After my first couple games I was getting the real bowling feel and that is something I never experienced on the Wii as I scored strike after strike with the flick of a wrist. High Velocity actually demands that you play with good real life bowling form if you want good results.

get sports champions and tumble (you can get heavy rain if you want but you would save money buying 2 games) then they will last you until the shoot,tv superstars, motion fighters and sly cooper come out. then i recommend you playing those till sorcerry, killzone 2, lbp 2 and socom come out.

Just bought it tonight to try out and see for myself after hearing some good things about it. Charging up the controllers now...
