So I am trying to decide whether or not to get PS Move controllers. I borrowed my buddy's controller, and playing Dead Space Extraction is pretty fun with Move, but honestly it still feels a tad clunky. I am wondering if the single player of KZ3, RE5, and the other Move supported games make this a worthy purchase.

I love playing with the Move, on some games it works wonderfully. However, on some games it's not so great (RE5 for example).


Right now, I'm not sure there are enough quality move games to not have some regret at the purchase.

You'll feel how much better the controller is than the Wii just by playing the sports pack, but then again, it comes down to the games and there are not that many right now.

I tried it at a store on KZ3.. Its pretty neat but i didn't have the time to get really used to it to see the advantages but it's definitely pretty good... I feel bad about not buying it now after i gave it lots of praise to the workers to show them their efforts weren't in vein.

see, the KZ3 single player and the Resistance 3 single player (when it comes out) I would totally play with move if it wasn't a huge handicap, but I would never play multiplayer, just because in order to stay competitive I would feel better with the controller

I picked up a bunch of move stuff at launch, and it really depends on the game. Wii Spor... I mean Sports Champions is fun, Start the Party is fun for kids (little kids), Resident Evil just plain sucks using Move, and Kung Fu Rider well the less said about that the better. The games I've had the most fun with though are rail shooters, The Shoot and Time Crysis are sweet as using the Move (when stuffed in those Sony gun controllers). I can't wait for House of the Dead, that's going to rock!

It's not at all worth it at full price. If you can find them cheap...and I mean cheap then they are good for a few days. They quickly lose value as it's really just not going to keep interest for very long. I would pass, apply that money to all the quality games coming out in the next few months.

not worth it.

i bought it with the navigation controller at release and have used it a handful of times.

i just cant find a game that i want that uses it. (i refuse to play kz3 with it).

we play "start the party" every now and then if my little cousins come over.

waste of potential i think. but i hope future software proves me wrong.

I enjoy sports champions and its a fun game to play with friends and motion control and as I don't have a wii it's my motion control fix. I have only really played kz3 with the sharpshooter move controller, I played the campagin with it when I first started and all my online play is with the sharpshooter. To be honest I think this made kz3 way more fun and memorable for me, cause taking a step back its sorta just a average blockbuster shooter, but with the move it was far more fun experience for me. That said said I havnt played a shooter without the sharpshooter except the deadspace game so I can't judge that experience. Also the ps move sharpshooter controls are something that you have to take the time to learn and is not for everyone.

I don't regret picking up Move but I don't use it that often. It's great for a change of pace though. Every now and then I'll pop in Sports Champions or The Shoot and it keeps my gaming experience fresh.

I agree on this...
