Move Sells 1.5 Million in Europe, Estimated 300k in the U.S.

Looks like overall reviews from critics are that the PS3 move is good stuff!

the games so far tho..... uhhhhmmmm not so much lol.. I hear heavy rain is amazing, eye pet, sports champs, and MAG(if you fiddle with the controls a bit there's a vid on youtube about it) are all awesome.. havent heard anything about resident evil 5 yet tho..

Move critic reviews

Alot of people are comparing the Wii and PS Move and rightfully so, they are pretty much the same, with movie obviously being better. At this point though its really going to come down to who has the better games, and in all honesty I think the PS3 is capable of much more, so i'm expecint alot, hope no dissapiontment lies ahead.

This will be the game i'm most looking forward too, hopefully sony doesn't dissapoint.. The Fight: Lights Out!

Most people however are looking forward to TIME CRISIS! be honest, how many of you are gona buy the gun thing... i will...

Playstation move Game List and Reviews:

Brunswick Bowling 5.5

Kung Fu Riders 4.0

Sports Champions 7.5

I think someone reviewed Resident Evil 5 and said it sucks. Figures since it is a game designed not for Move but we should wait for more Move designed games to see what's up.

It's pretty much the Wii mote in HD. Critics have loved the Wii mote, why wouldn't they like this? I tried it out at Best Buy. It pretty much felt the same, but I don't think I'll bother buying that thing until more games support it.

Move is the better tech. It's basically a more accurate Wiimote with a much better button layout, plus kinect in one package.

I'm sure the tech is fine and precise, but I'm still waiting for actual games to come out that makes worthwhile use of it.

Haven't tested Kinect, but I can say that Move > Wii mote. I love how well the games I have work and I can't wait for the shoot and Tv superstar. I also like the combo of move and 3D which works extremly well in tumble.

May be you need to turn on ur PS3 :lol: On topic: Actually it got better reviews than we thought. Even SCs is wel received by critics, they didn't critisize it as being another Wii sport, it excelled over Wii sport in almost everything, which many haters doubted in the first place.

Move is clearly the best and wii doesnt stand a chance in graphics/physics making it look very poor compared.Also, 3D in HD with motion control brings it to a whole new level.

If he really did play both and owns a wii he'd never ever have said they were both the same unless he's a fanboy and doesn't want to give Move the praise of being more accurate or better to use and hold.

The Move is what the Wii motes wish they were and Kinect sucks because it can only do 2p games and can't do shooters not having controllers.

The Move 10/10

Wii Motion 8.5/10

Kinect 7/10

This is how I see it owning 2 Wiis and 3 PS3s and watching vids and reading up about Kinect.

I have both and they are different and move is better...but not by a lot. The difference in accuracy between WSR ans SC is minimal. They're both 1:1.

As for shooters like RE5 and MAG they are EXACTLY the same since neither wiimote or move is using ANY motion tech for shooters. Actually, I'd give the wii the control edge with shooters since its pointer is a bit more accurate than move's. Move's gets a tiny bit laggy.

Even Boom Blox and Tumlbe control equally.

Where Move's potential really shines is in games that use depth control.

According to reviews RE5 is centered whenever you enter aiming mode, the cam doesn't need to see the controller and it's purely based on internal sensors. Which sounds like a stupid thing to do, but allows a much more relaxed position while playing, because you don't have to constantly aim at the screen.

Even Boom Blox and Tumlbe control equally.

No, just... no. I'm sure you played both, so I simply can't figure how you would come to that conclusion. In Boom Blox you never stack (and the controls wouldn't even remotely allow that), the closest you get is pointing at a block, pressing A and having the relative motion move the point to which force is applied. In Tumbe you can twist and turn the pieces any way you like, Boom Blox doesn't even support Motion+ and without the gyro has no decent way to even know how the controller is oriented. One is "point and flick", the other is 1:1 control.

Kinetch is the better Tech (as far as your poll goes), but MOVE will more likely be better for games.

Without controllers Kinect is limited to 2p games and no shooters. This makes it not the best tech.

well i must be missing something because the wii has more good games that use motion controls well then the move, so the only reason to buy it now is some sorta "hope" that it will get those types of titles later...

Then my question would be, why didnt those people buy the wii before when it was in the same position? It was better for games then both eyetoy and sixaxis, so people should have had the same "hope" for good titles as they have now with the move.

it all seems very hypocritical
