Read the article, I still may get it, I mean yeah, that was all I was expecting from it. A Wii in HD, Kinect on the other hand... I'm still more skeptical about it.

Gizmodo is generally skeptical and cynical of anything sony. They bashed the sony x-series mp3 player and praised the zune HD. I bought the zune HD and now I'm wishing I had bought the x-series.

It'll be nice to see what Sony will present and there own twist in it. I don't play consoles, I play games, it'll be nice to see a Jak game built around this. I basically play Wii for games unique to the console, which Is why I own all 3. With the power of PS3, and Wii style controls it'll be great. I would like Killzone 3 to have a move option in it.

You do see my psn gamer tag right? In terms of tech, it's basically just Wii motion plus with the WM+ built right in. WM+ is already successful and in a ton of homes, not to mention that it's a pack in now.

That's pretty understandable since the concept is pretty much the same actually exactly the same. Have a controller in your hand, move it around, and control the game on screen with motion.

They already did, and I don't see where it's more than Wii on PS3. When that guy showed Tiger Woods it looked just like Tiger Woods 2010(or 09) on Wii. I'm interested in Sorcery though, looks like.

What? Ok... no it isn't. PS3 is PS3 brand, PS3 is miles bett,,, why am I even typing this. You're probably a Wii hating fanboy that before hand hater motion controls right? Move never looked more than that of a direct Wii clone., and believe me, PS3 is my favorite console. It's just looks like a shameful rip off that looks no better to me, at least it isn't Kinect.

Hey they're showing the stage demo for Sports Champion with the Move right now on GS. And they're using two Move controllers in the games. The Sports Motion bundle only comes with one Move controller, what the?

Guess what guess................... saying move is just wiiHD is just like saying ps3 is a nes with better graphics. Guess what by that same comparison a 360 is a nes with better graphics.

And no Im not a wii hating fanboy because I wont say " Your right the MOVE IS JUST A WII MOTE LULZ HAHAHAHA"

Duck Hunt PS3 ****

Why wouldn't I buy an itouch? Because I want my mp3 player to have good sound quality? Not just good apps? cnet quotes: itouch "Unfortunately, as much as Apple seems inspired to push the limits of processor speed and video game graphics rendering, the attention it pays to audio quality and sound enhancement is at a standstill. The arsenal of sound enhancement settings packed into MP3 players from Sony, Cowon, and Samsung, lay in stark contrast to the unchanged and marginally useful list of EQ presets included on the iPod." x-series: "Foremost, audio quality is excellent, even through the packaged earbuds, which themselves are much higher in quality than those included with nearly any other MP3 player (the Touch among them)."

Well... duh.

From the software shown so is Kinect basically without the need to hold anything, except probably less accurate than motion+, and without buttons, and seemingly incompatible with good games.

I agree and disagree. Even with the Motion+ add on, the wiimote still isn't perfect 1-1 motion because any time the wiimote isn't pointing directly at the sensor bar you are relying entirely on the internal components. So while it works MUCH better with WM+, I've still noticed some issues when I'm playing my Wii Sports Resort.

On the other hand, the combination of the eye toy and Playstation move controller is much more accurate than the Wii setup as far as I've been able to tell.

Having said that, I bought the Wii for some fun motion control games and I bought the PS3 for more serious games. I won't be buying Move at all.

Well so what? That is what it is advertised, that is what it was. And that is what it always will be. A motion based controller for HD consoles. We already knew this. I don't understand th big deal. If you liked the wii-motio+ and liked the aiming tat is exactly what move is doing for HD games. Is this a bad thing?

It is more accurate. This is a fact. The fact that it is still a wii hd is true as well. The contorl is the exact same set up as wii-mote. It is a fact. If you liked the wii-motion+ or anything about wii-mote such as aiming etc. Than move is a good item. I don't understand sheep thought process at all on this. They call it a wii-mote clone and than hail the wii-mote as this great device. Wouldn't that logically mean they are interested in move? Gizmondo is a joke site though.

Accuracy has nothing to do with it. The fact that is supports games like Socom, Killzone 3, LBP2 and many other core games is proof that its more then a wii HD. If you want to see a wii HD go take a look at Kinects line up at the end of Microsofts kinect demonstration, casual and fitness games galore.

Kinect sucks. Everyone knows that. It isn't conceivable to makeanythingbut shovelware on the device since you need to have an analogue stick to move around a world. When people figure out the importance of analogue sticks in todays games, I will be proud.

wii supports both casual and hardcore games. When talking about the wii, it is universially discussing the wii-mote because everything else about the console is rather sub par besides that.

Kinect has a sticky Move does not.;)

Only the MS E3 sticky. Why should Kinect talk be limited to that, where nobody's really paying attention anymore, yet move threads are not limited to the Sony E3 sticky?

Mods like to make SW BORING. whyTF force user to 4 threads about e3. Who cares if E3 topic were to fill up SW its better then the usual.

anyway, its pretty much the same and I dont see how its that much more responsive than the Wii. Especially during that golf demo where there was a good 2 second delay.

well in wii resort archery you point at the ceiling and it still works fine for aiming the bow.
