Kinect Vs. Move *OFFICIAL

Kinect for Xbox 360 (formerly known by the code name Project Natal (pronounced /nəˈtɒl/ nə-tahl)),
or simply, Kinect, is a "controller-free gaming and entertainment experience" by Microsoft for the Xbox 360
video game platform. Based around an add-on peripheral for the Xbox 360 console, it enables users to control
and interact with the Xbox 360 without the need to touch a game controller through a natural user interface
using gestures, spoken commands, or presented objects and images. The project is aimed at broadening the Xbox
360's audience beyond its typical gamer base

PlayStation Move is an upcoming motion-sensing game controller platform for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) video game
console by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE). Based on handheld motion controller wand, PlayStation Move uses the
PlayStation Eye camera to track the wand's position, and inertial sensors in the wand to detect its motion. First
revealed on June 2, 2009, PlayStation Move is slated for worldwide launch in Q3/Q4 2010. Hardware available at launch
includes the main PlayStation Move motion controller, and an optional PlayStation Move navigation controller. It will
compete with the Kinect (previously known as Natal) and Wii Remote motion control systems for the Xbox 360 and Wii
home consoles, respectively.

Move showed off a real game, unlike Kinect, so I vote Move.Guppy507

If I have to pick one, based on the software, Move.

Also, Kinect Forza as a name made me chuckle. It would probably result in a lawsuit from Milton Bradley.

My post from the other thread

Kinect:
4 players, (lets assume for now)
=$149.

PS Move:
1 Player starter pack $99.
1 Player Sub controller: $29.

1 Player Move controller x3 @ $49 = $147
1 Player Sub controller x 3 @ $29 = $87
= $362

Keep in mind that some of the Move games require 2 Move Controllers to function (archery, etc)

PS Move PS3 Bundle: $399
1 Player Sub controller: $29.

1 Player Move controller x3 @ $49 = $147
1 Player Sub controller x 3 @ $29 = $87
= $662

Move, easily. A device like Kinect that only plays mini-games doesn't interest me.

I'm not sold on the Move yet though. It needs a killer app.

child of eden is also coming on ps3

Ape Escape? when was it announced? :O

Ha, easily Move. At least Sony is actually using it with some core games, while also keeping it optional in those games as well. It also seems to perform really well. Hard to knock them for that.

Well, they're both really bad IMHO but I think move is a little better.

From a technology standpoint, Kinect. From a software standpoint, Wiimote. I won't be getting either Sony or Microsoft's motion control devices.

Skittles is the name of my cat. It has been for years

now her name is tarnished :evil:

4 players?

Why on earth are you including the price of PS3 with your second example?

I cannot believe that people are actually voting for Kinect and it's fail of a line-up over Move that is actually being utilized towards core games, while also keeping it optional to use a controller as well.

I've only watched the MS press conference (Nintendo conference is buffering ATM) but I was very impressed by Kinect's presentation. MS seems to be heavily invested into it and giving it a load of killer features. The only thing missing for it, currently, is its killer app (which I don't think will take long to surface).

I haven't seen Move in action yet, but anything $200 and lower for me is purchase worthy regarding Kinect.

Nope, only a concept art pic. It was a twitter announcement.

Why are you assuming people already own a 360 and not a PS3 in your calculations? If you already own a PS3, why buy the PS3 bundle for $399? The cost drops by $400, albeit it probably will be more expensive than Kinect either way.

GS is overridden with cows so I expect Kinect to lose, but its holding its own. Kinect of course will sell better than MOVE.

4 Players? Link or it never happened.

Move for me. Socom 4 looked awesome in that IGN video. The Sorcery game had average setting/artstyle, but the seemingly accurate gameplay won me over. Not to mention, KZ 3 if it turns out to control like some first person games on the Wii (MoH Heroes 2 and MP3 controls were great).

Both suck. If they really want to sell me motion controls, they need to quit messing around with theseexercise gamesand minigames, and get some real, competent developers behind their products.

Move >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kinect

I guess I'd choose move if held at gunpoint.

Honestly neither one is better than the other, just less terrible.

[QUOTE="KittenWishes"]

I included the price of the PS3 Move bundle which is $399 and only comes with the EyeToy and one Move Controller, no sub controller.

Yes, 4 players. People are whinging about the price of Kinect but thats what it gives out of the box at a one-time cost.

To have the same 4 player experience with the PS Move you would have to pay the above amounts.

Even for 2 players (1 Starter pack, 1 Move Controller and 2 Sub Controllers) the price is $206.

Then a comparison isn't actually legitamit because you're dealing with random numbers on the Xbox 360 side. You can't really have a legitamit comparison when you state how much it's going to cost for system plus motion sensing tech on one console compared to an imaginary number for just motion sensing tech on the other console. It's like comparing the PS4 to the Wii. You can't make a comparison that's meaningfull unless you have the numbers on both items you are comparing.

I will never buy kinect it never impressed me with anything but move seems to have some good games.

What if that skittles tiger jumped out of the tv and ate you? What if the Sony motion controller's magic ball exploded?

Why is this thread official?

I said this last E3 and MS proved it to me yesterday

Kinect isn't capable of supporting real games (at least yet)

I will not be getting kinect but I will probably get Move.

Kinect just doesn't seem practical to me and MS don't seem to care about making "real" games for it.

I'm not paying extra money just for a cool way to go through the 360 dash.

Right now I'm with move and I would like to see it in action in some FPS games.
