[QUOTE="Half-Way"]

[QUOTE="Origami_Kill3r"] you know nothing about tec. Origami_Kill3r

and you know nothing about creativity and design

Yes I do. But the M+ is circled implying that its that same.

no O,o

its circled because this picture is taken from the commercial, and they do that circle thing on there, they also make the "wii" sound when showing it.

sales dont matter LOL get real kiddies, if sales didn't matter FF13 would only be on PS3

if sales didn't matter Sega would still have a system

onewiththegame

ahh its refreshing hearing some sense in SW sometimes...sales do matter they matter the most no sales=no games, and this arguement doesnt even make sense if it has to do with motion controls all i got to say is virtual boy and power glove was before any of this.

p.s your name is very clear to why i see you made this thread:P

[QUOTE="djsifer01"]Sales matter to nobody other than the company selling the product. On Topic: I dont think Sony copied Nintendo at all with move. If anything, they made a better version of motion controls.Origami_Kill3r

There isn't proof yet that The Move is better. That's only an assumption.

LOL the tec demos have proved the move is more accurate

the tech demo just showed it lags just as much or if greater the M+...are we looking at the same tech demo?

I could only imagine if this was an general consumer electronics forum. There would be so many they copied this threads lol Because features are similar doesn't mean they were made with the intention of riding someones wave!!!!!!!

It's a little bit annoying that everyone keep saying that Sony copied Nintendo 100% on this. It's just wrong. Nintendo obviously copied Sony from their collection of motion sensing games and then they created the Wiimote... Blind Nintendo Fanboys definitely won't see this. But I would I agree that Sony copied the Wiimote with PSMove.

All these companies copy each other, why do you guys think we have videogame standards, and new generation's of technology?

All I care about is if something is done well, and I like the game...then I buy it.:P

Iknow right.... its absolutely ridiculous that some people here fool themselves into thinking otherwise. PS Move is a direct attempt at copying Nintendo's success.

I don't understand this notion that cows are treating it as an orignal idea or something. Yet I remember cows going crazy when the 360 was rumored to have a six-axis like controller. Hell, they call the Natal an eyetoy rip-off and talk about how it will fail without buttons, but PSMove= New and awesome. :|

the move or whatever it's called was created for 1 reason aand one reason only: Revenue. the same goes for project natal. Do you think the companies are creating games where u can do stuff like paint elephants because they feel that those are high quality products? no. Theyre just jumping on the motion bandwagon a little late into the show. That is just how business works, and how it will continue to work for a long time. When one company has a breakthrough hit, another company will imitate it to get a piece of our wallets intended for the original item. A perfect example is hollywood and the 3-D craze. 3-D started popping up here and there, then movies like Avatar made it a smash box office hit. Now the majority of fantasy filmscreated incorporate the 3-D idea. It's really kinda pathetic actually when you see things like "the move" being announced. It makes some Sony fans realize that their game corporation isntmainly about gamer appreciation and quality. They want a lot of quick bank too, at the cost of hardcore gamer respect because that has now moved to 2nd on their top priority list. Until Move becomes a total blowout anyway, then u hardcore gamers are the favorite audience again.

Damn fakeboy's, don't you have anything better to do. No Sony fan would use that idiotic advert in their banner if they want to be taken seriously, add to this the poor argument and its obvious we just fed a troll :roll:... /facepalm

Do any of you arguing about this actually care about the Sony Wand anyway? I know I don't, if I wanted to play crappy shovelware with a controller designed for middle-aged, technophobe housewives I would play it on the Wii. There is nothing for 360 or PS3 owners to celebrate here, Microsoft and Sony are dumbing down their consoles in a vain attempt to appeal to the non-gamer market that Nintendo have already sewn up. The amount of money and time they have spent on R&D for these projects would be much better spent developing new games. I bought a 360 to play good quality games, not because I desperately wanted an overpriced Wii.

Yes, because everyone in gamespot who plays the wii is a middle aged, technophobe housewife.

C'mon, hasn't sony been copying Nintendo forever? Crash Bandicoot? While that's not a blatant copy, it's a mascot platformer that was started to brand the system with. Then the N64 rolls around and mario64 blows the playstation out of the water--didn't sony then make its own analog controller and then release Spyro? The Move isn't only a copycat device, it is a SHAMELESS one. Just look at the very design of the unit, it's ridiculous.
