What's with the PS3 Move?

I finally got roped into buying the PS3 move.

After a layer of dust an inch thick on my Wii, and a Kinect that is yet to be fired up over the last three months you would think I would have learnt my leason as it pertains to gimmicks.

Future Shop was selling the Tiger Woods + Move Bundle for 79.99 and I have a 25 Dollar Gift Card so I figured why not?

The first thing that struck me was how expensive of a system the Move is;

Full price for a move and cam is 99.99, then you need a Nav controller, and the Charging Station becomes a must depending on how many USB ports are already occupied by your other PS3 stuff.

You are easily at the cost of a Kinect to have the hardware needed to support one player at a time, yikes.

Setting it all up is pretty straightforward save for an issue I had downloading the updates for Tiger Woods,

The thing that really gets me is that I can have four people playing Kinect or a bunch of people playing Wii within the current configuration of my gaming room without having to move anything around.

With the Move, I found I needed to move my coffee table to the side and be much further back then I have experienced with the Kinect. That can be a bit of an issue when I am just one person and basically just trying to swing the move like a golf club.

Maybe I am just doing it wrong but this thing seems destine for the closet...
