Since there is no dildo...err move topic

Some gaf loser got himself a dildo...err move package thing

Overall the device is nice, a little heavier than what I would have expected. As I mentioned in another thread I had to stand for every game but it isn't because of the technology, it's more because the games were designed that way. For example, Sports Champions' table tennis allows you to move in all directions to play the ball and is surprisingly effective. I will try and be more detailed about it in the description of the titles.

Controlling the PS3 interface with the Move controller is really frustrating. Hold in the trigger and shake the stick to move in all directions... but it is waaaay too sensitive. I found myself giving up and reaching for the DS3. The web browser also does not create a virtual mouse which I thought would have been a nice touch.

The input lag is noticeable with everything. Not so much that it is make or break, but it is noticeable. It's a little like playing online and mentally compensating for a specific lag while playing.

 :rofl :rofl
stards annihilated

I also am really disappointed there is no consistent interface between games. Sports Champions will actively tell you when your controller is not in view of the PSEye, Tiger just makes wild assumptions. Some games ask you to calibrate by hitting the action button and pointing at the Eye, some the trigger, some the X button. You also must calibrate every controller between every different title.

A lot of the games don't know what to call the main button yet either. It's weird to see it called different things across different titles.

I don't understand the coloring of the sphere either. A little consistency would have gone a long way. Some games player 1 is green, some it's purple. The only true way to tell what controller you are holding is to hit the PS button on the wand as there are no led indicators on the wands themselves.

You can tell from the branding, name, aesthetics, and the very derivative nature in general of the Move that its not going to cut it this holiday season. The kinect looks kinda buggy too  but I'm not confident on calling that either way.

Motion control is garbage. I'm going to spend this December playing through a backlog of games that have been reduced in price to $19.99 and pretending that none of this is actually happening

I've managed to avoid the whole Wii phenomenon so I don't imagine this should be too difficult

This week's bombcast is pretty damning about kinect.  Apparently, the thing needs like 10 feet of empty space (although they said 13) between you and the sensor to properly "see" your body. This pretty much excludes everyone below the uppermiddle class when it comes to living room arrangements.

here's the quick look
