PS3's move controller

[Johnny blue]

The rarely talked about entry from Sony. The device will apparently be called the "Move". Seems like a safer move that M$'s Kinect as far as the games developed. Let's face it the thing is a direct rip of the wiimote.

Pro's obviously being it's supposedly under 100 and will work without buying a new console. Same successful tech as the wii (more or less) but, with "hardcore" gamer appeal. Basically it's a wii except the graphics won't suck and of course it's "very precise".

Anyways we'll see how this pans out and which company wins the battle.

interesting...i am so leery of the Wii controller as well as this new "Sony Move"...
it stems from growing up in the atari generation,then duck hunt when nintendo NES came out,then the power glove. i wanted that glove to be bad ass,bc i was a serious chick gamer all my life. my power glove was defective and by then i had already completed the games that i got specifically for the power glove.
to be honest. i miss the old nintendo and super nintendo games for some reason...maybe bc i am old
thanks for the info Jb.

Although ahead of its time, The Power Glove was a critical and commercial failure. The technology simply didn't exist to give it the precision needed to control games very well.

If you like NES and SNES games, which are now pretty much considered abandonware, look for ROM collections online, and play them on your PC with an emulator. I've had loads of fun doing this.
