I just want your guy's thoughts on it. I know it's been discussed before but it's beginning to look a lot better and a lot more people have been getting their hands on it and coming back with good comments. I found this video review of it and it all sounds pretty good.15591
@MrNDSteinbach yes yes yes, you're dreadfully clever with your shadowed references to the Nintendo Wii, there is clearly no end to your wit… except you're a massive moron, being first doesn't mean being best… Apple weren't first to make an MP3 player, but when they invented the iPod it quickly kicked the shit out of the rest of the market, because they did it in a way people liked better. Fuck, even NINTENDO didn't invent the game console, THEY copied what others had been doing for YEARS too
Playstation Move?

Motion sensors are just a gimmick. A gimmick that gets too old too soon. I don't care from what company it is, what color it is or what name its got, it'll be fun(ny) for the first few days after purchase and afterwards it'll collect dust in the living room except for when you get visit at home that stopped playing videogames after the Playstation 2 came out and want to try it out.
You'll then realize that deep down you bought it "for teh lulz".Also, from a business viewpoint, Sony and Microsoft are rather late to the motion-sensing thing. Even if their products blow the Wii's away, people already have experience with motion-sensing controllers, and if they're trying to get casuals in, remember that people have bought more Wii consoles than games. Why would they buy that other console if they've got the Wii, that does the same? (I'm guessing that's what Wii-owning casual players will think when they see a PS3 move or Xbox360 kinect advertisement)His whole killer-app argument is pretty flawed but it does genuinely seem better than the Wii (which, incidentally, I was never impressed with to begin with). We'll see if the motion recognition sticks or if it fades away.
I didn't watch the video btw.
This motion stuff coming from MS and Sony is destined to fail, why? Because it's not an integral part of the console, it's an addon, and as such they have a little problem: most people won't buy them until many games support it, and most developers won't develop for them until many people have it. In the end very few people buy the addon and very few games come out that actually use it.Look at the WiiMotion Plus, more precise and everything, yet it's been a year already and there are too few games making use of it.http://www.rahulsood.com/2010/07/console-gamers-get-killed-against-pc.html
Mouse is just a far more accurate, responsive, and efficient input than a joystick.In RawrSpoon's words, move mouse over target's head, click.
I hate the Wii's pointer, and I can't say Move's is going to be any less annoying. So for the love of God, bring back the keyboards we type on with our analog sticks, and not the ones we have to find and click with a stupid shaky remote.>implying the iPod is a good mp3 player and people don't buy them simply because they are for some reason considered 'cool' or 'hip'
Well that is another story. But I thought the original one was awesome.
