PlayStation Move “Quite Good Actually”

playstation-move-controller.jpg

Videos of leaked PlayStation Move gameplay purport to show that the controller is not a stultifying Wiimote knock-off after all:

Despite initial doubts that Sony’s offering was a cheap rip-off of the Wii whilst only Microsoft had anything original to offer, it is beginning to seem that Kinect has significant problems, whilst the Move may yet avoid failed controller hell.

    I never really liked the super sensitive navigation for the Wii. I lose my nerve for every miss I make with that pointer. And that's just the Wii menu goddammit.

    That's why its called Wii.
    Your pointer literally goes "WIIIIIII" around the screen without brakes.

    On another note; Am I the only one still thinking it's a giant, colorful but useful dildo?

    Well, it aims better than Wii.

    Also with the press button to navigate function you won't have to lose the narrow pointer range after you've put the remote down :P

    You're not the only one. That thing IS a glowing dildo.

    Add a cam and it can be used as endoscope. ^_^

    It's TWO dildos. Luckily, girls have two holes to explore as well! How suspiciously convenient of them...

    @Schrobby So women will put it in the mouth hole? I guess it would work if you're into BDSM. Otherwise, I'm sure his comment was directed at the rear end... unless I'm reading this way too wrongly.

    Hmmm. The archery game shows a firing arc? I hope thats just on the easy mode or can turn that off because thats kinda shitty.

    And I kinda wanted to see the sword fighting in action... So I could actually see how it works when shit gets frantic.

    same with lonesnipa, i wonder why didn't he show the sword fighting, from the demo i do notice the lag, not sure how fast swings will work out too.

    i did notice lag too, but i think they all have a little lag. maybe do to the amount of information traveling. i don't know, i notice some of my wireless mouses have lag too. either way if the lag is consistant regardless of the speed of motion, then i wouldn't count it as a total loss, just a bit of a learning curve.

    To be completely honest, I really don't see much of a difference. PS3 graphics and a wii mote (with glowy ball).

    Fits better than the Wii? Fits where? I'm both disgusted and confused.

    Actually, once that ball pops in it'd suck ass to pull back out. Probably make a disgusting ~plop~ noise too. The Wii-mote is more streamlined.

    That glowing ball will be Sony's anal dildo downfall.

    Maybe it's because I've only played the Wii a few times, but it looks like there's a lot less lag on the new controller compared to the wiimote? It'd make sense being that it's newer technology, but this way it actually makes motion sensor controllers actually... playable.

    Yes, it does fit better. The Wii controller's angles have proven to be quite uncomfortable during insertion.

    "insertion" might be unfitting

    ok unfitting might be misleading too for some people (unfitting actually is a word isn`t it)

    Well du'h, of course it's better than the Wii.

    Think about it. A technology that comes 4 year after the original Wiimote. It would be pretty stupid if it's worse...

    No, even though Sony is doing a good job, he's still ripping off. It's not like they would've made this if Wii didn't exist.

    I didn't notice a real difference. Fan boys getting excited for nothing in my book.

    Yeah, my opinion too. Seems like a bunch of Sany fanboys who get an oppurtunity to think Sony is better than Nintendo, and therefore shout just that.

    But yea, it'd be pretty stupid if it was worse than the Wiimote, this coming a few years later and stuff. It's still a rip-off, just like how almost everything on a PS (and Xbox, save Kinect) controller is ripped off from Nintendo. (Who, on their turn, ripped off most of their shit too)

    Too me, it looks to much like a Wiimote to take it seriously, I just see this as a very weak-ass step on Sony's part. And besides, the Wiimote works perfectly fine with the Wiimotion+, also for finer pointing skills and such, as I've read before lots of people don't know about, saying it's not accurate enough.

    Same here. Big fucking deal, I get the same shit from 4 years ago with better graphics. I need something more enticing if this is supposed to be the IT factor of this holiday season.

    I've actually seen the Move being used, and even used it in one of those PS3 trailers. It's exactly like the Wii, the only difference is the ability to point off-screen. I'm not really seeing anything spectacularly different from the Wii once I've actually tried it for myself.

    I'm wondering if there's a potential lawsuit coming soon due to the light in that ping pong ball at the end, since some games will make it cycle rapidly through various colours sometimes when a player wins in a game or something. Especially players who have issues with epileptic seizures.

    Phallic? If you or anyone you know has a penis that looks anything like this, please, report it to a doctor immediately.

    'Oh, look, a ball on the end of a cylinder.'
    -'It's totally a penis!'
    '... Or a ball on a stick...'
    -'Nah, it totally looks like a penis /giggle'

    Time to grow up, child.

    Wouldn't that be... "a stick on a ball"?

    'An adult with a differing view that feels I must be childish for saying a cylinder with a ball on the top resembles a penis? He MUST be a troll, 'cause everyone really sees things my way and I am right and they know it.'
