The PlayStation Move controller may be a flagrant copy of the Wii’s WiiMote, but ping-pong aficionados playing both consoles side-by-side have compared the two and found Sony’s imitation does actually deliver a rather upgraded experience.
“Wii Sports” vs “Sports Champions”:
The “waggle test” – the motion sensing of the Wii is sufficiently crude that in some games little more than the illusion of control is offered, as exemplified by the finding that waggling the Wii’s controller randomly from side to side assures victory thanks to some rather generous assistance from the console itself… the Move controller is however a different story:
All that remains to be seen is how Kinect performs under similar conditions.
XD My my, so much love in here from all the Move-tards and Wii-tards.
Established fact; Sony pulled a shameless poser move that works slightly better than a Wii-mote WITHOUT Motion Plus, while adding a plastic light-bulb to flash and distract you to the end of it.
When the next Nintendo console comes around[Not the 3DS; that’s already breaking records for awesome], it will probably match up to, if not beat, what the Move has done in terms of tech specs. Whether or not they’ll act as shamelessly as Sony did and copy looks on top of everything else is still up for debate, but let’s not put it beyond them.
Then Sony will come around and pull off the same thing.
Then Nintendo will do it.
Back and forth for the entirety of their company’s respective lives.
Honestly, the industry thrives off of people taking ideas away from each other, altering them slightly, then re-marketing them.
I mean, take a look at Call of Duty VS Modern Warfare debates that have been flying around lately for an example.XD
Nothing’s gonna change about how shameless all three companies are going to act in the future, so we all might as well just go with the flow by picking what suits us instead of arguing about it incessantly over the net.
After all, as the saying goes,
“Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics; even if you win, you’re still retarded.”
PROTIPS:
If you move in the same way you did with the PS the Wii will work.

I got a Move and it’s 150x better than my WII. The WII is a kids toy compared to the MOVE. Simple as that. People that post negative comments on the MOVE obviously don’t own one or they’d actually talk some sense. You only have to stand back far enough that you don’t smack your TV. I don’t know what people are bitching about.
It’s not “perfect” but it’s 96% perfect and as close as any hardware is capable of delivering for under $100. The disc with the bundle has enough proof on it to shut up detractors and games next year are going to explode with motion control I’m 100% sure. I got a 360 also so I’m not a fanboi of any system but you can’t deny that the MOVE is going to be impossible to beat. It’s just a fact of reality.
No, it’s a Move fan raving about their love for a Sony-made copy of the Wii Motion Plus with a flashing bulb on the end and toting its over-rated glory as a “fact” when it’s clearly not.
Everything that the Move does, the Wii Motion Plus does just as well.
I own both and haven’t seen a single difference in response quality. Because there isn’t one.
What really matters is the quality of the games used on each respective system.
If you had focused on that area and started pointing out the fact that the Wii needs to dump the shovel-ware being thrown onto it and start focusing more on the quality titles people WANT on the system, you’d have had a fair point.
But you didn’t.
So you don’t.
Try again when you’ve widened your narrow PoV.
You don’t have to be a Sony fan-boy to be a narrow-minded Wii-Hater.
you forgot the other $300 from the ps3 itself
and i have to point out…have you got a wii?
I owe move too, and Im a bit disappointed with move.
Maybe is a novelty for the majority of ps3 users, but playing the disc bundle and the sense of deja vu is horrid, is like go back to 4 years ago but in HD, so I dont feel it like “it changes everything”, feels more like another WAGGLE game. Did you tried wiimotion plus? the sense is almost the same 1:1
WHat you ALL have to realize is that this site has crawled up SONY’s ass soooooooo far that I’m surtprised that they say anything bad about sony at all…. oohh wait they dont LOL. But anyway good luck trying to get sony’s attention while the fact remains that a 8ms delay is far long that a 2ms delay which is what the nintendo wii has.
Sorry to be the person with bad news but BOTH Sony AND Microsoft are still a few years behind nintendo when it comes to actual sensing devices. The move (although great) is basically a copy off of all of the stuff nintendo couldn’t patent then new software was written in to cover up where there were holes. As for play, once you get a move you’ll realize how bad a 2ms response time is when your character not only doesn’t represent you on the screen but moves about .5 seconds slower making it almost impossible to play su7ch games as fighting and FPS’s.
Nobody ever seems to mention how far you have to stand away from your T.V. for the PS Move camera to be able to see your entire swings. Thats a big draw back and every review I watched just glanced over the issue. When I first tried the move at this years TGS that was the first thing i noticed. Just look at the videos posted, theres a reason why the PS move videos always have a second window to show the player.
You only have to stand back far enough that you don’t destroy your TV. I actually own one, unlike yourself I don’t have to rely on trolling videos.
wow….you actually bought that thing?
