Sony motion controller named

Comments: (0)

Sony's new motion controller has finally been named and went through a presentation in San Francisco, it is now being called the "Playstation Move." Sounds cool, but it looks like it went through dome major remodeling because it looks like they created an almost brand new controller. MTV Multiplayer and Gizmundo both said that the controller is easier to hold and fun to play with but it is almost like a replica of the Nintendo Wii, it is not a new experience. Well, they were right because Sony also showed a "sub-controller" which was in my mind similar to that of the Wii's nunchuck controller.

So is it good?

Well I would say that Sony does seem like they did put alot of work into it and it is similar to that of the Wii, MTV Multiplayer also mentioned that it would be a tight competition because the Wii has unveiled the Motion plus controller which is supposed to mimic the exact movements of the user which I thought was funny because it was supposed to do that in the first place. Now an important question, what is the price of this thing? Well Sony has said that the price of the camera and the Move joystick will be less than $100. Xbox 360's Projct Natal camera is also said to be around $60.

If you look at the Playstation Move, you can see a round bulb-like figure almost like a microphone, people have asked what it is and the answer is that this is where the camera will detect the motion when you move the controller. That's all from Sony and the Playstation Move, stay tuned.

So far, the Wii has dominated the competition between the Xbox 360 and the PS3, only problem? The Wii is lacking games! Wii has only a few games that are actually fun, sure u can play em for a good 2-3 weeks but they just get boring after that. Well Sony and Microsoft have seem to copy Nintendo's success with the Wii and have come up with motion sensor controllers of their own.

Currently, it doesn't have a name that I know of, but the motion sensor technology seems amazing flawless. The only problem I had with this was the graphics, it might have just been the demo, but I still would've liked to see whats capable when im playing with these controllers.

Microsoft's Project Natal motion sensoring technology seems very interesting as well. Instead of using a controller, their motion sensoring camera detects the tiniest movements and lets u play, u are the controller. I was pretty impressed with the sensor camera and how it was able to track movement.

Well you've seen it yourself, now its up to you to decide which will win the war. Both are expected to come out next year and the Xbox 360 camera is worth $60, I still have no confirmation price on the Sony controller. Well see what the critics have to say.
