Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

The only time I needed to use the move was to knock the egg a few times (as well as using the move-enabled apparatus like the blow dryer, etc.) All other times, the camera picked up the wiggling fingers, circling my hand through the air, all that stuff. Although I did have a problem the 2nd time I needed to shampoo our pet.

And it is a little weird sitting so close to the TV. We eventually got used to it, but our preference would be to sit a little bit farther away.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I don't have this game, but FYI: the camera is able to see your hands or wiggling fingers without a controller of any kind in other games designed for the PS Eye. I downloaded one called Creature Feature (I think that's the name), where wiggling your fingers attracts these critters called Blurbs as you guide them through mazes. I downloaded another one called The Trials of Toquol (or something like that), where you guide a ball through mazes using just your hands. There's also some interactive art you can download where the screen reacts in some way to your moving hands. All of these are pretty cheap on the PSN.

Is Tiger Woods 11 enabled with Move yet? If so, anyone play it and what's the feedback?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Yeah, it's patched already. I tried it. It works pretty well. Aiming before your shot is kind of tough and inelegant, but it can be done. For me, the most difficult problem is one inherent in motion control golf : To replicate a golf swing, you need to keep your head down, but to see your swing and strength, you need to be looking at the screen. It takes a while before you get comfortable enough with the controls to swing without watching the screen. I need to try it some more, but I've been playing more Sports Champions the past couple of days.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I couldn't get it to work at all until I moved the move along the top of the screen. I tried for like an hour.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

part of me really wants this... but I already have a Wii. Do I need this?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Well, it's like a Wii. Except that it actually works accurately.
I still don't think it'll be a consistent replacement for most games. The standard controller is probably the best way to control movement and aiming on a console. But for certain games like light gun games, party games and maybe special games like Heavy Rain, it really is pretty cool. I defy anyone to try the archery or gladiator games in Sports Champions using two controllers and not come away impressed. It's very realistic and cool (though, yes, too expensive).

If you found a good deal, I'd recommend it. I think the tech has a lot of potential for non-"casual" gaming. That's something I wouldn't say about a certain rival's upcoming motion control peripheral.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Thanks for the info, Decker.

I was at Best Buy today and they had Move setup to demo, but of course... it wasn't working properly. I'll have to check back later. I believe they had the Sports Champions game to play.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I'm definitely going to pick this up for the kids for Xmas... but one thing miffs me about the motion controller games: why in the world has nobody released a classic Star Wars game where you use lightsabers? Isn't this the definition of motion control?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I thought I read they are releasing one for the MOVE. I think it was on rails or something though.....I forget now.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

They showed a non-playable clip of one at the E3 Kinect Extravaganza With Cirque Du Soleil.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

The problem (from my perspective) with any swordfighting game with motion control is that there is no feedback when you clash swords, so you're going to swing right thru it, throwing everything off. How does the motion controller account for that? How is the Gladiator game in this regard?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

It vibrates strongly upon impact. A different vibration when you strike your opponent than when you hit his shield or clash swords. That's not a problem at all.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Good to know, thanks.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

My copy of RE5 Gold finally shipped from Amazon. Will try it with Move + Nav here in a few days (hopefully it's pre-patched, but I don't know that yet).

Here's a preview article from IGN about Move-enabled co-op gameplay in LBP2. Not exactly what I was expecting, but sounds potentially pretty cool :

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I tried the Move at Best Buy the other day. It's way more responsive than the Wiimote, that's for sure. It seemed fun, but not really my thing.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Almost bought the Eyepet bundle at TRUS, but couldn't make my mind. :(

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I have Sports Champions and Eyepet, I really think you would enjoy the SC bundle better. Eyepet is OK, especially if you have young kids, but the controls are a lot less sensitive. Sometimes, it's very hard to get your pet to do what you're trying to make it do, and it can get pretty frustrating.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Can the eyepet be disciplined?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Do you mean, can you hit it and knock it over? Yes. In fact, you're required to do so early on.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

There's even a trophy for scaring it awake and putting it back to sleep within 40 seconds. One of the stranger trophies I've ever seen. I actually felt bad doing it, because your pet really freaks out if you startle them awake.

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

Got the Eyepet bundle. My daughters (4 and 10 years old) are loving it.

Are there any games for adults? I know about Heavy Rain, besides that, I checked the ones available at Toys R Us and most of them seem to be Wii clones. LBP2 is going to include Move support, right?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

I still can't get the eyepet to respond regularly to finger waving, even with the wand in my hands. How much light do you guys have in your living room? It's still the only Move game I have (besides Heavy Rain which I haven't popped in since the update), but at this rate I'm not going to be getting many more.

How's the RE5 functionality?

Re: Playstation Move Thread
 

LBP2 will include Move support. The Fight is adult. The Shoot is adult/child.

And then the SOCOM I think will have support. I believe MAG has Move support now.
