    I know, but for whatever reason I thought I remembered it being so damn expensive, something like $150, that I would never consider buying it. $80 is still too much for me (I would probably settle for $45), but I'm not that interested in the concept anyway, which is why I passed up on the Wii in the first place.

    I'm just trying to find out how that link is a deal when the sum of the two products is $80 anyway.

      Yeah, someone might have thought the price was higher on this thing which is possible since stupid Sony hasn't really marketed this at all. I don't even think I have seen a single commercial except for videos on the computer.

      I've had the camera since I bought Burnout, so yesterday I picked up the Move controller.......waiting on the Nav till it is needed. I will say that I was left very impressed with the demos I played so far. This thing is so responsive, it puts the Wii to shame. I can now see why the hardware has been getting such excellent reviews. The controller is built very solid and my hand didn't get tired holding the darn thing like it has for many......but I also didn't go on a marathon session either.

      I do not get why they only have 2 of the games open for Sports Champions demo.........kind of stupid if you ask me. Table Tennis is crazy as to how accurate movements are caring that 1:1 full motion. I tried Tumble and didn't really care for it too much. I was not able to get EyePet working since I'm afraid there isn't much room available, even though there is 6.5 feet between the TV and couch which everything else worked fine.

      If you own a PS3 and a Wii, I can see people that are into motion controls dumping the Wii and sticking with Move since it just works much better.

        The only reason I haven't dumped the Wii yet is there are still some great Nintendo exclusives coming. Once Socom and Killzone come out though, that may be when I switch.

          Re: Playstation Move

          I'm actually enjoying the move. I bought the sports champions bundle and downloaded high velocity bowling. The movements are very accurate and fun to play. I have found myself only playing for about an hour and then I get bored and start playing other games. I bought this knowing it wouldn't change my gaming habits at all. This is more of a novelty item for parties, nephews and family over, etc. Still fun though!

            Re: Playstation Move

            The MAG beta which is going on for the upcoming patch has move support. I heard a person say he was trying it out for the first time. He said it takes some practice to get used to it not as easy as you would think. Tiger Woods 11 had a patch already put out for move support as well. One question I have is do you need 2 move controllers for some games like archery in Sports champions or can you just use one? Thanks.

              You can use a Move controller and a Navigation controller, but the controls aren't as responsive as if you were using two Move controllers. Games like The Fight will also use two Move controllers. Honestly, single player wise, you should own two Move controllers and a Nav controller to really take full advantage of everything.

                  When done correctly, a FPS control scheme is much better than what you'll get with a controller.

                    I don't doubt that(I have never played a FPS using a controller similar) but I didn't like the Wii controller on games that used its motion controller sensitivity.

                      I have no doubt that some games could do awesome things with Move, but as of now they really have no games for us "hardcore" gamers...everything's for casual people. I have a Wii collecting dust for my casual gaming desires lol.

                        I was thinking that they should have a bundle just like that. For guys like me who have the camera, but nothing else. I am so glad that I got the camera about a year ago. I paid a grand total of $5.00 for it at K-Mart. I think it was a mistake on their part, since they probably didn't move a single camera off their shelf since release.

                          I have the move and I can see its potential. With Killzone and Socom dropping soon, I think it will gain alot of momentum.

                            I agree if they expect this thing to really take off, they need to start running commercials 24/7 for it. I don't ever see this taking over the wii motion sensing market though. Most people I know who own the Wii are casual group players. They only play party games and Wii Fit, there is no way in their mind would they drop $300 for a PS3 and additional money on a Move. They are not into gaming like that to want to own 2 videogame systems.

                              man.....I bought this for my wife so she can have fun gaming...and what do you know, I am hooked on this thing. Ping Pong in sports champions is absolutely awesome. I haven't even tried the other 5 games, but ping pong is just so surprisingly good.

                              3 difficulty levels, I choose the medium level and it is very challenging and fun. The cpu makes mistakes, they smash, and each CPU pcharacter has a different play style. I played it for 2 hours plus straight last night and honestly it's better than any racket sport out there right now including Wii, ps3, or the console games.

                              just great gaming....not only that it's a great workout since the game forces you to move left right back and forward and makes you swing accurately to get more power/ spin....

                              just a great experience....got the move bundle with sports champions for 90 bucks. well worth it.

                                I hear you on this one I am doing the career mode or whatever it is finally made it to gold and all assists are gone. You really have to move side to side and front to back. If the cpu hits a lob shot back it is awesome to step forward and reach into the screen and put some power on it. The camera even brings the table closer to you when you step in. Gold is a bitch trying to keep the ball on the table, there is absolutely no waggling on this game its straight up and play, wrist flicks do not work. The cpu players are hard only 2 players into gold cup and it is hard as hell.
