Playstation Move

Re: Playstation Move

I was thinking maybe this happened, but does that mean the reticle stayed centered or at least moved toward the end of the screen? Because if it stays centered, you turning means that your gun is no longer pointed to the center (where the reticle is), so aiming would feel... kind of strange. Plus, it's based on your Eye, not the TV. So unless there's calibration to ensure that you're aiming exactly to that point on the screen, the targeting may feel "off" in a way, especially if you want to aim down the sights.

I don't know if I worded that properly, but I could make a visual demonstration if what I said didn't make sense.

Based on the videos I saw of MAG, it looked as if the reticule moved and the view moved slightly as you moved but increased speed the closer you got to the side of the screen, it seemed pretty natural. As far as accuracy, I have no idea, a simple point the controller at a spot and hit a button to continue would calibrate it to a point. Accuracy, or lack thereof, was one of the things I hated most about the Wii, speaking as someone who does his fair share of amateur marksman shooting it was annoyingly unnatural every time I had to point the Wiimote at the screen.

Re: Playstation Move

I've got a few questions about the Move, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
1. Is it worth 100 dollars right now, or should I wait and see what Kinect brings to the table?
2. What are a few of the games that currently support the move?
3. Does the Move work well with these games?
4. Would I need to buy a second controller?
5. Most importantly to me, how well does the controller work with Tiger Woods? This is the main reason why I want to get it.

Thanks for any input.

1.The move isn't 100, the bundle is. You can find a used camera for around 25 and the controllers are 50. The bundle comes with the sport champions game, so if you want the game it saves you money.

2. Mag, Resident evil gold edition, heavy rain, Tiger Woods, along with the games that came out just for the move.

3. Yes, amazingly accurate

4. two controllers are going to be required for games like The fight which drop on the 27th. but most games now you can use one move controller, some games are going to require the nav controller in the future.

5. Tiger Woods is awesome with the move, IMO the best game on the move right now. You only need the one motion controller with the move. The nav controller is easier to use than the regular controller but its not a requirement.

Re: Playstation Move

So I seen my 1st Move commercial this morning, well actually it was an infomercial at 4am. Showed all the different games that can be played with it. They really need to show this during the day time through out the day.

Re: Playstation Move

Oh yeah that machine gun is freaking awesome looking, I want to play Medal of Honor with it.

Re: Playstation Move

Okay yes, that MAG video looks just fine then. As long as you can calibrate your screen to move exactly as you do (and then turns when you go as far as off-screen), then it seems worthy.

What I was afraid of was the reticle staying in the center of the screen. Say you turned your gun right to move right... then how do you "stop" moving or recenter? If you have to stop turning to recenter, now you're facing off-screen. See the issue there? That's pretty iffy. I'm glad it's not like that.

Looks like a big TV is best for this thing.

Oh, and one other thing that would kind of be cool is if when you use this, the gun on screen is gun. It's kind of like the same thing with having a wheel controller but also seeing your wheel in the car view... sort of redundant, no? I'm sure it's fine, but it would be a cool option.


EDIT: Okay, one more question (because this sort of falls into the "recenter" issue I was talking about before). How does recoil work? Like, will your machine gun itself recoil, or will you only recoil on-screen (that is, the reticle will fly upward)? If it's the latter, how do you correct recoil? Obviously by aiming down, right? But now your gun is pointed somewhere below the TV just to adjust for the recoil while you're firing. Hmm, I wonder how that works.

Re: Playstation Move

Dang Blzr, I think you're overthinking it man...as for me I'm really considering picking up the Move so I can use it with Tiger Woods and Heavy Rain.

I was also really wanting a great bowling game but the 2 that support the Move have gotten very bad reviews. For anyone that has the Move, can you attest to just how bad the bowling games really are???

Re: Playstation Move

I have brunswick and love it. I am an avid bowler, bowl at least once a week. I am completely satisfied with it. Tiger Woods is phenomenal on the move, if nba 2k11 wasn't so addictive, I would play it more.

How is Brunswick since the reviews have been bad? I have Move, but there isn't anything of interest out right now to enjoy this with.

Haha well there's overthinking it and there's wondering how it's done. I mean think about what I said for a second... either there is a strange recoil calibration system put in place, your gun itself recoils, or there isn't any recoil. Only the second option sounds feasibly interesting. The other two sound broken.

I'm addicted to bowling so I may be a bad person to ask, but it is very well done especially as a Move launch title in my opinion. I like how you can select which ball to throw and how they all react differently to the oil pattern of the lane.

Re: Playstation Move

I got a chance to play it while I will say it is really just a gimmick right now, it is pretty fun to play with. The response is very, very good but the (bundled) games I played I could see becoming very old and boring rather quickly.

Re: Playstation Move

If we ever get a baseball game where it uses FULL motion for batting (High pitch=must swing high to hit) Id be all over it.
MLB The Show+MOVE FULL Motion+RTTS MODE= MUST OWN for Me...

Id also love it incorporated into a football game for passing. Just so we'd have a different way of passing....
