I'm wondering is the PSM a whole new system or can you just hook up all the new stuff to your PS3, cause I'll buy it if it's an expansion but not if you gotta buy it as a whole new system.

It's a peripheral that will work with any PS3.

It's an accessory, nothing more. It will prove to be pretty popular but it will never be classed as a new system.

Wait, does that mean that we don't have to get it and we can play games coming out for Playstation Move like LBP 2, Motorstorm Apocalypse, Socom 4, etc. without the Playstation Move?

Interesting question because in my point of view Nintendo Wii is nothing but an expansion for the GameCube with those sensor based controllers. :roll:

But the Move is just an expansion, an option for the type of controller for the PS3. ;)

I guess it depends if the game has full move support or not.

Of course, you can just play those games as standard, Move will only be an extra option for games like that (and many others).

Wow, I underestimated the IQ or PS3 users.
