What ever happened to the Playstation Move? Is it already dead?

I don't hear anyone talking about this at all. Not even making fun of it. What gives? What happend to it? Where that sorcery game show a while back?

PS3 owners have more to talk about than a motion control perpheral. It's unfortunate all console owners can't say the same thing.

It was never alive and never needed.

Move was never good, it was just a sad copy of the Wii. And its not popular enough for people to think to make fun of it. simomate

From my experience, Move is incredibly more responsive than the wii remote.

It does appear to be dead, or at least nearly dead (probably lying down in it's grave waiting to die).

Sony will continue to support it though to please the fans who have already purchased Move controllers, but I don't see the sales of that thing ever increasing with Sony's strategy of just tacking Move controls onto games which already work with the included-controller found in ever PS3 box.

they only cared about Move if the game had good graphics, so they will just ignore good Move games

A carbon copy of the Wii when no one wants to buy the Wii anymore.........I swear Sony is run by total morons.

It's not really supported much. About as much as Nintendo's Wii Motion Plus, I just don't know which I find more pathetic.

And Red Steel 2, about 2 big games for a controller that should have been the main priority since release. Yeah, I'm impressed.

I was giving a silly answer to a silly question. I am curious as to what you are referring to with the bolded.

More seriously, most people don't talk about Move games because the best Move games are compatible with Move, but they don't require it. For instance, I hear that the Move controls in KZ3 are really well done, and it's a very fun way to play the game, but no one needs Move to play it.

That's how I like it, because I don't want to buy one.

it sold well, has a bunch of games that support it, and more coming. Not great but decent. I don't see how kinect is any better or worse just from a support standpoint. I do think that move is a much better productGunSmith1_basic

[QUOTE="dRuGGeRnaUt"] People on these boards need to learn proper english: "none of the nerds on SW care about Kinect... But most of the rest of the people do". - Fastest selling electronic in history says different. - not for people on these boards, but for many, the kinect has been fun. I speak of kinect only because I am yet to actually use the PS move.ForzaGearsFace

Nothing seems more fanboyish than caring about how much a crappy perihperal sells.

Move is awesome for console FPS. The most recent game that has move support is Resistance 3.

[QUOTE="ForzaGearsFace"][QUOTE="ianuilliam"]Fastest selling electronic in its first 60 days. After that, it slowed down. A lot. 8 million at 2 months. But only 10 million 7 or 8 months later. I wonder if it's still the "fastest selling electronic device in history" if you compare first year sales, and not just first 2 months? Seems like the title was given a bit prematurely, IMO.

Sorry I'll rephrase "Only kids care about kinect"

It was never really Sony's intention to milk out and bank on, like MS has done with Kinect.

Sony and the PS platforms has ALWAYS remain exclusive to the typical Core gaming community and gaming casuals who have evolved into gamers, not the same casuals that bought the Wii.

[QUOTE="Pug-Nasty"]

[QUOTE="ForzaGearsFace"] It came out in holiday 2010 so Yeah 60 days is about right and sales have cooled down, but if you don't think it's going to sell a ton in the next two months you are going to look foolish, I'm thinking at the end of 2011 Microsoft will release its kinect numbers and it will be around 15 million, if you don't think that is impressive you are being a straight up fanboy, oh wait.ForzaGearsFace

I already answered. It's up there ^ somewhere.

Move has been supported by most major Sony shooters that have come out since it's announcement. Some have even had Move support patched in like MAG.

At least with Move, Sony hasn't shoved casual games down our throat; they've supported core games with an additional control options.

Just to see if casuals can lap it up like they did with Wii Motion Sensing. At the end, Sony realized the core gamers are too valuable for its survival.

It sold Well but the thing is it's not Sony main focus unlike MS and Kinect, it's more of an option. Sony has been adding Move support in almost all the big exclusive with Infamous 2 just getting move support last week. So it just an extra option if you want it it's there, if you dont then forgot about it.

[QUOTE="ForzaGearsFace"] So why release it?ForzaGearsFace

I actually saw a commercial advertising Move recently and it only reminded me that Move existed.

and once again Sony failed this gen.They failed hard in the consoels market,in the handheld market(PSP GO) and in the motion controllers battle.If it goes on like this the Vita wont surive for long.I have the feeling that Vita will be Sonys last handheld,as Sony simply doesnt understand the handheld market and doesnt have the big games and names to match Nintendos dominance.PS4 will come out but there is no guarantee for a PS5.I could really imagine SCE going third party like Sega and bringing games like Uncharted,Littlebigplanet,Gran Turismo and Killzone to WII U.Hopefully Nintendo will buy Naughty Dog if Sony continues going down.

Yeah, you've got to be able to translate on this board.

All the blockbusters [on Xbox 360] are multiplat. U3 can be countered with Gears 3 [if we only count one game out of many].

Whatever happened to the Move specific games like Sorcery or something? I rarely hear about Move nowadays. Stevo_the_gamer

Alot of it has to do with mental perception of the console. 360 came out first, 360 is an efficient console where developers find it easy to create games for, therefore, the mental perception of 360 owners is "lets get this game for 360 because it looks better!" And XBL Gold has absolutely no bearings to it. If it were, ALL 360 owners on the planet would become GOLD members.

But the PS3 is still a viable console for the core games. They do sell, more so than Move games. That's why 3rd party developers are still creating games for PS3.
