deanb Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I want to pick one up, I think over Summer. (which means also more games out with support, and more time to play them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted February 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I don't think any game uses two moves besides Sports Champions right now. I'd just get a navi instead and wait on getting a move until more games start using 2, if they ever do. By then you might be able to get a cheaper one or used or something.

toxicitizen Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Yeah, I think The Fight uses two, but that game just looks awful. Â Plus, another 50 bucks is a bit steep after spending 100$ on the whole bundle + 30$ on the Navi, which I think I'll be ordering from Amazon tonight (along with RDR, I think!). Â I was mostly asking for future reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheForgetfulBrain Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 So there's no 4-player Move games yet? Â Hrmm, that seems a little strange to me for some reason. Â Is it capable of 4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 It's capable of 6 if they really want to push it (It'd be Move only though, upto a max of 3 with Navcons) I think most will hover around the 2 spot though, just out of space and H&S issues.

Mister Jack Posted February 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Honestly, the inner fanboy in me is excited about seeing Sly, Ratchet, and Jak interacting together. The Move playability has less to do with why I want to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 It' s capable of 6 if they really want to push it (It'd be Move only though, upto a max of 3 with Navcons) I think most will hover around the 2 spot though, just out of space and H&S issues. Â Well couldn't they do 7 that are move only, and 4 move (where only 3 are navs?) Â Wirelessly the PS3 supports 7 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 But that'd also be a pretty silly amount. Anyway looking it up, the max is 4 Move controllers at once. That's max the system supports, but yes PS3 can do 7 bluetooth devices, so I'm unsure why the Move is limited to 4. Might be them imposing it and not a technical limitiation. Which once again, probably a H&S thing. 7 people waving moves about would take a fair chunk of space and lead to injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Problem is, gaming with multiple Move controllers is pretty damn expensive. Just thinking about a 4-player Move-only game makes me shudder. Â As it is now I'm not even sure if Sports Champions supports multiple players using the same controller like the Wii does.

CorgiShinobi Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 As far as I know, while the PS3 supports seven Bluetooth devices, some items reserve a specific slot. For example, I've got the Blu-ray remote for the console and it is register as controller 7. I'm willing to say a Bluetooth headset takes another slot as well.

FredEffinChopin Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 While I'm not anxious to participate in any motion gaming right now with its current offerings, I think the Move is a step in the right direction. It's building on the controller, rather than trying to replace it, and it opens up the possibility for ways to control games that may actually wind up being more efficient than anything before it. It kind of takes the good stuff from both traditional controllers and KB&Mouse setups and turns it into something new. If I had any faith that developers would use it to its potential I might be ready to purchase one, but I don't see that happening, not in this console generation. It seems like too big of a risk, and of the motion controllers currently available Kinect has the biggest buzz (and Wii the biggest user-base), and is most likely to get devs flocking to it. Maybe I'm thinking negatively.... Who knows though, if the library becomes impressive enough I might end up getting one around the holiday season or next year. Sorcery looks promising, and all the good things I'm hearing about using it with Killzone give me some faith that it might be a nice alternative to a DS3 for even traditional games that don't require Move. Sometimes anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Best Buy restocked a few days ago and they have a rack full of Move controllers. It just kills me that I have to get the PlayStation Eye as well with the $40 controller. Nothing beforehand ever convinced me to get that camera. Â Oh, and I've tried holding the DualShock 3 with one hand... insanity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 So do you guys have any Move games that you would recommend? Â I'm not ready to start Dead Space: Extraction yet and I'd like something else to play besides Sports Champions. Something that feels like a good fit for the controller, not just something that requires pointing. Â I tried a few demos but none really stood out as something worth buying (except maybe Tumble. It was fun, but I think it's 15$ and at that price, no thanks). I also looked at the list of Move compatible games on wikipedia, and of the dozen or so that I looked up because they seemed interesting, none seemed to have reviewed particularly well.

Lemmiwinks Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) I've been playing Mag with mine lately with a little success. You really have to play with the settings to get it feeling smooth. Not sure but i'm leaning towards getting one of the plastic gun things for it but am torn on the sharpshooter that comes out when KZ3 comes out, the battle rifle, or if one of these would even help me much. I will still need to be able to use all of the buttons. At the very least a rifle would keep me from respawning looking at the ground/sky and having to reorient myself again, since I tend to point the Move somewhere other than the screen after I die.

toxicitizen Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Haha, yeah I also do that a lot. Â Just gave Killzone 3 another shot and after tweaking the settings a little I had a much greater control of where I was looking in general. Â Plus, I got my Navigation controller today, so that felt a LOT more natural than a one-handed dualshock.

deanb Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 £30 for the starter kit on GAME. I'm debating picking it up. I'd want games with it mind. Unsure on much that I want. But there are games I'll be purchasing with Move compatibility on the side.  Also GAME really need to reorganize their site. I'd kinda hoped for a Move/Kinect only section, but they're just mixed in with everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantelope Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I'd kind of like to try Killzone 3 with move. Seems like the shooting would be more fun. Also, charging $40 for the plastic gun add on is lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Does anyone know the difference between the new starter pack (white) and the original one (blue)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 One costs more, but yeah I noticed there's a new one that came out the other day too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 The £30 one in game looks like the new one. Being game though you can't phone the store to check, and even if you could it would probably be the old one in store and cost £50. I have a stupid voucher for game which I have probably had for a year because I cannot find anything in the shop that isn't offensively expensive. Plus their price match excludes supermarkets and the only other game shop in town is gamestation. Owned by game so they're not cheaper.

deanb Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 The £30 is the "old" one. It's the white packaged one that's new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 It's the new one that's £30 online.  http://www.game.co.uk/Accessories/PlayStation-3/Controllers-and-Accessories/PlayStation-Move-Starter-Pack-2/~r354346/?s=move+2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 It was £50 this morning.  http://www.game.co.u...Pack/~r349709/  the means both are on the cheap. In which case get the new one.  edit: I think it's most likely just a different starter disc. Now it's a year on and new n different games.

TheFlyingGerbil Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I might go in on my lunch break tomorrow, but I didn't see it there today. Still guessing it won't be £30 in store though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
