Playstation Move

is anyone buying this? I have a $50 giftcard to gamestop, so i might get it. i don't know yet.

a few (VERY few) Gamestops are doing a midnight release, for those of you who care. you can check here: http://www.gamestop.com/gs/landing/events/movemidnight/

I'll more than likely wait until the games I'm interested in are released.

i was thinking about that too. I know a few games will be patching for Move support soon (Tiger 11, MAG, Heavy Rain...and more)

What's up with Time Crisis? Is move required?

I thought you could use ye olde Gun Con 3 with it.

Last I heard, you can play with Guncon or Move.

Hope that I can use the PS3 wand controller for the new Time Crisis and other rail shooter games too.

Seconded! Although, I never did play Heavy Rain and I'd like to give it a shot with the new Move support.

i just got the controller with my $50 gamestop GC. I haven't opened it yet. Not completely sure if i will yet. haha.

I'll wait until the price comes down or until I can find it used. I just want to use Move with Time Crisis anyway and plan to get the regular versions of Heavy Rain, RE5 Gold etc. at a low price when everyone will be after the Move versions.

Looks about as successful as the N-Gage midnight release.

For the record, I'm getting this for RE 5 Gold edition after work.

Who would get Playstation Move for a midnight release? I can't imagine anyone's that excited about it.

I'm also interested in the Time Crisis pack, but I'm not spending $100+ for a move.

I don't think there's going to be "new" versions per say, but just patches added to the existing games to give them Move support, a la Heavy Rain.

gamestop only announced the midnight release at about 5-6pm (EST), so i imagined that the turnout would be shitty.

anyway, i can't wait until MLB 11 the show incorporates this (hopefully). I like playing with a regular controller, but having the option to sometimes play with the Move would be cool. Sports games will probably be the best for this.

If it flops, then i'll have a piece of gaming history.

I picked up two wands and the other controller (whatever it's called) and a few games today, had some credit so I figured why not. There's also a bunch of stuff coming out in the fairly near future that's compatible with it.

Will post some impressions in a bit.

Picked up two wands (one in the pack with Sports Challenge and the PS Eyetoy).

The Time Crisis demo included is pretty darn cool. Need to pick up the nunchuks still.

Too lazy to play the Sports Challenge game right now

I am... currently charging my stuff up. Comes out of the box with no charge, of course, luckily I picked up a charge station (charges any two controllers at a time, so I have two on there and one on the system).

Used one wand to navigate through the XBar, though, for a bit first, sensitive as hell.

How much are the wands alone? I already have the camera.

I got word the midnight release bombed. Hell, I didn't even know it was coming out today until a friend texted me!

I played it a few hours ago and I wasn't too keen on it. I was like "I got a Wii, i've no need or desire for it. :/"

$50 apiece, I was in the same boat, so I picked stuff up ala carte. The bundle is a pretty good way to go, otherwise, but it's not worth getting if you don't need the camera.

Just got done with trying out Archery, Table Tennis, and Gladiator Duel in Sports Champions and some Kung Fu Rider. The precision in all three of the games on Sports Champions is really impressive- Archery is pretty much dead-on to your actual movements (amazing how fast your arms get tired mocking holding up a bow with both hands, pulling an arrow out of a quiver, put the shot together, then draw the arrow back, aim, everything); Table Tennis is pretty much perfect in its recreation of your angle of the shot and the spin it puts on the ball, really fun to shape shots and watch the ball react just like it does in real life; and Gladiator Duel is nearly 1:1 in what you do with your "sword" and "shield."

Then Kung Fu Rider is, um, quirky. Arcade fun, I guess, but the motion controls aren't too sharp. They feel like it's just recognizing a motion input, period, and translating that, not the extent of the motion and the unique characteristics of it, like in Sports Champions. It's hard as hell, partially due to the bad controls, partially due to bad level design.

Also got Eyepet, haven't tried that yet, since I've been up since 4 this morning, I'm too tired to play anything else.

The stuff on Sports Champions works far better than anything on the Wii. Had to mention that.

ohhh glad I read this thread, if time crisis razing storm supports the guncon 3 I wanna go hunt one down. Still have no interest in the move though. It looks like it works well for what it is but it doesn't look that much fun to me.

maybe if they ported sin and punishment 2... that's the only wii game that looks awesome to me. Would save me buying a whole console for like 3 interesting games.

Razing Storm definitely supports the GunCon3. Even the demo I tried had teh option for GunCon, regular controller, Move or combinations of them for players 1 & 2.
