Forums - Sony Discussion - PS mote so far: Maybe not as perfect as sony claims it is

HANDS ON PRESENTATIONS are now being leaked onto the internet through GDC, and some claim the precision isn't as accurate as the WII 

 

http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/playstation-move-first-hands-on/

 

 

-We hate to say this about "pre-alpha" software, but we're feeling lag. An on-rails shooter we tried out, dubbed The Shoot, was discernibly inferior to shooting experiences we've had on the Wii, both in precision and refresh rate of the aiming cursor.

 

-The gladiator game is about as fun as it looks, we'll have video after the break momentarily. Unfortunately, while it's less of a defined experience than something like the sword game on Wii Sports Resort, you're still working through a library of sensed, pre-defined actions instead of a true 1:1 fighting game with simulated physics. Not that it isn't possible with PlayStation Move, just that it's not this.

-The system seemed to have a bit of trouble understanding the configuration of our body in a swordfighting stance: even though we selected "left handed," it was putting our sword arm forward instead of our shield. Right-handers didn't seem to have similar problems, and we're sure this will be ironed out in time, but it certainly shows that the controllers aren't magical in their space-detection prowess.

 

Despite it being PRE ALPHA, so far it may actually be a little dissapointing in MY eyes, but we have yet to get more hands on previews, so its still a wait and see game, can sony truely pull of 1:1 control?

well thats not good news



Obviously, do you think Sony will say "Yeah, it's still iffy and doesn't work as well as we'd like it"?

That's terrible news... the only selling point of Move to me is it's precision.
But I don't know if I believe that, because even on e3 last year this thing was precise as hell.



don't believe everything you read or your told, The PS move is everything Sony says it is, I know dev, working with this device, and its superb, and delivers everything Sony Says. Don't listen to the Haters

Was Sony over hyping this? Time will tell...


Then again its only Pre Alpha and Natal was said to have some lag, both should be up to date now.

Any release date yet?



Seeing as how its pre-alpha and doesn't come out for at least more than 6 months, I'd give it time before they get all the bugs out.



Can I buy it tomorrow?

Is it the controller itself, or the game?

Because from what we have seen... It's looked pretty damn accurate.



                            

Ive seen a lot of precision in the hands on previews Ive seen (Most notably of SOCOM 4), so I guess we will have to wait and see.
