Forums - Sony Discussion - PLAYSTATION MOVE issue?

Whether it's a copy is pretty much irrelevant to anyone who doesn't think the inventor of the wheel was the only person to make a version of something worth using.

There was a lot of room for improvement with the Wii remote, even after Motion Plus, which still has problems in addition to being an optional controller (meaning most developers aren't even using it anyway).

It still boils down to how well the games use the controls, and how good the games are overall, whether it's on the Wii or the PS3.

Had Sony not have been the leading advocate in how much of a gimmick motion controls are then there would be little to no hate.......they deserve this. 

The Move hate will rightfully be hated on until its release , and when it releases it could either be the Wii-mote improved or just another crappy carbon copy.....but until then the hate will continue.

(Damn I sound like an asshole in this......but there is really no other way for me to show just how stupid it is to question the hate the move is getting)



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

My take on it, if it wasn't for nintendo sony wouldn't have released move, but MOVE is not a copy, since it was in development since will before the wii was even shown in public

And you would prefer the alternative where everyone calls them retarded for sitting on it for 6 years? "No Sony isn't copying Nintendo, they are tards with no vision". You would like that alternative? Personally if it is true then Sony are getting off lightly.

I rather they went the route they did in making games since if not I would be playing retarded games like just dance etcand not Uncharted, GOw3 etc. Glad they stuck it out until they were ready (as a consumer)

ANd also taking your time to impliment something makes you retarded? So I guess Ninty etc were rather 'retarded' to not use a disk base medium while SOny made it common place

Seriously dude, your bitterness towards Sony shows in your every post, honestly don't think I've seen a single post by you without a underhanded witty remarks in the Sony section

ditto

 

i really wouldnt say they sat on the tech, more like acually tried to make it worthwhile instead of a godamn waggle fest.... ur not as smart as you think you are squilliam



I imagine lots of people will enjoy the playstation move. As a refinement and improvement over the technology in the Wii, why wouldn't people like it?

I don't see what that has to do with Sony's shameless copying of Nintendo.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

Nintendo copied technology from Sony....Sony copied the formula of success that Nintendo used with that technology .     Pretty much the same thing, just different sides of the coin.  Both are guilty.  Both will probably end up being successful by doing as much.

And the Wiimote was originally designed to be a Gamecube attachment. So no body knows who came up with the idea first. But the fact is Nintendo released it years before Sony.




8th gen predictions. (made early 2014)
PS4: 60-65m
WiiU: 30-35m
X1: 30-35m
3DS: 80-85m
PSV: 15-20m

I thought it was retarded. It severely disadvantaged the N64 to to the PS1. It made Nintendo lose a lot of great franchises such as Final Fantasy.

 

As for this topic, I think the Move hate still exists because of Sony being hypocritical and constantly calling the Wii a fad in the past and also basing the design of Move and Navigation off the Wii Remote and Nunchuck. I think people want Sony to admit that they wrong before they stop hating. 



Who cares if Sony copied Nintendo, or if Nintendo copied Sony, or if the both copied the president of Zimbabwe?

Neither Sony nor Nintendo came up with the idea of motion controls. Anyone who thinks they did needs a brain transplant.

There is nothing (well... very little) new under the sun. Nothing. Virtual reality gaming, in one form or another, has been around since the 1980s, and any VR worth its salt has motion controls. And if you really want to come down to it, both Sony and Nintendo are copying the US military, or some other country's armed forces. Why aren't there any Go Army fanboys raging about that? Oh wait, that's because NO ONE OTHER THAN RETARDED FANBOYS CARE WHEN COMPANIES COPY EACHOTHER. Ditto what someone else said about Sony using optical discs, then Ninty doing the same later. Sheesh, people. Look past your own nose. It helps.



<insert awesome signature here>

lol this is tripping me out, lol who give a d***. The playstation eye started it all so you could say Sony did it all first, natal is a copy of the eye toy. Let me say again, who gives a d***. I held out on the wii because alot of the games are horrible quailty, i refuse to buy a console with graphics on par with my game cube, and everyone i know who bought one has traded it in or its collecting dust. The playstation move gives me a chance at motion control games in HD and better quality control over the games. So yes i will buy this "copied tech."End topic
