Q: Why did SONY (makers of the DS3) design and release the NAV?

A: Because using the DS3 as a NAV is uncomfortable.

If Sony them selves think so then so will the vast majority.

If you want MOVE just buy a NAV and do it properly.

So this "free" alternative is complete junk and should be totally disregarded despite actually working?

I'm gonna get a Navigation Controller, just because it's better, but I could actually play with the DS3.

Every PS3 owner has a DS3/sixaxis...

So why, if this works well, did sony create the NAV?

You are right to get the NAV.. If I get MOVE I will get a NAV.. not doing so is cheap and silly.

I said "free", because it's only free so long as you have enough controllers.

I'll just repeat what I said in the other thread: "...but using the DS3 isn't bad enough to make me buy a Nav controller if I have just one Move game that uses it, for example. If I'm short on money, I still don't have to buy a Nav controller, because the DS3 will do well enough."

Sony created the Nav controller because playing with the Dualshock wasn't optimal. But it still works well enough to be a viable alternative when you take price into account.

If I get a game that uses the Move Nav combo and supports local multiplayer, I'm not getting a second Nav controller. I'll just use a DS3 if the need arises.
