PlayStation Move Review

To answer the first question: Yes. PlayStation Move absolutely does work. Sports Champions is lag-free and movement is 1:1 99 per cent of the time - sometimes eerily so.
Take 'Disc Golf' (golf with a Frisbee) for example. Using the Move's trigger to pick up the disc, the camera zooms into a first person perspective, leaving a white hand representing your own. We stood for a while tilting the Frisbee in every direction, attempting to spot even the most minuscule limitation, misrepresentation or lack of synchronisation.

There wasn't any. The little white hand even trembled slightly at 1am when we were trying to throw the perfect "drive" while wired on coffee.

The Move also recognises when you've changed your stance to execute a forehand flick from the side, rather than a backhander across the chest. The variety of shots available is crucial for curling the disc around obstacles - which you can do by tilting your throw (just like real life). You'll also slam it into the dirt more times than you'd like (just like real life).
// Overview
Verdict
Sony's motion control gets beyond being a gimmick. We found ourselves constantly itching for "one more go".
Uppers
  Great to hold, look at
  PS Eye rarely loses sight
  1:1 control and responsiveness
  Motion control with high-end production
Downers
  Power recognition plays a limited part
  High-speed action sometimes (rarely) confuses it


I AM BOLO

100% lover "nothing else matter's" after that...

Proud psOne/2/3/p owner.  I survived Aplcalyps3 and all I got was this lousy Signature.
