I have a PS3, an EyeToy, kids and disposable income.  I figure I might as well give it a go.

I just can't decide whether to just get the main controller and see how it plays using a dualshock or whether to go the whole hog and get a controller and a sub-controller (off topic am I alone in being amazed at how boringly pedantic the name for the sub-controller is?).

You can try just holding the DS3 like you would when you play it with the Move and see if it's comfortable. I suggest resting it on your knee, it's actually a decent solution (still inferior to the NavCon, but very much usable none the less).

Yah, I've tried that and it works well.  I'm pretty sold on the idea that using a Move with a dualshock is viable.  However, I can also afford to get the sub-controller anyway so I've more or less decided I might as well as based on playing with Wii I do think it will be just that bit more comfortable than the dualshock.

Once I get Move (and the sub) I'll definately post some comments on it plus how the sub compares to using a Dualshock, for those who might be interested in whether it's really worth getting one.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Awesome, I think I'm going to start with the Move only and see when/if I'll need the NavCon. If I can wait a while, the price may drop, or a good offer may come up or whatever, and I can have more money to spend on games.

I'll get Move IF there is a Heavy Rain bundle or a LBP2 bundle.

because it's already as essential as a standard controller



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’

umm that's at the gamecom 2010 event and he is playing the game using the move

I know that. But how am I supposed to judge if there's any lag if I'm not shown his hand motions dummy.

just look at the undersiege video's i posted, the game play control scheme of painting in the troop's is pretty evident it works because in the demo you could see Anton use that very same function..and sofar every rts that's being released for the move control's on the PS3 has been that responsive.

the reason being because it work's

are you just looking for a reason to doubt it's ability ?

No no, no fanboy reasons to doubt (well maybe just a little bit).

Seriously I need to see the hand movement to judge how much the lag is between movement of Move (input) and effect on screen.

I know that you can demo a game and make it look very lag-free and smooth despite a lag of even 400 ms if you are very familiar with the game. I've done it myself on Age of Empires II online back in the day.

 

here is your answer:

You’ll notice that Anton was comfortably sitting on a couch when using the PlayStation Move controllers and the PlayStation Eye never reacted negatively to its reflection from our wall of monitors. These aren’t gesture triggering animations, folks, but true 1:1 gameplay.


Whoa so wait, could Sony implement a "MOVE ROOM" And we can have multiple video feeds for a group video conference? If so, thats pretty damn awesome.

I have a Wii, so I know motion controls, and the Move seems to have interesting games and stuff, be interesting for me to see how it compares to the Wii

Another R.U.S.E. demo with Move.

very nice


From the look of that demo I'd say they gimped the DS3 only controls so much that Move is essential if you want to enjoy this game. I'm liking the look of it for Move.

it's not that they gimped it, it's just the game pad is not best suited to operate a RTS anyone who's play RTS on game consoles know how that feels. the KEY To this in my opinion is How the control feel's when you move from one end of the board to the other with a standard game pad compared to when you move the MOVE from one end of the board to the other part of the board in an RTS feel's like you do when you USE a PC mouse in control's of an RTS on the PC. the point being is by people who have played it sofar has stated the feeling with the Move is like the feeling they have with the PC in their control's for RTS games. something which Gameconsole's have suffered along the way since the use of the game pad to control RTS games they just feel clunky.
