Forums - Sony - So I tried Move today at Sony Style...

             I was out getting my cousin a Forever 21 giftcard for her birthday at the local mall. After embarrasing myself I stopped by Sony Style and tried out the Gladiator Game on Sports Champions with both Moves (because people were telling me it was the best in the bunch). I had to go through calibration first, which invoved mimicing the guy on screen while pressing the move button then I got the play. I had trouble during the begging because the game is REALLY gesture controlled and for things like strikes I needed to hook , undercut, swing up, block with my left hand(waggling didn't cut it). When I got into the special move thing I had to hit X and follow the slashes on screen, which was pretty hit or miss,  had trouble but won 2 matches.

            The Move felt like a good controller and the trigger was better than the DS3. The buttons on the the move were a problem though. They were VERY small like DS buttons and were hard to hit during the combat. Overall I think that the games need some sort of assistance, because I found the keeping up the gestures difficult. I was dissipointed with the buttons but I tried to enjoy it. Hopefully they'll make the gestures a little bit easier to replicate. After that I went to Chick-Fil-A and home. At home much to my dismay my brother won the Subway contest again and got LBP. With that 50$ card also I still would need 50$ more for the bundle. Anyways, Move definatly is aimed at the teen and up crowd. I saw some teens hanging out playing the game somewhere else with 1 controller each in a battle. I'd think a child would have problems trying to do the gestures. I think they're demoing nationwide, go try it out.

I would have been swinging it like a madman then. You need to do the full motion lol. I didn't want to look like a try hard casual who couldn't hit a ball, the kid who did the game in front of me did better.

I have been very interested in move (kinect too I like motion controls) and depending on how good it is I might get a ps3 to replace my wii(just not as accurate as I would like and so far I haven't liked a whole lot of the games) So i am glad to read hands on about it. Have you used a wii(with motion plus) and if so how does it stack up to that?

Some people are really good at the table tennis game, but it is still really fun playing it due to the realism even if you are not much good, you can learn so much from it

Not with motion plus, but Move seemed more difficult than the normal wiimote because you need to do the whole movement. You can't just stop halfway or drop off.
