Forums - Gaming - Playstation Move Vs. Xbox 360 Kinect: Metacritic

This should be interesting to see how it all ends up panning out.  If nothing else, this will show how well the MEDIA responds to games made for each motion controller.

 

If you do not like the criteria that has been chosen for the comparison, make your own list maybe?  As long as the criteria is followed equally on both sides, I fail to see any problem.

So many butthurt Sony fans in this thread. The criteria for which games make the list make perfect sense to me. Why would we include RE5 in the list when the scores for that game are based off non-Move controls? It would be stupid.

Because it's the  exact same game, nothing is different except you use the Move instead of the regular controller. How about from now on we never compare multi-plat games ever again because they use different controllers depending on the system. And yes I know each game is reviewed separately but they are reviewing the game (!!!) not the controller; how often do you read a review that states you should play this version because it has Dualshock support?

But at the same time I can see why Seece doesn't want to include them and that's his choice cuz it's his thread so whatever. We all know how this is gonna turn out anyway - Kinect games are gonna get thrashed when the reviews come out and so are most of the Move games but it's obvious that Move will have many higher rated games considering it is most likely going to be the most looked upon play style for devs from now on.

You're talking about a personal preference over differing control schemes.  With games that support both control inputs they will naturally be compared against each other, and introducing a completely different method will have cases where it's not as efficient and the gameplay is affected in a negative way. 

Like it has been mentioned earlier, there has been one review for Heavy Rain Move.  The reviewer stipulates that the motion controls were a failure to him personally (not taking his word as gospel), but that is one review that wouldn't rate the game the same should it solely support Move.

Under Siege is a RTS with move support from day one...

Ain't R.U.S.E. got move support from day one also?

Wasn't High Velocity Bowling released in 2007? - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Velocity_Bowling



You should add a section for reviews of the hardware itself.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

In case you missed it; look up check out your webpage address, now look down, where are you? Your on VGChartz reading a thread based on review scores. Now read the OP, back to me, have you made sense of the first post? It's a chart of all games supporting PS Move and Kinect with motion controlled gaming as the core experience. I'm in chair.


:| You're putting me out of work... Let's see...

Look up, read the subject line, now look down, where are you? You're on VGChartz reading a thread based on review  scores. Now read the OP, back to me. Have you made sense of the first post? It's a chart of all games supporting PS Move and Kinect with motion controlled gaming as the core experience. Or is it? Yes it is. Back to me. You're rabidly typing in angst of unfair comparisons. Breathe in, now back to me. No. You're breathing out deeply realizing your misplaced cynicism. Look down, stop typing. Think. Now you are ready to go enjoy life.

Here I'm going to track the meta scores for all the games that release for the PS Move and X360 Kinect to see which motion controller has the best line up in terms of sole motion sensor games by the end of 2010, I will probably extend this into 2011 however ...

Current games such as Heavy Rain and RE5 will not be added, this is specifically motion controller games only.
