That's why I'm asking for confirmation. These shop are reputable retailers and generally do get info from distributor ahead of time. They've discloved news before the publisher in the past as well so its certainly not without precedent. Furthermore, in this case its not just one site, its actually pretty wide spread.The reason I'm a bit pessimistic about these data is because the game screams motion control with big honkin horns so it could be natural for a few retailers to make a mistake and for everyone else to compound on that mistake by reading the mistaken retailers' data and treating it as fact.

I'm very interested in this game, it is essentially going to be the decider for me on either getting the move or the kinetic later in the year. Don't burn me for being a bit wishful :P


Fair enough, I just tweeted somone from Ubisoft hopefully they give me a response :D

Kinect price was in the retailers so you could be right, though Australia was bargaining the kinect price as soon as it was announced as it didnt want it above 200, which they succesfull did. It is 199 here.  I dunno how it would work with a controller now that I have seen the Kinect video haha. It looks lots of fun. 

HAHA join the green machines motion control :D

I have not been impressed so far by any game from either move or kinetic. I'm a bit old fashion and like my adventure game on a game-pad on my console and my fps / rts on my damn nice pc with a sexy keyboard / mouse setup. I never got into the wii, just didn't enjoy waving my hand around to play games and I'm a weak little bastard that get tired pretty fast.

Cost really isn't a issue for me, but I refuse to buy a system that has no game I'm interested in.

Child of Eden however... hot damn! The first time I saw this at E3 I was freaking drooling in eagerness, this look like an AWESOME game to play while drunk. I have a bottle of vodka already stored up for this shit and I cannot wait to  try it out.

I was leaning towards kinect first, because no hand sounds the most trippy but early report indicated that there will be some lag when using kinetc (I think this is control lag and happens with all kinect games) and then my usual online shop of choice list this down as move compatible. I've been told move is the most accurate of the 3 motion controllers so for a while I was gonna get it for the move.

Then I got told that it wasn't move compatible at all (or at least not confirmed) and got a bit sad, but I reflected that since I was gonna primary play this game drunk or at least a bit tipsy, I really shouldn't give a fuck on the precision of the control so I was happy again.

Finally I found that the same info is also on several other website (move compatible) and became confuse again.

The not knowing is driving me bat shit insane so I've set my position once more to neutral and am waiting for confirmation of compatibility and reviews on the game's performance for kinect (and move if that news prove true).

Ok firstly relax. Jeez.

I've only been tracking the Kinect version, so I assumed that the PS3 version would work with Move. I think that's probably an easy mistake to make, but nevertheless, it seems I am wrong.

''I am glad that people like you dont make the decisions'' 

I think I would be able to make some pretty good decisions if I was working in that industry - most probably much better than you.

My evaluation of Kinect is based on what type of experiences I CAN ENJOY.

Seriously, sometimes I think some people get confused about what the are supposed to be wanting from the games industry.


haha defending my accusation with an accusation... eh whatever. Quite going to 360  threads if you dont like the 360/kinect. Its kinda annoying.

No you are making assumptions into what you think people want. Kinect will lead to virtual reality, which is the guaranteed future. This is not a bad thing imo

The PS3 version of Child of Eden no longer shows up on the Ubisoft store page.

Your logic would be more threatening if you knew what accusation meant.

Am I wrong in saying that it seems Ubisoft seems to favour Xbox 360 as a platform? So CofE going exclusive/timed exclusive doesn't surprise. Of course MS will be keen to get games like CofE strongly associated with Kinect so It's not outside the realms of possibility that MS gave Ubi some additional encouragement to produce for Kinect.

If the game screams motion control and it doesn't come with Move support if/when it releases on PS3 then I think you can kiss decent PS3 sales goodbye, which seems a bit self defeating without some significant Microsoft financial aid.

But you also know Sony. If a game gets a significantly delayed release on PS3 then they insist on having some additonal content that is not available on the 360 version. That being the case it's possible CofE will be fully exclusive.

Time will tell.

dont try arguing with aussiegecko.

he is never well informed, i tried to tell him that forza 4 cannot be played in it entirety with kinect but rather its just an arcade mode, where u get steer assist and cant control the speed, but he would have nothing of it.

he also tried to equivalate ylod with rrod, when i posted sources debunking him, he just pretty much said his feeling tell him its not true
