PS3 controller is titled Move, says source


Recommended Posts

Unless you don't need the camera to use the Move, it's $100 for the Move system. You can spin it any way you want, but it's not like Nintendo sells the Wii-mote in a package with the sensor bar. The PlayStation Eye is an integral part of the Move; don't try to make out that the remote itself is cheaper. So yes, they've announced a price.

They are selling a camera-less bundle, however, for those who fit the first part of your statement. There's also a bundle with a console as well.

UT3 was mouse / keyboard on ps3. The capability is built in, the problem is you need seperate servers which devs don't bother with, so only a few games support it. I'm sure FFXIV will support it.

like I said realistically consoles aren't about mouse and keyboard. I know the ps3 supports mouse and keyboard and that's on thing I like about it but when I found out all the things that needs to happen for it, it's not realistic to expect console players specially ps3 to break out a keyboard and mouse.

I totally understand the capability is there. But like you said extra servers, Dev support and etc. I'm fine/happy with keeping mouse and keyboard for PC and Controllers for console.

Why do people get upset when a developer or company follows a trend? You say, be original, yet this is no different then each company ripping off the revolutionary vibration control used in controllers today. It's just an added functionality to our gaming experience. At least this motion controller is not the core basis of the games for the PS3, but an additional peripheral for other gamers.

This is no different in my opinion then adding a peripheral. We should be thankful that each company is adding to this rapidly changing technology. Be small or great strides in the technological differences (sony implementation vs microsofts) What it comes down to, is that we will ALL need to remember Nintendo started a new era (as they seem to always do, thank you NES).

I'll be purchasing this add-on because my kids love the PS3 (thanks to ratchet and clank, and various others), but they do love using the motion controller. My youngest and wife find it easier to maneuver characters in-game with the Wii-Mote...

Where are you getting this $100 price from? I pretty much go to other sites and have not seen any true confirmation yet of price.

Yep that would be me in the first sentence. I already have the Eye (it may finally have a purpose LOL) so I just need to know what the controllers cost themselves.

Honestly doubt I will get this or Natal. I own a Wii and one motion console is more than enough for me, unless either make some killer game I just have to have, really doubt I will waste me money on either unless it is super inexpensive.

People get the $100 price from the announcement sony made at GDC about the bundle which includes the eye, 1 controller, 1 sub controller, and 1 game for "under $100" which in marketing terms means $99

Although they haven't announced the price of any other bundles, they did announce a controller-only sku and a PS3 console bundle. They haven't even announced if the controller and sub controller will be sold separately or bundled together. I know Nintendo only sells them separately to make more money.

+1 rep to you. I rarely laugh when behind my keyboard..but I did for real this time. yes.gif

Sadly, I'm actually part-way serious, I bet you'll see a lot of games that were buily for the Wii with expectations, and sold like crap.

How long until we have Sony Move Party, Sony Move Fit, Sony Move Sports, Sony Move Dance?......

too late, that's already done and ready to go. Played it, quite fun but not gonna cause me to go buy it. In the video posted above, it's where the little girl is "painting". As far as Move Fit, I wouldn't be suprised to see them bring back Kinetic from the PS2 days, way before Wii Fit, since it used the Eye Toy as well.

Move Dance would be awesome if you could use the 3iimotes as glowsticks.

I sware Nintendo had that same darn video (done nintendo style).... sheesh

i also like how the video has the tags: Wii and Nintendo Wii too

it shows that Sony isn't ashamed where it's inspirations came from.

anyway, even with the criticisms, this is a good move by them. (pun partially intended)

Now I don't have to go buy a Wii for a few measly games. Wahoo! cool.gif

Yeah but you won't be able to hold the Move remote sideways to steer cars

do you really hold a steering wheel like that though? i'm sure someone innovative can come up with a good control scheme for the move. worst comes to worst, there's an actual steering wheel controller... or use the standard controller.

    • This is how much iPhone 18 Pro could cost after Apple's price hike confirmed by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed in a recent interview that the company may have to raise prices on some of its products due to the ongoing memory shortage. While he did not elaborate on the scale of the price hikes, new estimates suggest that Pro iPhone models could become significantly more expensive this fall. The Wall Street Journal and research firm TechInsights have come up with an educated estimate of how much the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could cost after its launch in September. The estimate is based on current increases in memory and storage chip prices. For starters, the iPhone 18 Pro base model is expected to feature 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. According to TechInsights estimates, 12GB of DRAM for the iPhone 17 Pro cost Apple $39 last year. However, for the iPhone 18 Pro, the cost of the same amount of DRAM could soar to $145. Likewise, 256GB of flash storage that previously cost $13 could now cost around $51. Producing a base iPhone 17 Pro reportedly cost Apple around $582, but TechInsights estimates that the production cost of the iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $726. If Apple wants to maintain the roughly 47% profit margin it enjoys on the iPhone 17 Pro, the base price of the iPhone 18 Pro would need to reach $1,371. After standard pricing adjustments, customers could end up paying around $1,299 for the base model. However, that may not be the end of the story. As we previously reported, the iPhone 18 Pro is said to feature a variable-aperture lens, which could cost Apple at least 50% more than the current camera system. The estimated $1,299 price tag does not include the additional cost of this upgraded camera hardware. Once that expense is factored in, the base model could cost at least $1,399. A $1,399 price tag for the base iPhone 18 Pro would represent a significant increase over the current $1,099 starting price of the iPhone 17 Pro. If Apple wants to keep its upcoming iPhones competitive, it may need to accept lower profit margins.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
