BajiRav Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 PlayStation Move ad mocks Natal, attacks Nintendo Wii The PlayStation Move was just announced, but Sony is wasting no time before going on the attack. The newest?not to mention first?advertisement for the peripheral makes fun of the Nintendo Wii, attacks Microsoft's Project Natal, and basically buries the entire message under a thick layer of smarm with a side order of smug. Yeah, this commercial is pretty much awesome. http://www.youtube.c...h?v=w0puP8nrIU8 We were lucky enough to spend some serious time with the PlayStation Move at GDC this year, and you can read all our thoughts and impressions in our latest gaming feature. Ars Gaming classic Sony. Arrogant and dumb! Although still funny in a way. Lewism 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmatic Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 i wonder how many other xbox360 and wii references are there? im trying to look at the 2 rooms, see if i can recognize anything familiar from them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmmay Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Very amusing video. If only I had plans to buy a PS3, I might be interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Markus Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Quite funny have to say, however easy to take a stab at Wii for instance that's been doing it for couple of years already when Sony still struggled with their DualShock controllers.

SaltLife Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 What is that fighting game in the video? If you can control all physical aspects of the fighter that would be awesome... Especially online... I for one am very excited to see this 'move' in action. I have a wii, but their controller is nothing in comparison to what I've seen in the Sony videos. And to the remarks of the dildo, the sad fact is, until I've seen user posted content on this forum I would NEVER have thought that, so thank you for your insight and maturity. I'm glad we are all so educated in dildonics. **Note** I do not have the wii-motion plus, so perhaps it has gotten better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smigit Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 See the thing is, I don't see anything stopping MS (or third parties) giving people a physical device they can hold to use with Natal if the game does require buttons. In fact I'm sort of surprised they haven't shown anything which would take care of those concerns gamers have who dont think certain games will work when using motion only.

Sikh Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Wow. To be TOTALLY Honest, I love the way sony does its commercial. Hate the "It only does everything" because in my mind a few other Playstation Owners, it DOESNT do everything like sony thinks its does. But, with these commercials they proved they can do tasteful commercials but at the same time the "some gamers would like buttons" is bull****. Natal is aiming at motion specific gaming. I dont see ANYONE playing a shooter(more then just single player) with MOVE. I will definitely say I for one will use NATAL for racing(i drive a stick, so with how accurate microsoft says it will be, and if it is, ill be driving like i do in real life, for that im very excited), and the general "wii sports" games. See, I have no problem saying I might just try move, but in no way am i gonna play shooting games with it. Maybe fighting, that highlight about feeling punches was cool, and im all for getting active and gaming, I cant sit too long and game anymore, my body doesnt like me if I do. I, since day one of NATAL being surfaced to the public, or atleast neowin, i loved the idea. Nothing in my hands, play virtually. I love that idea. For me motion sensing was always that, no controls. I would gladly take that over MOVE, WII, anything. So its not my favoritism towards microsoft or the 360, its the fact that there idea IS ORIGINAL. I also do think from a business perspective SONY just ****ED UP. Why? Because now the public will start watching these and be all interested and stir up talk, which will make microsoft see this and work HARDER and try to make NATAL as precise as possible. Im not saying it will be as precise as MOVE or the WII, but I do see them trying there BEST and HARDEST to make NATAL very well interesting for a lot of people. Also, like stated in the OP, Just like sony to be arrogant and smug. NATAL was demoed based off sports and burnout, no where in there did I see microsoft demo a shooter. They honestly know better. If anything, this will force them into creating a controller to use JUST for shooters for NATAL. I can see this happening and I will laugh at sony if it does. But, in the next few months + e3, hopefully we see more NATAL. I know soniqstylz had a hands on demo with move / was at GDC, so ill believe him about move. But he didnt say anything about NATAL so i dont know if it was announced or it was still not demo'able. Either way, we all have to wait and see.

+Mystic MVC Posted March 18, 2010 MVC Share Posted March 18, 2010 With all the revelations about Move lately especially the fact that it does have lag, this really amuses me to see something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winlonghorn Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I like all three of the current generation game consoles and enjoy them a lot, but I must admit that this commercial is indeed funny. :D lol. The part about using your hands and pretending that they are guns like we are in kindergarten is the part that I liked most I think. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S00N3R FR3AK Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I thought the video was great, the shots they took were all pretty spot on though of course shots could be taken at Sony too. I have never been interested in a PS before. Skipped PS1 with N64 and had a Gamecube and Xbox last gen. With 360 and Wii on day one never felt a need for a PS3. Now seeing their exclusives and these Kevin Butler commercials has greatly perked my interest. How E3 pans out will greatly affect the console I take to college with me. O and apple should take notes, this is how you can take shots at your competitor without looking like an *******(imo) and show case your product at the same time.

I'm guessing you haven't seen any footage of SOCOM 4 using the Move? It looks like the most promising title from the launch games by far. I'm sure plenty of others can see themselves playing it too.

I don't see the fun in using motion controls on a game like this if it isn't that different than you just sitting there using a controller like normal. Why bother making it harder for yourself?

Gotenks98 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I think this will kill the Wii for sure. They will only be able to sell first party stuff after the Move and Natal come out. I would love to see how this works with Resident Evil 5 gold edition, I hear it supports the Move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
