Suda51 concerned by PlayStation Move


Recommended Posts

Where did Ironman ever discount Move in this thread, let alone state he has Move? He posted an article to a midnight launch of the Move that had nobody there. Big whoop. The you countered with midnight launches are a joke, then he showed the midnight launches are successful and fun for thousands of people for the right product.

BTW, we picked up the Move bundle this morning. So far so good. It is a more accurate Wii HD (which is a good thing). My only complaint so far is there is a little lag, but no where as bad as the Wii.

Which game(s) are you experiencing lag in? Curious.

Disc Golf and Table Tennis so far. That is all I had a chance to play before my son and his cousins decided to take over the TV again. realmad.gif

When I get a chance, I am really interested in all the demos.

EyePet is freakishly interesting. Tumble is worth the purchase.

I've yet to really experience noticable "lag" on disc golf. Probably due to the fact that it requires the use of only one button and one motion. Table tennis slightly, but nothing that would hinder gameplay.

The lag hasn't hindered the game play. It's just noticeable. Hell, Wii is much worse, but that never hindered game play either.

Haven't noticed any lag but I've no doubt that it's there, there has to be 'some' lag no matter how you are sending the instructions.

Loving Sports Champions so far, had a quick go on the Echochrome demo last night too. Next purchase will probably be the Tiger Woods 11 :)

Have to get the patch for Eyepet too. Next decision is do I get PSN+ this month or just pick up a few of the Move games instead?

Well, Sony needs to sell it first ;) :D

lmao :D

Would be nice to compare it to the open night against the sales of Kinet... it will sell more that move I know it :p

And no midnight launches are not dead... I went to the WOTLK one in the UK... even though there is a Game/Gamestation/HMV Right next to each other they were all packed out... :whistle:

I don't think anyone is saying they are dead, but really a controller peripheral isn't going to get the same pull as a Triple A title or new console revision release. I wanted the Move on launch, but no I wasn't going to be queuing up to get it!

Hil-ari-ous. Keeping that with my PS3 launch photo from HMV :p

As for the OP, it's pretty much a story of the tables have turned, when MS gave developers a dilemma with the HDD situation.

True words here. It's not like there is a back log of people looking to play Sport Champions or replay Heavy Rain with a new controller, that they are going to stand inline for it. Had Move released with some AAA title that required Move, I think it would have been a different looking line. Say GT5 REQUIRED Move (I know it wouldn't, but as an example), GT5 and Move sales would be off the hook, and the midnight lines for GT5 and Move would be endless.

What is HMV?

I already have the original eyePet, is that compatible?

Yeah there is a patch available :)

What is HMV?

HMV (His Master's Voice) It's a long standing UK music store that also deal with bluray and games etc.

You've never heard of the chain-music store HMV? They sell blu ray, dvds, cds, records, books, game etc etc. They are all over the world

Anywho, these are the exciting scenes I am talking about... http://www.ukresistance.co.uk/2007/03/victory-in-europe-photographic.html

Dang, thanks guys. No, this is indeed a first. Looks like I have nothing like that where I live. But I see they have them in Canada, and I am flying up there next May. I will have to see if they have some in Ottawa.

The thing is that midnight launches come with some expectations. The store owner keeps the store open and pays staff for that extra time. The expectation may be set from the manufacturer or just from the market knowledge of the retailer. Either way they are looking for some payback from the effort. Someone dropped the ball with that and it's all I was pointing out. When TD replied "midnight launhces are a joke" it seemed like he was saying they were not relevant. The "dead" comment was mine from his original comment. We'll see what happens when Kinect gets its midnight launch. It might be similar, it might not.

do we know they'll have midnight launches though ?

honestly I've seen less hype about Kinect than I did about Move. it's mostly been fan discussions mingled with some minor MS PR. while Sony was way out there with their hype campaign abotu how awesome it was and how much better it was. So I'm not sure I see a midnight launch happening.

I also don't see it as a midnight launch product. YEs i think they'll sell lots, but not midnight launch lots. it's more of a lots over the holiday sales season lots

I would think they will have a launch but like the Move will probably be sporadic in it's success. As I mentioned earlier, these are just new control methods, not the latest and greatest game in a long running franchise or a new hardware revision. They will sell well, but won't be breaking launch day records. Holiday periods are where it's at :)

They used to have an HMV in NYC in the 90s but was one of the companies to collapse in the US with Tower and Sam Goody when packaged music went downhill

And because of this, we are lead to believe GT5 and LBP2 will both record massive numbers. Perfect timing with the early/mid November release dates on these first line titles. Move will be probably be Sony's "third in line" this winter.

Wasn't MS treating Kinect as a new console launch?

  • 1 month later...

Midnight launches (regardless of console) are such a joke anymore. There's not need to stand in line like a lifeless fool when services such as Amazon offer release date delivery.

There's a certain spirit and fun about attending a midnight launch. Its not for everyone, but I've attended a few midnight launches for videogames, which I could just as easily walk in the store the day of and buy, but its always a good time chatting with people who share a common hobby.

    • I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.
    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
