Playstation Move Overview

The PlayStation 3 Motion Controller was unveiled at E3 2009, where several tech demos were shown to demonstrate the types of experiences this new-gen controller will offer.  Released in September 2010 the Playstation move is Sony’s answer  to  Nintendo’s Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers.  Already the most powerful console on the market the Playstation 3 will now look to conquer the interactive side of gaming and attract a whole new fan base of casual gamers both young and old just as the Nintendo Wii has done since its release several years ago.  We have the full range of Playstation Move accessories and games available to pre-order now.  This product is guaranteed to be one of the big hits this coming Christmas. Be sure to order now as stock of this product is likely to be very short in the run up to Christmas 2010.

The Playstation 3 Motion Controller contains built-in motion sensors, including a colour-changing orb at its head, which interacts with the PlayStation Eye camera to track movement. This tracking is precise, meaning the PlayStation 3 Motion Controller recreates every single swing of the arm and twist of the wrist exactly on screen.

The PS3 has had Motion Technology since its launch back in 2007. The Sixaxis controller launched with the PlayStation 3 and gave gamers a small amount of motion control.

For those of you who own a PS3 already, the PlayStation Move Bundle is the complete Move package, offering everything that you, your friends and your family need to enjoy PlayStation Move in both single-player and multiplayer modes. The PlayStation Move platform is designed to be flexible. Sony have done their best to give you plenty of options, both in terms of game play and hardware, so you can customize your PlayStation Move experience to fit the way you game.

PlayStation Move redefines motion gaming with the most immersive and realistic gaming experience only possible on the PlayStation 3 system. The simple, easy-to-use controller captures a full range of motion giving you ultimate control over how you play the game. With a diverse selection of games and new ones launching all the time, you can enjoy hours of fun with friends and family.

Whether you’re experienced, casual, or somewhere in between, PlayStation Move has a wide variety of games including sports, action, party, family, and shooters. The games are addictively fun and the outcome of every move is all under your control.

 

Playstation Move Motion Controller

For the vast majority of PlayStation Move games, you can play with one motion controller when playing solo. There are some titles that give you the option to play single-player with one *or* two motion controllers if you would like, such as Sports Champions. It’s completely up to you. One title launching that is an exception worth noting is The Fight: Lights Out, which requires two motion controllers to deliver the best possible experience, tracking both arms and your head with one-to-one precision.

In many games, when you’re playing against friends or family, you can all share one motion controller – in a game like Start the Party!, for example, players can just pass the motion controller around. You will need more than one motion controller only for simultaneous game play — for example, if you’re going head-to-head with a friend in a Sports Champions gladiator duel, you will each need your own motion controller.

The Move Motion Controller contains advanced motion sensors such as a three-axis accelerometer, a three-axis gyroscope and a terrestrial magnetic field sensor to measure your movements and motions which are translated into on screen movements and commands.

The colour changing sphere on the end of the controller is tracked by the PlayStation Eye and by using the power of the PlayStation 3 it detects the movements, angle and the absolute position in 3D space, to add to the accuracy.

PlayStation Move Navigation Controller

This newly announced part of PlayStation Move is a one handed controller that further expands the interaction that you can experience with PlayStation Move titles.

The sleek design makes the Sub-controller easy and comfortable to use. But for those who still enjoy buttons, the Sub-controller comes with an analogue stick and directional buttons to move

The PlayStation Move Navigation Controller is an optional add-on that brings directional buttons, an analogue stick, and two face buttons into the PlayStation Move’s control scheme. The sleek Navigation Controller essentially replicates the left side of the DualShock 3 controller for familiar and natural control. We think it’s a wonderful supplement to the PlayStation Move platform, especially for games like Heavy Rain, where you control a character, but it’s not required for any of the PlayStation Move games. The DualShock 3 controller that came with your PS3 will let you do everything the Navigation Controller does in all PlayStation Move titles.

It all goes back to the PlayStation philosophy that every consumer is different, and everybody benefits when you get to make your own choices. An extra motion controller or a navigation controller are additive to the PlayStation Move experience. For some of you, aiming a bow and arrow with two motion controllers in Sports Champions will be the enhanced realism you’re craving; for others, one controller will work just fine.

Your Playstation Move controllers are always close to hand and ready to go thanks to the Playstation Move: Charging Station. Stylish and convenient, the Charging Station is compatible with up to two Playstation Move Motion or Navigation controllers.
