Sony Dubs Motion Controller "Playstation Move"



It's time for another entry in "shit I'm only writing about because I know I'm supposed to care." Yes, it's that magic time where I write a post solely in the name of looking legit. This time, it's the announcement of the official name of Playstation's motion control.



Sony finally debuted the name at the GDC yesterday, and it's called the Playstation Move. Creative, huh? The brilliance continues with the list of known video games that will utilize motion control:

  • Sports Champion
  • The Shoot
  • Slider
  • TV Superstars
  • Move Party
  • Motion Fighter
The motion controller will also come in a number of bundles and be treated as a full platform launch. Expect one bundle to include the PS3, the Playstation Move, and the Playstation Eye (the webcam! DURRRrrr!). Another will included the Move, the Eye, and an unspecified game for under $100.



To be fair, it's not that I don't give a damn about the Move. I mean, I don't, but that doesn't mean I won't. I just haven't heard of any supported titles that make me interested yet. Check out the Move in action below:

What's with the dongle, does it light up? Does it do anything?

I think it does, and I think it corresponds to the person's assigned screen color on multiplayer games. Not pictured is the nunchuk-like counterpart to be held in the left hand. I may need to add a picture.

I've updated the post, Regina, so you can see what that looks like. They're like little light saber orbs.
