Engadget: The PlayStation Move. It's funny to think just 15 months have passed since Sony first unveiled its motion controller, and now we're mere weeks away from hitting the retail market.
Two new patents filed by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) suggest that a new motion-controller could be on the way, specifically designed to boost the interactive nature of the company’s virtual reality (VR) platform, PlayStation VR. The potential revision of the existing PlayStation Move controller adds an analog stick and a finger tracking technology. The controller looks like it is fitted with a wide array of buttons, including the essential trigger on the back and what looks like four buttons along with (presumably) the circular home button at the top. There’s even a hand strap to help you keep your grip on reality.
The PlayStation VR is using motion controller technology from 2010. Is this a detriment to the PlayStation VR?
YES! Sony really does need new peripherals for PSVR. I was surprised when they announced it. The move should've stayed exclusive to the PS3.
The move works perfectly
But not many games have implemented it very well.
Two good move games are :
Sparc
Batman VR
But a move controller with an analog stick or move handgloves would be welcome as additionals.
I love the fact that Sony is loyal in supporting old devices like psp or move and lately even ps2
Yes and VR and Kinect and 3D and augmented reality and any of the other stupid gimmicky fads that are out there.
TK: Examining the boom of motion-controlled devices a few years ago and its recent decline. Peripherals considered include Kinect, Wiimote and PS Move.
I never really bought into the whole motion-control fad. the Wii was cool and so was Kinect. Nothing ground breaking. Its been around since the days of the NES.
