With Microsoft's highly anticipated Kinect finally in stores, all three major current-generation gaming consoles now offer some form of motion control.
NRM: "A team at Brunel University London has developed a new system, which helps people with Parkinson’s disease overcome debilitating walking problems."
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.
