I've got the Move Bundle pre-ordered & the Nav Controller. I don't think it's as much as a rip off of the wii or gimmicky. It seems as if it's further development of the Wii(something that Nintendo should've done first hand to keep all of us hardcore gamersinterested), and it's the Wii controls that are gimmicky. Major gimmicky. Move seems pretty slick from what I've seen so far... Definitely interested in trying it out.

Honestly, Resident Evil 5 might push me to get a Move but only because RE4 on Wii was pretty amazing. If they can magically make RE5 a game that is at least almost as good as 4, I'll probably bite.

I do wish the developers would have opted for a more sophisticated camera. While it may have taken more horse power from the PS3 and possibly cost more, I think the controllers would have collaborated better.

On the other hand from what I've read so far it seems it's going to be up to the software developers to make the controls as 1x1 as possible. The reviews I've read seem to have come to a consensus that since some of the games control really well, it comes down to the coding used to make the games 1x1.

For instance the controls on the game Slider are almost non-responsive, but there is almost no lag at all with Socom or Start the Party.

Really have no interest in the move or kinect. I had 2 wiis and sold both of them because the damn thing is so boring.

PS Move is nothing revolutionary, and it won't be able to play off the success of being a motion controller because the Wii already cashed on that. Move is just going to be looked at as a Wii controller, a knock off...and I suspect that the games won't be great either.

I'll get it if I can use my Sony Rewards points to get one free. I already have the Eye, so I agree with the previous poster about cameraless bundles. Probably will be picking up EyePet for the kids.

I need to see good games first.

The controllers are too expensive. I like the motion controls and I'd like to pick em up, but not for a hundred dollars.

waiting for gamestop to get an influx of them for x-mas. Sad to say I have a hunch this might be one of those items come christmas everyone has to have to the stock will be low.

I am getting the move controller and Eye Pet, both are interesting to try out. If I don't like it, I won't be out as much money if I had bought the Wii or Kinect. I am also eager to try out RE 5 and Heavy Rain when they update the games for the Move.

The only way I would have the PS Eye is if I got it on clearance from Kmart for $4. That's all it's worth to me. As for paying $50 for a controller and game I'll probably use once or twice and never touch again, no thanks.

But if Gamestop puts out some sort of trade promo around the same time I find some cheap trading fodder that gets decent values BEFORE the bonus then I might consider it. But paying $50 AND for a game AND for whatever other junk Sony says I 'need' for it, no.

As for the HD display, the $40 Acer monitor that was clearly used was not that good of an investment, but it's under warranty till 2012 or so. So if it goes I can just have it repaired in warranty. I wish I could say the same for my now out of warranty slim PS3. A one year warranty on a $300 piece of hardware versus a 3 year warranty on a piece of hardware I paid $40 for. Hmmm. Something seems a bit skewed here.

But that's neither here nor there on this topic.

Sony(much like some here at times)doesn't like when you post stuff that might be taken negatively about them. I've found out firsthand every time I post in one of their firmware junkware to me threads.

Monkey see, monkey do. But what Sony and MS both fail to realize is that their prices are restrictive. For another $100 versus the Sony bundle for JUST the controller/camera/whatever, you can have a Wii system with a complimentary first set of controllers with the system.

It'll take more light gun games for me to buy the move.

It seems the PSN exclusive RTS Under Siege will have Move support as well. You can watch a video and read more details about this here:

Sony needs a banging launch for the move, they dont want a upset like the pspgo, plus, or home

Hmm, I thought you got the PS Eye for $15 at Kmart on clearance (because I was posting about it myself when I got that deal). Oh well, I just thought it's a little crazy to say you'd buy a $200 Wii over a $99 bundle that has the same stuff the Wii has.

The only thing I think is shitty about the bundle though is that there's no controller + game bundle w/o camera and w/o the nav controller. Anyway, I hope they come out with more bundles later that have a pack-in game that I actually would want to play.

I just don't have any interest in the whole control concept, I fell into the Wii hype and have two games total I played one of which came with it..

I just don't see it as 'new' and 'exciting' why not focus time perfecting something totally new, more voice control of the unit for operating it, movie playback, and online media

However, I was speaking from the perspective of a new buyer, in that for an additional $100 over the cost of the Move bundle someone could buy a Wii and have a system to play with motion controls.

It still seems to me like both MS and Sony are trying to play catch up with these motion control devices they're both coming out with now. I liked it alot better last gen when all three companies seemed to want to differentiate themselves from each other a bit more.

I look at it like a Wii HD with eventually better games, which in the beginning is what everyone was asking for. Not to mention motion controls that seem like they will work better.

I liked the Wii so I'm looking forward to trying out the Move but as others have pointed out, future game releases will reflect it's success. The actual system itself appears to be accurate from reviews I've read so it'll be up to the games to utilize it to it's full potential, right now I'm looking forward to the upcoming Time Crisis the most.

I've never even tried a Wii system or any of it's games and judging by the games I've seen for it most wouldn't hold my interest outside of 10 minutes.

Even though I've finally conceded that I do like how the PS3 looks when playing on an HD display, it still comes down to the games for me. If the games are fun and challenging(but not frustratingly so), then I'll buy a system based on that.

But I've hated motion controls every time I've played a game that used them(Lair, Heavenly Sword for some parts), so that's really why this is a no buy for me. Although the price is definitely another stumbling block.
