[quote name='SonictheHedgehog1337']Good advice. I didn't even realize the 7.49 gun was made by Sony. I'm looking forward to hearing your comparisons of the guns.[/QUOTE]
Here are my thoughts since I finally had time to use both back-to-back for awhile:
Precision Shot 3:
- Looks nicer than Sony version
- Quicker & easier to mount/secure PS Move (not really a big deal)
- Optional Nav mount
Sony gun attachment:
- Feels somewhat less flimsy (not really a big deal)
- Trigger requires less force to pull (noticeable but not a deal breaker)
- Less expensive ($7.49 vs $16)
They both feel good in my hand. I'm going to keep both so I can switch back & forth whenever I get bored of using one, LOL! Overall, I'd pick the Precision Shot 3 due to the included detachable Nav mount for use on games such as Killzone 3, Resistance 3, Socom 4 & GoldenEye Reloaded.
[quote name='lukewin']I have 2 of the shooting attachments, so here's my 2 cents. I've been playing Dead Space Extraction with it and the Nav. I prefer it a lot to just holding the Move or using the Sharpshooter. The Sharpshooter gets heavy and having to have my left hand in front of my right makes it even heavier over time. I can play with the Nav in my left hand, resting on a chair or bed. It seems like it's a lot easier to get accurate shots with the shooting attachment, as opposed to just the Move, just because holding the shooting attachment feels more natural than just holding the Move to point and shoot. Same reason I preferred using my Perfect Shots on the Wii, instead of just holding the Wiimote. Only problem is with games that you have to push the buttons on the Move, luckily one of the L buttons on the Nav does the same thing as the Move button on the Move for Dead Space Extraction.[/QUOTE]
Yes, I agree! It feels more natural in games that require point & shoot.
[quote name='MIX_MASTER_ICE']Well outside of the squeaky trigger there's the flimsy front grip, which also holds the nav controller. It houses the nav controller straight up, which is extremely awkward. I've never seen anybody use a nav controller with it pointed straight up..lol. Glad you are enjoying it, however.[/QUOTE]
Using the nav controller in the mount, I have no issues with it. To each their own.
[quote name='Zippon']Somewhat tempted by the Sony pistol after trying the Sharpshooter, but the main thing holding me back is the lack of digital trigger input. The Sharpshooter has that sweet usb dock, while the pistol relies on an ancient mechanical design.[/QUOTE]
The size does really matter in certain games such as, "The Shoot" or "PS Heroes" since you gotta toss the Move around & it's much easier with the gun/pistol attachment. Also, for less than $8, it's hard to beat! Although, I am curious about the Madcatz version since it's basically the same price.
