This is what Nintendo hoped the Wii could do when it was first developed. I'll admit I'm not huge on motion gaming but the possibilities for Move are pretty enticing.

(Move information starts around the 14 min mark for those interested)

(Warning the video is long since it's from a developers conference but some of the games definitely show off some pretty promising things. Motion fighters and the sports game look promising)

Also the bundle that comes with the eye is less then $100 so not too bad of a price either.

The problem is, if Nintendo releases a full hardware update to the Wii in the next year or so, Sony will still be playing catch up and will eventually have to abandon this. Should at least make for an interesting E3 since Nintendo is releasing its major titles before summer. Wonder what they have up their sleeves for the holidays?

The problem with Nintendo is the hardware doesn't work as well as it should. Wii motes don't do 1-1 tracking successfully and the Wii is not in HD which pretty much makes it obsolete to core gamers. The Move can and will do much more then the Wii and it will look a lot nicer as well. Unless Nintendo is planning on releasing a Wii-HD with a better tracking system then it's not going to beat out the Move. Nintendo designed their system so that people who have never played video games before could use it. Sony while hoping to reel some of these people in with the Move are still going to hit home with core gamers when it comes to motion control because they will offer the one thing the Wii and probably Natal can not, precision.

it's cool, but I really can't ever imagine playing this with any kind of specificity.

it's like that terrible ninja wii game. you would try to pull your sword and end up shooting yourself in the dick.

Thats exactly why people will be more likely to use the Move. The precision of the controllers is so far ahead of the Wii Motes it's absurd.

I just got the Move using my rewards points from my Sony credit card. I have to say I really am enjoying it. Got Killzone 3 to try it out on and the Move does a good job of detecting when you aim off screen. Not sure if you could use it competitively online though. Not to say it's got bad controls but it just feels so different. Give it time and you may be able to.

Any other games I should try it out on? I got two of the moves and one of the navigation controllers. Might start up Heavy Rain move edition soon.
