PS3 Move

This is an early and abbreviated review on the PS3's Move capabilities. The hubby and I gave it a test run last night.

First all I would like to upgrade PS3's "C" marks on data transfer to a "B+" from my last post. I checked everything out last night and it appears everything moved over safely and my 'lost save data' is no longer lost. Hooray!! It only stays a B+ instead of moving up to an A because the time it takes to do the transfer was more than 'advertised' and I had to get a LAN cable to do it, as opposed to working with something that comes with the machine. Nit picky, I know, but it remains that it's not the easiest thing to do and anyone with any technofear probably would have had a coronary trying to do it.

But on with the Move Review.



Want the Reader's Digest version? Ok! It's pretty fucking cool. There. Now you can get on with your life if three more paragraphs is taxing your schedule.

A little more detail? Ok. This is my first foray into motion gaming. It's possible the Wii has this thing beat and with 360's Kinect coming out this week as well, I am sure it's got a lot to offer. Since I don't have a frame of reference you will just have to take my opinion at face value. In general I enjoyed my experience and look forward to playing more games with Move.

My husband played Tiger Woods Golf 2011 and was really impressed with it. He said it really felt like playing golf. Then we tried the disk that came with the bundle and played a Gladiator game. (Slashing, hacking, jumping around) I would just like to make it common knowledge that I am House Champ of the Gladiator game and I have the sore shoulder this morning to prove it.

Haven't tried Resident Evil 5 with it yet, but that is on my list of thing to check out. If there was a way to get me off my ass and moving around, it looks like Motion Gaming found it. Not that I want to only play games like this, but it's fun regardless.
