subject: The PlayStation and the Wii [print this page] The PlayStation Move has finally been launched and is expected to finally put all of the comparisons to the Wiimote to rest. After all, it was only a matter of time before other consoles got in on the motion control style of play - and Microsoft isn't too far behind, with its own version of the technology for Xbox.
And once you get past the looks of the PlayStation Move controller and actually play one of the games, you'll discover just how far the PS3 motion control differs from the Wii's - PlayStation has really taken motion sensing gaming up a notch to a whole new level of video game entertainment. From the colour-changing orb at the tip of the device right down to the advanced motion sensing technology that helps make the PlayStation Move accurate to pinpoint precision, it's easy to see just how far the PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii's motion control devices are.
One of the most exciting things about the PlayStation Move is that there are currently a whopping 36 third party developers all working away at producing games that are catered to the technology. That means it really won't be long before the market is packed with a world of top notch titles from some of your favourite developers. It looks as though PlayStation intends on getting the PlayStation Move technology off its feet as soon as possible, and you really can't blame them. Seeing the success that the Wii has provided Nintendo with, it makes sense to get into the market - though only after a few tweaks had been made, that is. Once you've tried out the PlayStation Move, you might understand just how hard Sony worked to iron out some of the problems users have reported with the Nintendo Wii, making the PlayStation Move a smoother, more reliable and more enjoyable experience.
Why not find out yourself by snatching up one of the technology's launch titles today? There's already an impressive amount of introductory titles out there that are aimed to help you get to grips with the PlayStation Move before you get started on the harder stuff. You'll soon realise that, while there are obviously going to be similarities between the PlayStation Move and Nintendo Wii hardware styles, there are definitely some marked differences. And perhaps you'll even find out that PlayStation has taken one piece of innovative technology, added their own spin to it, and made it a whole lot better.
