Many a gamer might disagree with me, but offline gameplay is nearing its end.
Sony’s responded to the NPD Group’s December 2010 sales results, and while the electronics company failed to release PS Move sales numbers, it did spoke of the many titles available now for the device, and how, in not so many words, 2011 is the year of the PS3.
Wow, well, I for one never thought it’d go this good for Microsoft. Apparently, a recent survey’s found that only the iPad from Apple beats out the Kinect this upcoming holiday season.
It’s a true revolution, then.
Many predicted this would happen, but it’s always good to have hard facts. Kinect is selling out at such retail outlets like Best Buy, Amazon, Target and many more.
Microsoft wins again.
Microsoft’s motion gaming peripheral, Kinect, is now out and available in the U.S. How will the device perform? Exceptionally well, if you’re to believe the words of Ubisoft Ubisoft’s SVP, sales and marketing, Tony Key.
It’s been out for just about a month, and for a market’s that many thought was already saturated with Nintendo’s motion gaming console, Wii, Sony’s PS Move is proving to be extremely popular in Europe and North America. So much so that the company might have to “accelerate production”.
PlayStation Move will be coming to a store near you on September 15th in the US and on the 19th all over Europe. But before you purchase, Sony wants to make sure that you’re well versed on the motion controller.
So, have you any questions? If so, they’ve got answers.
Kevin Butler has once again proven to the world why he’s the best thing that’s ever happened to Sony’s advertising department.
I’m serious. Below the break, the best motion control trailer ever released.
There’s a time for everything underneath the sun, says the bible, and it’s right. Today, the embargo for PlayStation Move reviews has been lifted. Come see why you should probably buy the thing.
The full review roundup is past the break.
Kinect, the motion control device isn’t even out yet, however talk about how many people it supports, whether you can play while sitting down, and will it come with voice recognition at launch have been raging.
Come on, folks, give the thing a chance already. Yes, it’ll have voice recognition, yes you can play the thing sitting down or standing up, and according to Kinect boss Kudo Tsunoda, it supports more than two people.
Jesus the Christ.
Sony’s pushing hard its PlayStation Move. The company’s hoping the device will usher in a new crowd of gamers into the PS family just like Wii did for Nintendo.
Will it happen? No one knows for sure. But if you were to ask Sony Computer Entertainment’s director of hardware marketing John Koller, he’d tell you the PlayStation Move represents “the next generation of motion gaming”. He’d tell you “it’s the opportunity for consumers to finally get off the couch and engage in a very immersive and precise environment.
He’d tell you all those things and more.
