Hello friends. I am back and I am blogging after a week. Today I am gonna tell you about this new motion controller.The Playstation Move feels very little like the launch of a new controller. Instead the Move feels like Sony is rolling out an entirely new gaming platform, and in many ways they are. It might look funny, like, as Totilo likes to say, an ice cream cone for a robot, but the Move’s controller feels all kinds of right. The Move is actually slightly thinner in the middle, giving it a subtle, almost dumbbell feel. The finish seems to grab onto your hand a bit more than we’re used to, putting any fears of flying controllers to rest.The trigger has the same feel to it as the R2 and L2 triggers of the standard Playstation 3 controller. That new Move button, located in the top center of the controller, is an over-sized, pressure-sensitive oval that feels squishy, but still remains responsive.
The most obvious thing about the Move controller is the big, white, rubber ball that rests at the very top of the controller. The empty, light-up ball isn’t there to just make it easier for the Playstation 3’s camera to track your movement. The ball flashes colors in some games, denoting your movements, or reaction to things happening in the game. Games like Start the Party, EyePet and even Sports Champions all experiment with the idea of turning that Move controller into a piece of cartoon fiction when it shows up in live video on your television. The first time you see it, a live video of yourself holding a cartoon weapon or silly toy, it’s really neat.The Move controllers all feature built-in rechargeable batteries. You can use a USB cord or some third-party Playstation 3 controller rechargers to give your Move controllers a second wind. Sure, as with the PS3 controllers, you need to leave your console on to do it, and that still annoys the hell out of us, but at least you don’t have to swap out batteries. THIS NEW CONTROLLER IS COOL! THAT’S ALL FRIENDS FOR TODAY! 😀
