Playstation Move review and release date

This is a post from Ps3 Maven who bring you the best play station 3, Games, Mods and News.

The new product from Sony, the PlayStation Move. Microsoft are saying that Sony copied them, as Microsoft is releasing the Kinetic and made it available for the public to know about it one year and a half, or more, in advance. So Microsoft do think Sony has copied there idea, but enough about Microsoft and the Xbox. Let’s talk PS3.

Anyway PS3 gamers in the EU are the most excited, as the PlayStation Move will be available a whole week before the US and one day before Australia. On the other hand Japanese gamers are the least happy, as in Japan it’s going to take another month and a half. So if your Japanese, tough luck. Just think that I will be using the Move a whole month and two weeks before you. Haha, I’m joking, I do feel for you, I’m a good person. Now these dates have already been confirmed and are official so take a look below-

USA 19 September
EU 15 September
AUS 16 September
JAP 21 October

So the PlayStation Move is another ‘version’ of Sony’s ‘interactive game cameras’. I say this because Sony have already released one or two cameras like this, without the controllers, (I’ll explain later) There used to be one on the PlayStation 2 for boxing games, and more interactive ones instead of just using the joystick. It’s expected to be a great hit for the whole Sony gaming market, and the PlayStation it’s self.

Now it’s not going to be as advanced as the Xbox Kinetic, but it seems to be a tiny bit more responsive which can make a huge difference when it comes to deciding on the best one. But keep in mind that the PlayStation Move isn’t just about the camera in front of you, it even has the controllers like the Nintendo Wii, actually they look the same. Here take a look-

It just has a light bulb sort of thing in front of it. I think it’s pretty cool and like it.

So if your a big PlayStation fan like me, then go out and buy it, that is when it’s released of course. In the mean time have fun.

Sleek PS3 Wand Controller Concept Incorporates Motion Sensing Technology

Sleek PS3 Wand Controller Concept Incorporates Motion Sensing Technology

This is a post from Ps3 Maven who bring you the best play station 3, Games, Mods and News.

It is not always easy to depend on a regular and old fashioned PS3 controller while playing different video games, and Sony had announced their Magic Wand sometime ago, which makes use of the famed PS3 Motion Sensing Technology and it looked real good.

However, one requires that special-something to bring back the fun while playing games and the one designed by Miguel Duarte, looks just right! Miguel has created the cool new conceptual PS3 wand, which is a PlayStation motion controller design. The PS3 Wand looks really sleek and slim, and thus should not pose an ergonomic problem.

The PS3 Magic Wand Controller concept comes with double wands, a strap and an adapter. You could attach the wands to make them seem like a real PS3 Controller, if you want to play the regular games. However, when you are playing games that require a lot of hand movement, you can simulate your movements in real time with just the wand, held by the strap.

The PSWand seems like a really cool concept, but there isn’t much information available about its technical specifications. It would certainly be equipped with motion sensors, and with the control buttons placed strategically, it would be a breeze to play video games. You could also take a look at the in depth video featuring the Sony Magic Wand.

PS3 Motion Controller Magic Wand In Depth Video Demo

This is a post from Ps3 Maven who bring you the best play station 3, Games, Mods and News.

The exciting new PS3 Motion Controller, also known as the Magic Wand for 3D PS Games, is schedule for Spring 2010, but it doesn’t mean we don’t get some additional information from Sony to get us excited and hyped towards next year.

This in depth video of the PS3 Motion Controller goes a lot further than before about the Magic Wand’s capabilities, looks, movements and actions. Without the E3 time constraint allowing them to only show certain highlights, Sony now demos the Playstation 3 Motion Controller slowly, with explanations throughout the way.

The capabilities are still great with the Magic Wand, like we already seen before, but in this video, it is also shown how the Magic Wand can be used as a controller to pick up things and actually control a character or action further than just pushing a button. It also shows the variation between the ‘real world’, ‘virtual world’ that shows the actual item the Magic Wand represents within the game or screen and also the copy of the virtual world which combines the PS3 Eye’s view of the player and the Virtual World. The latter grants the player a better ability to really imagine the object the PS3 Motion Controller has ‘become’.

Allow Sony to explain the whole ordeal much better including showing you the cool visuals and examples. I personally can’t wait for this to come out, and by what they mentioned…it is up to game developers to use the technology and come up with amazing use for it.

PS3 Motion Controller: PS3 Magic Wand Scheduled for Spring 2010

This is a post from Ps3 Maven who bring you the best play station 3, Games, Mods and News.

Sony PS3 has been working on their own motion sensing gaming for the PS3, and Kaz Hirai, the CEO of SCEA, has mentioned it is scheduled for a Spring 2010 release – we can only hope it really comes true.

The PS3 Motion Sensing Technology, also titled the Magic wand, will provide a brand new controller that will mimic your gameplay and allow for better interaction and vision of the actual object of the player. The Magic Wand PS3 comes will supposedly consist of a few separate buttons bit include a “flashing orb” in the front (top) which will in turn allow the sensing of your movements and perform the specified actions; syncing with the screen gameplay.

The 1st cool PS3 Motion Controller video below was a sneak peek from the previous E3 conference, which shows the different possibilities and ideas currently worked on by Sony. The 2nd video goes over the PS3 Magic Wand development and early prototypes.

It looks extremely fun and it would be great if some cool games will be added to it, along with some 3D PS3 Games.
