Remember the Playstation Move? It was those those motion controller glow-ball thingies that were released for the Playstation 3 at some point and were supposed to be all accurate and stuff.
So really, what happened to the Playstation Move? Our comment threads were full of Kinect vs Move comments for the last ... [»]
All those pretty terrible ads you’ve seen on the internet for Microsoft’s controler-less motion-sensing doohickey? Those were incomplete! Unfinished advertisements! This is the first “official†one, and as expected, features all sorts of people jumping about like sillies not using controllers. Kinectimals, Dance Central and Kinect Sports seem to be the games on show, although it’s hard ... [»]
The Sony Playstation Move is finally here and promises to usher in a new era of high definition precision to casual and hardcore gamers alike.
Our Playstation Move Demo kit arrived this week, and after we were done ogling the very pretty box that it arrived in, we decided to break out the goods and find out what ... [»]
With Kinect, Microsoft’s controllerless motion-sensing camera system is just 3 months away from general release, you’d expect it to works pretty much flawlessly. At a very recent event in Hong Kong, Microsoft held a Kinect demonstration showcasing the system’s capabilities. They employed two skimpily dressed models to show off some of the system’s sports oriented titles. This is where it kinda falls ... [»]
Microsoft’s controlerless waggle camera has been in the new quite a bit lately. While we’ve not actually seen much in the way of actual games for the enigmatic combination of cameras, microphone and – apparently – magic*, we do know when it’ll be available. According to Syed Bilal Tariq, Microsoft’s marketing manager for the Saudi Region, the thing’ll hit ... [»]
Happy Friday folks, it's the weekend and we here at Lazygamer are all extremely revved-up and excited to go home and do absolutely toss-all. It also means that it's time for our Flamebait Friday Debate.
Motion controller thingamawhatsits are all the rage with the kids these days, aside from that damned devil's music, ... [»]
The folks at Kotaku have just filmed some never before seen uses for the Playstation Move in a demo that was done for them recently.
While we all have a basic idea of what Project Natal and Playstation Move really are, the worth of the products will only show depending on how they ... [»]
Besides being a generation behind in terms of hardware, the Nintendo Wii, complete with motion controllers and all, should be at the forefront of console shooters.
In reality, it just isn't. While there have been a few attempts at the genre on the Wii, none have gone so far as to really stand ... [»]
Sony's nameless motion controller, you know the one to take on Microsofts' NATAL, is looking at an early 2010 release. The "wand" was shown off at E3 earlier this year, with great praise and true 1:1 motion control.Kazuo Hirai, president and group CEO of Sony ... [»]
Sony showed of their prototype motion controller to us all at the conference and I have to say that while the technology looks impressive the actual demonstration left a lot to be desired.I have never given a press conference myself but even I can tell you that demonstrating ... [»]
As most of you know, there is a lot of talk going around about the new motion device that Microsoft is going to unveil at E3, this after they said that it would change the way that we think about gaming, and that babies would be illness free for the rest of eternity.
The thing is that Microsoft bought the company 3DV that is developing the device, and we just happen to have found a video of 3DV showing off a very similar ... [»]
There is a story on arstechnica today about them having demoed the yet un-announced Xbox 360 motion controlling hardware already. And thinking back I remember reading about it on their site last year after E3.The difference was that back then it was called 3DV and ... [»]
Motion control, while used before, is a prominent feature this generation. Nintendo’s emphasis on motion control and their wholesale ingurgitation of the casual market has meant that its competitors (whether they’d like to brand themselves as such or not) have reason to believe they have to follow suit. Rumours of Microsoft incorporating motion controls in the 360 have been circulating for years.Sony’s PS3 of course already has rudimentary motion control – but reports from the inner sanctums of the internet indicate that Sony bigwigs may feel that its half-arsed waggle just isn’t enough. Seems that details of an LED-based system of motion control are surfacing and that if the internet ninjas are correct, will be demonstrated at this year’s E3.I’m still of the opinion that motion control is this generation’s white elephant – It’s applied usefulness is still out ...

I just stumbled across this on Engadget and if it’s true this would obviously be Microsoft’s big announcement for E3 this year. According to an anonymous source the white bar above is Microsoft’s new sensor bar however it doesn’t detect a controller like the Wii sensor bar but rather detects full body movement. Nothing to exciting you say? Well it can apparently detect movements as small as a pinch as well as detecting grabbing, scrolling or your typical fighting movements. We ... [»]
If you recall about a year ago the biggest news doing the rounds was the hugely anticipated Newton motion controller for the Xbox 360. The hype was so big at one stage that it was a virtual certainty that we would be seeing Newton at E3 in 2008… Well E3 came and went and no motion controller for ... [»]
