PlayStation Move: The new kid on the block?

PlayStation Move may be four years behind the Nintendo Wii, but it's a major leap forward for the age of motion gaming. The new set of peripherals, available this weekend for the Sony PlayStation 3, doesn't revolutionize video games, but it shows Nintendo fans what they're missing out on: surprisingly precise controls paired current-generation graphics. It is the tech behind PlayStation Move that really sets it apart from Nintendo. Because of hardware limitations, the Wii only tracks relative movements (panning left, right, up, down) and pointing at objects on the screen. However, Sony's combination of wireless controllers and a video camera allows for near 1:1 movement within a 3-D space. While gripping a Move controller, your on-screen sword, magic wand, or ping pong paddle will match your every contortion. Roll your wrists, lunge at the camera – Move will keep up with almost zero lag. For more details click here
