It’s not the Gem, or the Arc. Sony has opted to name their motion control system the Move. That’s right: the Playstation Move.
They announced the device would be available in three configurations. There will be one that includes the PlayStation Eye, the controller itself, and an as-of-now unannounced game. There will be a bundle with a PS3 console, and a stand-alone option for those who already own a PS3 and the camera.
They’re targeting somewhere under $100 for a price, though a price was not revealed. They also mentioned they’re going to market the device hard, though that should go without saying. Is it just us, or is anyone else getting a severe Wii-vibe from the picture to the right?
UPDATE: A plethora of games was shown off at the conference. Sony showed the following games off at the conference: Move Party!, developed by Supermassive Games; Sports Champions; Gladiator Duel; a version of Littlebigplanet; and Motion Fighters.
Also, Sony revealed a list of companies making games for the device, which includes the usual suspects. Among the named were EA, Konami, Ubisoft, Square Enix, Namco Bandai, Activision, Crave, Disney, WB, Sega and Tecmo.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Official pictures have been released, including shots of the unfortunately named nunchuck-esque “Playstation Move Subcontroller.” Enjoy.
