PlayStation®Move

[TheTenth]

most obvious weakness of the Kinect is you can't turn back, as you wouldn't see the screen anymore, that can be done with Move + nav easily ; only this prevents most sports, heavy action games (in most FPS where you're taking cover, the character is back on the cover and back to the action)
another similar problem is moving great distances, like you do in football, or dodging / ducking for cover - or you'll hit furniture, or even sports like olympic games with jumping hurdles, spinning for hammer throw, swimming, cycling ...
so the most limiting thing won't be a technical problem due to detection, but a logical problem of what the character is doing, and it's a far larger limitation

Golf

Golf games have already been covered with....

Tiger woods and Everybodys golf

Both move enabled versions now.

Tennis

Tennis games are muli platform titles but they remain average titles as the games are average titles when released normaly even on DS3

Move does have definitive Golf and Tennis games. These were released about a year ago

Virtua Tennis 4 ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5H1GWoYQuKQ )

Tiger Woods PGA 11 ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1WhxebCe5Q )

But i am shocked that Kinect makes you stand ( face on ) to the TV playing golf, instead of facing sideways to the TV like normal stance when playing Wii, PS3. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbBfO51Tm0k ) Wonder why that is? Must seem weird playing like that.

You allready know why? you were just scared to type it.

Even the Eye toy had this problem.

So Would the Move with out the magnetic and sixaxis version2 sensors.

It can't do the back wards part of the swing very well via cameras. when you put your hands behind your head and shoulders at the end of your up swing, the cameras can't see it. the over lap of the body gets in the way. face the cameras and the cameras can pick up your full arm and hand motion.     

The solution Eye toy users came up with for the fighting mini game was to pick up the camera and move it 90 degrees. Eyetoy was small so it was easy to do.

Oh i see. The camera can't see your hands when swinging as they go behind your head.

I would have thought that MS would have known about the limitations like this when making Kinect? Even from knowing about tech- limitations in the past.

I've had 360 Slim + Kinect and now have ps3 slim + move

Kinect needed alot of space and wanted me thru the wall of my bedsit at times lol but seemed better to keep track of you and settings.

Move simpler setup, it just sits there but doesn't hold settings very well, in House Of  The Dead I can sort out the tracking but after 3 times it has the crosshair on the other side of the screen and i have to aim way off to hit anything.

I purchased the next version of House of the Dead and it can't even complete tracking setup, so that was a fiver wasted.

There seams to Be a great big set up flaw with some users homes. That remains unlisted that effects Move. As other users on this forum played HOTD 3 with no problems. As the HOTD3 and 4 topic shows. Eye pet and friends also has had user wondering over the config screen not being able to start, when others have just sailed on with the game to completion.

Didn't have any problems with using Move in HOTD. I was getting some good head shots lol. Nothing wrong with tracking whatsoever really.
