Rumour: Sony Working on Touch Powered PS Move for PS4?

Push Square: "Sony has recently patented a new controller design, hinting at some form of revamped motion device for the PlayStation 4. Similar in form to the PlayStation Move controller on the PlayStation 3, this fresh peripheral includes all of the same core functionality as its current generation counterpart. However, there is one area that it differs from its predecessor: it has a touchpad on the front."

Damn I'm sorry but gamers want Oculus-like device not another motion control gimmick.

ravinash4557d ago

But wouldn't a device like move add to the Oculus expereance?

XiSasukeUchiha4557d ago

The Oculus like device would be more immerse experience than move!

WeAreLegion4557d ago

Yes, it would. Many people use the Razor Hydra controllers while using an Oculus. Totally adds to the immersion.

Jdoki4557d ago (Edited 4557d ago )

I agree with ravinash and WeAreLegion

The Move controllers could augment the Oculus to create much more immersive and true virtual reality experiences in some circumstances.

Using 3D controllers, like Move, in conjunction with a 2D screen shows the limitations of the technology and in most cases makes them pointless. Using 3D controllers with a headset designed to create a 3D experience is much more realistic and sensible (in some cases).

Joe9134557d ago

You are correct just like 3D added to the move in KZ3. Oculus support will not come to PS4/3 because Sony is working on their own hmd tech and when it come out it will work with the move controllers.

No Nobody cares about this crap. It may have been cool in 2006.

stuna14557d ago

Speak for yourself! The move controllers have great potential when implemented correctly, prime example was Killzone 3. That game made using the move controller a pretty enjoyable core experience in my opinion, once people got past the initial learn curve concern moving around. But like all motion controls it's up to the console makers 1st party developers to truly utilize and show why others should adopt this form of control.

rainslacker4557d ago

Just curious on why it's necessary. Can't the DS4 act as a move controller? It already has the light, the touch pad, directional inputs, and all the gyroscopic sensors the Move has. I thought that was Sony's original intention with the DS4 light in the first place.

I remember even the original SixAxis controller had a few motion controlled games made for it. I still play High Velocity Bowling from time to time.

MatrixxGT4557d ago

Ok maybe I should not have said nobody cares. Im sure some people will like it. I think its safe to say majority have not kuch interest in it unless it moves beyond the gimmicky game stuff and more along what guy above referencing KZ3.

GirlOnFire4557d ago

Motion or touch controls shouldn't be a pain to use or set up. I'm hoping an simple smaller control than the PS Move with touch implements at your use. ^~^

JackISbacK4557d ago

this will not be bennifisial because these things will not be forced and sony also cant force devs to make move games because no body will buy ,leaving some guys ,but i like m$ move because this forced thing will only make devs to apply hard work on it and will have realy amazing results ,however people discriminate m$ but there this move is great and opens space for inovation and i belive when therre will be truly big motion based titles ,or AAA titles using kinect in great many ways will force people to believe in it.i'am not a fanboy but i realy appreciate inovation,then just some upgrades.

GirlOnFire4557d ago (Edited 4557d ago )

If innovation is force feeding an Kinect which is an copy off of PlayStation Eye toy then no appreciation will be coming from me. I'm glad Xbox One owners like what they are feed. Last gen the Kinect was an failure things sure changed....I guess. Enjoy your Kinect ok its fine to like what you like. I'm not buying Xbox One until its out of the box. ^~^ And so if you like innovation instead of just some upgrades why you buy an upgraded Eye Toy called Kinect?
I'm sorry if I'm coming off as rude. I agreed you to be fair.

JackISbacK4557d ago

soory buddy,kinect is not going to come out of the box because 1st party studios have already spent millions on it to derive new gameplay styles wich use kinect,yeah i respect your thoughts and every buddy have their own opinions ,you have your but ,at least try and find it out by yourself,therre are not much games which uses kinect buy use it camera and sensor technology to read your skelton,yeah it reads your movement very correctly and evven the movement of your fingers,this proves that kinect is a great tech,yeah last one was flop because no body wants to work on it ,beacuse of lack of sles,remember wii and success of its motion tech,it was successful because it was forced,and now kinect is the simply best motion capture device ever created for market and force devices will give rooom for gameplay innovations ,it is not having much reasons to buy it now but i belive it will attract you one day,may be next year when big titles will use it in great many ways.
therre is gona be realy strong and amazing line of aaa exclusives on the device ,which will use kinect in may ways like quantum break,halo 5,fables legends,black tusk studios game which is rumored to create and include who new type of motion based gameplay and features in their aaa title which is set to compettete halo series,from microsoft studios and it will be an hard core title ,not a game for kids,i'am realy exited for and you will also be when you will see those story based core master pieces.

Cacabunga34d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot32d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose34d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE33d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername33d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy33d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde33d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8633d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8633d ago (Edited 33d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300033d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle33d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7733d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
