PlayStation Move vs. Microsoft Kinect

Digital Trends: "This holiday season, the hot item in the video gaming world won’t be a new console, or even a hot title, but a piece of hardware that will change the way you play game on the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360. That’s not rhetoric, that is a fact. Whether or not people buy into it – that is the question.

The PlayStation Move and the Microsoft Kinect are both due out this holiday season, and both will offer gamers a gesture-based controller for their respective systems. While the Nintendo Wii might have a place in the conversation, the new controllers are add-ons to their respective systems, while the Wii nunchucks are a standard piece of the hardware and thus in a different class.

So behind the hype, and beyond the advertisements, which of the new controllers is better? After having some time with each at E3 and a few other events, we put them head to head to find out which of the two should end up on your list this holiday season."

Wii has shown that curiosity can sell systems. Both MS and sony need to drive the curiosity level on these up to get consumers to do a double take.

In the end, if you have a ps3 and are interested in the move...buy the move.

If you have a 360 and are interested in kinect...buy kinect.

It really isnt that hard to understand.

YourFlyness5751d ago

What if I have both, including the Wii?

because I do

darthv725751d ago

that is the best way to play.

My original comment was going to say something to the extent then I figured it would have been to long.

It is much funner to play them all.

dizzleK5751d ago

neither, pick them up during the after xmas sales where you'll find them both in the clearance bin.

Capdastaro5751d ago

I like apples and oranges.

Doesn't mean I buy them.

BlackTar1875751d ago

but im very skeptical about both of them. yes move has hardcore games but will it sufer the same fate to me as Wii hardcore games in i dont want to move around to much.... most def. but what the hell maybe one will surprise me.

All i want is a legit Gladiator combat MP game where your skills in combat are put to the test and not some lucky glitchy BS.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde3d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy3d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga4d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer19924d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga3d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman3d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box4d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion3d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv724d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent754d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit4d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz1494d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning774d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
