Also, I was trying to think, but what does everyone think will be the killer app for the PSMove?

Microsoft is really going to need a killer game to get people to buy Kinect. And by that I mean a game that actually kills people. It will sell through the roof.

I don't know much about the launch games, but I guess a fun sports game is needed. The PS3 one doesn't look like too much fun...

I just want to say that at E3 2010 I got a chance to play a few PlayStation MOVE titles and I was impressed. The responsiveness was like a Wii on steroids (and I actually enjoy the Wii). There is dead-on accuracy even better than was seen on stage at the Sony Press Conference, which led me to believe that the titles like Sorcery were not nearly done being QA tested yet, they should be much more responsive by the time they hit Alpha/Beta/Final phases.

All around I'm not saying I want to forever abandon my DualShock 3 controller but the MOVE is amazing definitely. No offense but I feel like if you disagree you must hate the Wii also and/or have never actually tried the device.

The Kinect on the other hand looks pretty awful because you can't wear baggy clothes, need a 20ft open area in all directions, and it has crap for titles... This was the biggest let-down of E3 because Microsoft really boasted how great the device would be and failed to deliver any exciting titles (in my opinion). I still hold on hope for it in the long term, but as it stands right now I am just really disappointed that a really old technology like this which has been done before on PC, Dreamcast, PS2, and PS3 (and never had a good game on any of those systems either mind you) is looking more primitive and unimpressive than ever on the Xbox 360.

The Kinect has been done before... that's a new one.

About the Kinect; if you take away the fact you can't wear baggy clothes and need huge space in every direction - it's still pretty innovative [for home markets] and still amazing technologically.

What's so innovative about a web cam with boring games?

Maybe you need to take a look at this video before you say it's innovative:

Motion technology in games that tracks the entire user.

The caliber of the games has nothing to do with it.

If the caliber of the games has nothing to do with it then neither will I. I'm just saying...
