Molyneux takes shot at PlayStation Move

Peter Molyneux of Microsoft, the man behind games like Fable, has taken a shot at Sony's PlayStation Move motion control system, saying it is no different than the Wii's four year-old motion controls. In an interview, Molyneux said: "I find it hard in my mind to differentiate between the Sony Move and the Wii... I know Sony and Nintendo would argue that they are different, but they kind ... [ read the full article ]

I really hope Sony gets Kevin Butler to take a shot back at Peter Molyneux. KB is too cool.

This guy really doesn't have very many good games out there:

Besides populous, what is there? I remember before fable came out everyone was saying how you'd be able to do this and that in it, but when I played the game myself it didn't seem much different than any other game.

Black and White was very cool for the time, imo.

It would be very easy for [Microsoft] to have created something like the Wii, but instead they did go that extra mile

so far they have an overpriced system with no core games,just kiddy ones,and a laggy interface at that

They are all the same...some come with a controller, some don't, some track you with a camera...they are all targeted at the same segment...and by releasing both at once, sony and microsoft are trying to wipe out what is left of Nintendo's home market. The only real difference is that the PS3 will have 3D games to go with the 3D movement...but even that is a gimmick.

And the wiimote is not the same as the move-mote; one becomes a DVD remote after a week, and the other becomes a BluRay remote after a week!

The Playstation Eye for the PS2 can do what the Kenetic does. We were hitting/kicking balls around, spinning plates, fighting ninjas 10 years ago on the PS2. The Kenetic is nothing new, neither is the Move. The Move just offers the Wii controls (maybe better) and the old PS Eye controls. MS is doing half of it and not as well. Will MS invent the Wheel next?

Thats almost as good as the PS2 eye toy. I like the post from NHS2008 that compares the two.

Nintendo has nothing to worry about because there is a fundamental difference between their system and XBOX/PS3. With the Wii the motion controls are an integral part of the system while with XBOX and PS3 it's another add-on you have to buy. This is the same reason why the PS2 Eye wasn't a massive hit. Sony expects me to pay $300 for their system plus $100 extra for this add-on plus $50 for games? Seriously the Wii costs $200 with all that and every game has motion sensing not just may be 10% of the games.
