I'm the exact opposite, but it's good that different solutions are being pursued because in the end the better technology (should) win.

I played the table tennis. Its pretty accurate. It feels different than the Wii controler. Its lighter, and balanced difference. I found one problem, my finger keeps hitting the start button on the side. This takes me out of game, and I have to resume. When you are swinging at table tennis, you finger is on the back trigger, and the start button is on the side. It naturally lays over it.
The golf, and table tennis demo is the only thing available so far. I am looking for a cheap edition of RE 5 Gold Edition.
You can use the wand to navigate the menu with it. I am letting the batteries charge up now.

Are you playing in a well lighted area, or dark/medium light? I just want to know if that makes a large difference.

Yes, I am playing with a glaring light above. Its so bright, when I try the aquarium program, the ceiling fan in the background is picked up and it constantly sprinkles fish food while its on, and not my hand. So I say it picks up great.
I figure since it has the light bulb on top, playing in a dark area would make it even better.

Well, its different from the Wii. You can just sit on the couch and flick the wand. You have to really stretch out for the depth of movement.
I found its almost too sensitive. While playing table tennis, you really have to watch how you twist the wand. It would turn your racket flat and give you some funky shots. Its just like holding a real one. The only Wii game I have to compare it to is the Wii Sports Tennis game. With the Wii version, if you just flick the remote, you almost always hit the ball back in the right direction, with a just a little timing. Using the move, you really have to watch the racket orientation, and your spacial location when you swing, its that accurate.
The game the Shoot, is fun. Its like you are a movie set, and a director is making comments as you are on a rail shooting bad guys as they come out. You have to shoot locks off girls that are tied up to free them, without killing them. Its a little tough with just a target reticule on the screen, and moving the wand. It will be great, once the gun attachments come out.
With games like golf, you need a lot of open space in the room, because you really need room to swing.
Every game, you have to do a quick calibration of the controller to insure accuracy.
Its a little tough to do a full review, when all that's out are demo's. The Move is definitely fun. But until I see more games with move support, I am not sure I would shell out all the money for it if I already had a Wii, at least until they come out with the killer game for it. If the PS3 is all I had, then I would say buy it for the experience, no question.

I think we cam all agree you haven't played it or tried it and that his mini-review seemed to be generally positive.

I look forward to Natal. The Move is similar to a Wii experience. I have not play the Wii since they added the motion plus. Just for comparison, I ordered it and it should be in next week. Its also hard to do a big review with just a handful of demo's.
It works well, and it performs just as Sony has advertised so far. Other than the start button issue, I can not fault the system from what I have played so far.

thanks for the review.
i actlually LIKE that you say table tennis is harder than the wii one and that it picks up orientation. to me that means it is more accurate than the wii, which is good. i'm glad you have to pay attention to the orientation of your hand instead of just flailing away and returning.
how is the accuracy and precision on the golf game?

So on top of everything else you are spelling Nazi douchebag as well? Ok.
It's fucking wii mote plus on an hd system. No need to wait for reviews.
...and I've played Natal so I know how bad that is.
Thankfully I don't see controller gaming going anywhere.

umad?
Move as shown us 99% close to 1:1 tracking as we can get. The tech demos they have showed off have been amazing, and reviews of it generally have been all positive. If you don't like it, fine, but don't act like it raped your children.
I didn't act like it raped my children. I basically just said it can't be worse than natal even though wii hd is of no interest to me.

I forgot to mention, the Move wand does not make sound. Sony did a very good job on the sound in the games. They do a good job changing up the sound and music to instill tension in the game. Like the match point on the table tennis. This was a nice feature.

I am a little more interested in hearing about the table tennis tracking. The Wii games are so kiddy. No real skill other than basic timing involved. The Move sounds a little more impressive.
