The Question of the Millennium : Xbox Kinect or PlayStation Move?

Competition is heating up in the gaming zone. But the eternal question is, shall I go for Xbox Kinect or PS 3 Move? Both are equally appealing and offer varied games and gameplay options. So which one is actually better?

I’ve had my friend who bought PS 3 Move over Xbox Kinect. He’s got some reasons to tell you why. Here’s Nikhil, take over.

There are so many options for 3D gaming today that it has become difficult to choose what to buy. XBOX Kinect and PS3 Move are all very good but they have pros as well as cons.

Lets start with XBOX Kinect. It senses the direction in which your body moves and thus is very advanced but the single main problem with it is the absence of button(s). It brings down the agility with which you perform the moves and also brings down the variety of moves that you can perform. Moreover, it’s quite slow at recognizing your actions. You also need to be fit in order to use it as your whole body needs to be used while gaming with it. Another big problem is that you require a large drawing room, a minimum of 2-3 feet distance between you and the kinect sensor for a good gameplay experience.

Playstation Move on the other hand is much like Nintendo Wii. It is much more accurate than XBOX kinect but then the main problem with it that you can only use your hands for 3D gaming. So games like football cannot be played in 3D using a PlayStation Move but when it comes to shooting games like killzone or sports (except football), PS Move is certainly the best. The T button which is in the back of PS Move is also very useful. The buttons are in comfortable positions which make it better then Wii. There is a large variety of  games available for Move compared to Kinect. So Happy 3D Gaming with Move!

So  PS Move is what you should preferably buy as it gets the upper cut due to higher accuracy and better gameplay. What do you guys think about it?

Sony’s Rumored PlayStation Phone nears reality : Gaming gone wrong

If Engadget is to be believed and the rumors blowing are true, this is what the upcoming PlayStation Phone is going to look like.

Immediate reaction : Don’t buy. The design is ridiculous, a bulky perhaps massive compared to its sleek competitors in the market. It is rumored to sport a 3.7 – 4.4 inch screen with multitouch, which is good. The sliding keyboard does more bad than good to the design.

What you see up, is exactly where gaming is going the wrong. The ancient Playstation buttons the X,O ones and the arrows are complete mismatch in this generation. The whole device appeals to me that it’s another chinese handset running on android and has got couple of games. Or perhaps, an Experia with a sliding keyboard.

I would rather buy HTC’s Desire HD which is faster than this phone (786 Mb Ram) while having almost the same config as this phone. Plus, the Desire looks way better than the one we’re talking about here. 1 Ghz SnapDragon (2nd Gen) Processor, 1 GB ROM, 5 MegaPixel Camera. The PS phone has got a addition touchpad in between and will showcase a custom Sony Game Store.

It’s speculated to run Android 2.2 for now but will hopefully launch with 2.3 (Gingerbread) version of Android. I can’t imagine carrying this phone with me and sliding the “stylish” device and playing games. I would rather play paper toss on iPhone. This phone somehow reminds me of Nintendo’s GameBoy, Yes a revised version of GameBoy with tons of open source and software layering and a neat price tag.

It’s quite disappointing to see this phone. We could have got something more sleeker, faster and something unique. This phone is not worthy of being bought, it doesn’t do justice to it’s grandfathers, the PlayStations.

What I finally make out of this is : Either this is a fake representation of the model as Sony can’t possibly go so bad or else, this will be the first and last Playstation phone if it enters market.

interior of a ps2 controller

We have opened up a Playstation 2 controller for you people so that you people dont have to open
up your controller. The chip is very complicated for any ordinary man ( not a scientist or somethin’). There is a carbon sheet upon the controllers chip which connects the buttons and the analog to the chip which finally connect’s to the wire. And also there is a motor in the handle which goes round and hit’s the controller’s handle which make’s it vibrate. that’s all! Have a look at these pictures.
