Sony has just wrapped up their main E3 2010 press conference and among the news being revealed, the PlayStation Move has been priced and dated for release. The Motion Controller and Navigation Controller will retail for $49.99 and $29.99 respectively. A bundle retailing for $99.99 will include a Motion Controller, PlayStation Eye, and Sports Champions game. Lastly, a console bundle priced at $399.99 will include a PlayStation 3, PlayStation Eye, Motion Controller, and the aforementioned Sports Champions game. So plan on tacking on another $29.99 to the console and retail bundles if you plan on picking up the Navigation Controller, which looks like a vital part for some games. I'm sure if you don't, you'll be able to hold a DualShock 3 as a replacement.

The PlayStation Move will release on September 15th in Europe, September 19th in North America, and October 21st in Japan. Also in case anyone was wondering, the PlayStation Eye currently retails for $39.99 at most retail gaming stores[...]

Just seen this on Kotaku. It makes me wonder how awkward it would be if you were using an assault rifle.

It makes me think of playing Duck Hunt as a kid and holding the gun 1" in front of my TV screen and dominating.

Then thinking about how shitty that would turn the online community of a solid FPS.

That most likely wouldn't work with the move as the camera needs to see the Move's LED sphere(does that ball of light have a name?).

Nice strategy though, I never thought of that when I was a kid.
 
I'm still not sold on this unless a killer games comes out and is bundled with it, it still lokks pretty good, though.

This, and also if it were a bit cheaper, I think the price of a regular ps3 controller right now sounds reasonable; $55 for the Move controller and the Navigation controller. $80 dollars for both seems a bit too high to me, but yeah if there are games that work well with the controller I'd probably go out and buy it.
