I haven’t kept up with this much and I certainly don’t mean to bash it, but what’s the deal with the globe on the end? In the commercials it looks like they’re waving magic wands around and tbh they look kinda stupid. Again, no disrespect or anything.
Does the motion sensor use the globe for position tracking or is it some sort of motion package or what?
It’s really cool.. My girlfriend’s parents just got it.. (they got the ps3 for the blueray player/ netflix / mlb.com stream and the move for their kids/ grandkids). I helped them set it up. I played the game that came with it (Championship Sports) and it was really awesome. I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure it uses the camera to find the glowing ball.. unlike the Wii which uses two LEDs. When you are setting up before a game, the system shows you on the screen and a white box outline that you are supposed to stand in.. and then calibrates by having the remote held up, at your side, and at your belt buckle.
I was skeptical, but I had a lot of fun with it… only problem I noticed was that it recommended you stand at least 8 ft away from the screen.. WTF?
PS. I want one.. and a big screen tv..
