Default Sony announces the Playstation Move motion controller & games

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Our launch games are designed to appeal to all PlayStation 3 fans. We’ve got our own take on social games such as ‘Sports Champions’ and ‘Move Party’ (both working titles) as well as keeping our more serious gamers in mind with DUKES and EA’s Tiger Woods 2010. Many of our existing franchises such as SOCOM will also be enhanced with PlayStation Move functionality – because of Move’s low performance impact on the PS3 system we’re able to add this to our existing games without compromising graphical quality or gameplay. The PlayStation Move experience will offer our players a fun, high definition and immersive gaming experience.

You will be able to get involved with PlayStation Move in several ways:

Camera + controller (including a “starter disc” with a range of demos for games releasing later in the year)

A single controller for people who already have a PlayStation Eye camera

A full console pack which includes PS3, dualshock3, Move controller + camera

Finally some of our biggest games will be available with a Move controller included

We’ve also announced the Subcontroller this week, an additional peripheral for use with more hardcore titles like SOCOM, which benefit from analogue stick input.

Saw some of the announcement on Attack of the Show last night and the technoligy looks cool but the 2 games I saw, ping pong and some fighting game did not impress me.

Too lazy to look up additional details, but currently unexciting sounding to me. If it's executed well it might be worth it, but motion capture...meh. It'll be hard to tell a lot of things with only one camera. A 2 camera motion capture system could be worthwhile though.
