So what's the general consensus on the Playstation Move?

For those who aren't aware, Sony announced their answer to Wii yesterday. You can watch the entire unveiling here:

Or you can read about it here:

If you wondering, yes, it still looks like a sextoy you'd use at a rave:

I'm split on this thing. I was so excited for the Wii to come out but like 90% of my friends with one it lost it's luster extremely quick. On one hand the Wii was so bad in my eyes that anything with motion controls gets an immediate scowl from me, while on the other Move appears to answer almost every single problem I had with the Wii.

The games look pretty, the control seems much closer to a 1:1 experience, I don't have to break the bank to give it a try and it can be added to games that also use a controller.

I'd be lying if I said the table tennis didn't impress me quite a bit. I really liked table tennis on the 360, but the control for the wii did absolutely nothing for me.

Final note ... this vs. Microsofts Natal? I'm standing by my position that a gaming system without proper buttons is balls. Balls.
