Sony on PlayStation Move's 'secret weapon'

July 29th, 2010, 22:00 Posted By: wraggster

Sony Europe boss Andrew House has claimed that sales of PlayStation Move are going to "explode in the next 12 months" - but revealed that 3D's success will be judged on a longer lifecycle.

Sony revealed the official UK price of Move's various bits and bobs today, with a Starter Pack - including the Move controller, a PlayStation Eye camera, starter disk and nine playable demos - coming in at £49.99.

House commented that the feeling of immersion experienced when playing with PlayStation Move will be the peripheral's "secret weapon" once gamers get it in their hands.

Speaking to the August edition of the Official PlayStation Magazine, House commented: "[Move] is eminently usable for existing franchises. [It's] not just a minor enhancement - it's a real shift in terms of immersion. I think that's its secret weapon."

He added: "I think [3D and Move] are on different lifecyles. PS Move is very much something which is going to explode within the next 12 months, whereas 3D is a much longer [term] proposition."
