    Don't get me wrong i wish Sony all the success in the world, and i am always open to new stuffs, not to bang on about DJ hero agin but i honestly believe its great and has a lot of potential ( m currently working on an iPhone app that if works well could be easily translated to the DJ Hero deck).

    Its just that Move seems like a long stretch, i just find my self looking at it through the squinted eyes of a non-gamer and just see a Wii remote with a ball on top, and how many Wiis are there just sitting collecting casual dust?

    I hope Move is a success, i really do, the same as Natal, because they provide diversity and opportunity, but i just don't see it with Move. I feel like if it could have been done with Move it would have been with the Wii remote. While Natal poses similar risks it at least provides something different.

    I whole heartedly agree with both you (Mancubus) and Grognard.

    Sony should have just shut up and taken the royalties. To make something so blatantly "cash cowish" as 'Move' and then claim to not want it to be full of shovelware is frankly ridiculous.

    Of course there are other opportunities for Move, exactly the same as Wii, but lets face it the hardcore want their familiar controller and high quality releases, and the casual waggle lot want to pay £35 to wave a stick at whatever they are told to wave a stick at for 5 minutes.

    Sounds like a good time to be a developer that just gets on with making good games and leave the gimiky rubbish to everyone else.

    I loved the time i spent holidaying in Germany and have got along with nearly all German's i have met. To say Germans are all Nazis today would be the same as saying all Brits are Imperialists, which just isn't true.

    Although I think what is happening in Luton regarding a Conservative MP trying to ban Burkas would show that the U.K isn't exactly squeaky clean either. You don't even have to bring up the BNP to find biggots in our so called tolerant society. Part of the Look East (local BBC) coverage even had a woman stating women should only wear Burkas in their own home, thus entirely missing the point of why women wear burkas.

    I hope your right!

    In the days of online walkthroughs and games that hold your hand is there space for Moore's Games master though?
