Gran Turismo 5 works with PS3 Move
Mar 14th
Sony’s official US PlayStation Move site appears to have revealed that both Gran Turismo 5 and Disney’s Split/Second will work with the motion sensing device.
Other ‘featured’ titles listed alongside the peripheral include ModNation Racers and SOCOM 4 – which Sony said would be compatible with Move at GDC last week.
The inclusion of three ‘core’ racing games in the list suggests PlayStation Move will be able to be used as a steering wheel – a function Nintendo’s Wii Remote also serves – or that they will support headtracking via Move’s camera.
Nintendo this week said it was ‘flattered’ by the similarities between the two devices.

Mental Math: The PlayStation Move Experience Is Going to Be Expensive
Mar 12th
Sony barely mentioned pricing with their PlayStation Move motion controller, only noting that the combo pricing with PlayStation Eye and a game will cost less than $100. But by our back-of-the-envelope calculations, the experience is going to be really expensive.
Our previous look was with the Wii MotionPlus, which clocked in at $80 per person to be fully equipped. That was $40 for the Wiimote, $20 for the Nunchuck and another $20 for the MotionPlus dongle. Now, you can get a WiiMote + MotionPlus bundle for $50, bringing the 1 person cost down to $70, factoring in the Nunchuck. For four people, assuming you didn’t trash the bundled WiiMote and Nunchuck from your Wii console purchase, the cost would be $230.
