    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Like a lot of PS3 owners, I was extremely hyped about the 'move'. Having already owned a PSeye I didn't need to spend a lot to get it all set up either.

    Straight away, I bought 'Tumble' through the PSN, followed by 'Start the Party'. Both of which I enjoyed, for a while.

    When I look at the current games available for the 'move', it saddens me. It was hyped to the max and has, mostly, failed to deliver. I understand a lot of current games came with updates to enable a move controller... but still.

    This game though is one that stands out. Yes it could have been better. I'd have liked a wider spetrum of mini games. Table tennis didn't need to be there with the 'Racket Sports' game available. And the fighting game seemed pointless. But there were moments of sheer brilliance.

    I loved playing the disc golf and the bocce. I enjoyed playing the volleyball (very easy by the way). I enjoyed how the game increases with difficulty as you advance. The bronze trophies and simple, silver tricky, gold very hard.

    The game has enough to keep you amused for many an hour. And if you are reading this then I can assume you already have a move controller etc, then give it a try and you wont be dissapointed.

    One word of warning, you do need 2 move controllers to win certain trophies.

    Good for a few days rental but glad I didn't buy. Table Tennis and Boulee are the best for Move accuracy. Good fun.

    As an introduction to the Playstation move, after a life of Wii, this has to be at the top of the list of move titles. The sensitivity to your movement is quite astonishing and the variety of different activities shows off the versatility of the controls.

    As with most games, I am not sure of its longevity once all the opponents are beat and tend to casually play rather than additively strive for level perfection. This said, the gladiator duel is an excellent workout if, like me, you are a frenzied slasher and the Frisbee golf is just as frustrating as the real thing and great with two. I've not tried the table tennis yet but looks as good as those I have played.

    The Move is certainly a step up from the Wii controllers and this game showcases this in spades. If you want to try out the potential of your Move, not as a third person shooter, this is certainly a title to consider.

    Great game! loved the table tennis , most realistic game i have ever played. sadly i reached the end and have no more to beat. Bocce is fun for a while, same with the other games sadly. Had they added online multiplayer this game would have been legendary ! Thats is the only let down.
