And so the struggle to find Move commences.

We already know what PlayStation Move does and how, but Sony is keen to crow more about the controller's capabilities in comparison to its motion control rivals.

Don't expect them all to be free

Looking forward to the Move-capable updates of Heavy Rain and Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition?

Well, you might be wrong. The Official...

The truth finally uncovered

We already reported the ongoing confusion surrounding PlayStation Move's launch date, and finally after a lot of journalistic rooting around and emails back-and-forth we've put the issue to bed.
