Become Russell Crowe at last!

Despite earlier claims that Move's Australasian release was set for September 16th, Sony's official European blog has dropped the bombshell that the controller is available now across Australia and New Zealand. It won't just be letting the controller sit on store shelves waiting for people to pick it up though, as it's touring the controller across Australia in a fashion not unlike the recently announced US Move tours.

Taking in over 100 dates and spanning pretty much the whole country, the tour will be your opportunity to get hands-on with the Move and some of its games. To find out if and when the tour is visiting you, head over to the official PlayStation Move Australian tour page for all the information you need.

Australian Movers who feel particularly lucky may also want to think about entering Sony's Show Us Your Best Move competition that asks you to video your best PlayStation Move... move, and upload it to YouTube. What could you win for showing off your incredible physical prowess? Only a 46" Sony Bravia 3D TV and two pairs of 3D glasses. Keep your eye on the official PlayStation competition page to be in with a chance of winning.
