Unlike other platform holders, Sony has a concept approval process, meaning a game has to receive a thumbs-up from Sony before it can go into development for a PlayStation platform. Although this should limit the amount of low quality titles released for the company's consoles, the odd one or two still sneaks through the net. Here's some we really hope don't.
Endless Party Games
Yes, we all love a good party – especially here at Movemodo, where our shindigs regularly go on until 8pm – but the line's got to be drawn somewhere. Start the Party should kick things off in good style, but we don't want to see the floodgates opened for the likes of 101 Party Game Megamix
Wii Ports A-Go-Go
The Wii has some undeniably great games that would work brilliantly on Move: we listed some in our Five Games We Need to See on Move feature, in fact. Although we understand developers wanting their games to reach the largest possible audience, we'd rather see original and unique concepts than... you guessed it, 101 Party Game Megamix.
Bethesda RPGs
Oblivion and Fallout may seem tailor-made for Move, but think about the implications: here are games over 100 hours long, and playing them with one arm in the air doesn't sound like gaming comfort. Although Move would undoubtedly increase the immersion factor, the question of whether motion controls belong in an expansive RPG is still to be answered. That said, if some enterprising accessories company made a Rugdumph's Sword add-on we'd gladly reconsider.
Soul Calibur
A game based on outlandish characters, combos and huge weapons on a control scheme aiming for 1:1 accuracy and fidelity to movement? Soul Calibur might sound like a great idea – and the idea of playing as Maxi with two Move controllers is ridiculously appealing – but there are better ways to destroy your property.
PaRappa the Rapper
Okay, we lied. We really want a new PaRappa the Rapper title, complete with Move-controlled onion-chopping and voice recognition. That said, the last game from creator Masaya Matsuura was Wii's disastrous Major Minor's Majestic March, so perhaps it's best if the world's greatest rapping dog stays in PlayStation's past.
Which games do you desperately want to stay away from Move?

@ NESGamepro
Bethesda RPGs would be more suitable than most due to their first-person view. Think Dragon Quest Swords without the on-rail segments.
I think fallout would work well with move considering I would play it with my arm on an armrest moving the pointer with my wrist like in super mario galaxy
We don't need to see Pong Toss on the PSN...or do we?
@liam - now that you mention it....dragon quest swords would be amazing on PS Move--actually having the sword slice the way you want it to would make that game infinitely better...and might make the final extra boss fight possible
@Hyper Knuckles Oh yeah imagine all the WiiWare ports we could get! Pong Toss would be top on my list of stuff to avoid
I actually agree. I am very pleased to see the like of No More Heroes, Dead Space Extraction and the more Mature titles that didnt do very well on Wii make the jump to get the sells they deserve, as the audience for the titles may be a bit larger on the PS3 with Move.
All the Wii shovelware than stay on the Wii and it all can rot and die for all I care.
