Starter's orders
SEGA's London 2012 — The Official Video Game of the Olympic Games — whew — will support PlayStation Move, the publisher has announced.

First Impressions Grand Slam Tennis 2
The latest tennis contender
The recent Grand Slam Tennis 2 demo on PlayStation Network supports PlayStation Move, so we got to grips with its motion controls to see how it shapes up.

News Move Sales Catching Up with Kinect
The gap is closing
While Microsoft seems happy beating the drum of Kinect sensor sales, Sony hasn't been quite so vocal about how many PlayStation Move controllers it's sold.

Intrigued?
In the race for every Move game to have the most realistic graphics and motion control, one game is going to prove hard to beat.

The official description probably makes more sense: The goal is to keep your accelerometer...

Sorry about that
Konami's liquid PSN puzzler Puddle looks like an interesting use of PlayStation Move, and at least as interesting as the rather-similar-actually Fluidity on WiiWare.

Sit back and enjoy
Champion Jockey will make use of PlayStation Move when it launches next month, but how? Let this video answer all your questions.

News PQube Announces "Most Realistic Move Dancing Game"
No, it's not Let's Dance with Mel B 2
Some PlayStation Move dancing games are OK. Some, like Let's Dance with Mel B, are not OK. Here's hoping that PQube's new announcement Dance! It's Your Stage is better than that, at least.

News 2K Promising Better Move Controls for NBA 2K12
Shoots a three-pointer
We loved NBA 2K11 on PlayStation 3, but the Move controls left a little to be desired: no Navigation support and some shaky shot recognition took away some of the game's shine.
