News Heroes On The Move Renamed To The Spectacularly Rubbish "PlayStation Move Heroes"
Sigh
Of all the things PlayStation Move has going for it, catchy software titles are not one of them. We already have Start The Party, The Shoot and The Fight.

TV Superstars is nothing if not unusual

Our biggest complaint with the excellent Sports Champions is that on a presentation level it's pretty flat
