News Dig In to These New Puss in Boots Screenshots
Kitten's got claws
THQ's just released some early screenshots for its first Move-enabled movie tie-in, Puss in Boots, and it's looking pretty decent, actually. The game will let you do all the things Puss himself enjoys: duelling, sneaking and serenading women with a guitar, apparently. We haven't seen the film yet, so maybe that bit will make more...

News Valve Staging a Counter-Strike for PlayStation Move
Respected series takes aim
Counter-Strike is one of the most well-loved shooters on PC, but hasn't reached quite the same level of success on consoles, perhaps due to the controls not working quite as nicely on a traditional controller. That's about to change though, as Counter-Strike: Global Offensive for PS3 will support PlayStation Move. The next...
News Japan's PS3 Game Malicious Coming to Vita
Boss battles galore
End bosses make up much of our favourite video game moments, so a title like Malicious — which is composed almost entirely of boss battles — certainly piques our interest. The game is already out in Japan as a downloadable PS3 title, but will be making its way to Vita as well. The game currently sells for a mere 800 Yen...
News In Tales from Space, Mutant Blobs Attack
They can't help it

News Grand Slam Tennis 2 Shots Show Their Faces
An impressive start
EA announced Grand Slam Tennis 2 several weeks ago, but the initial teaser trailer didn't show any player faces, causing us to worry if they'd suffer from the dreaded "Zombie Henman" effect that's plagued 3D tennis games since Virtua Tennis first swung a racquet. Now we have the first face shots, we can see how silly we...

Release date 'coming soon'
It seems like a long, long time since we first encountered Dungeon Defenders: in fact, it first hit our radars back in December 2010, and it's been six months since we interviewed the DunDef team. The game's road to release is nearing its final stop though, as Trendy Entertainment has announced we'll hear about a release...
News Little Big Planet Vita Trailer Showcases Robot Dinosaurs
Built from scrap

News Puddle Makes a Splash on PSN in November
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. The inevitable result of Move's motion controls and a game about fluids, you tilt the controller to funnel the liquids through a series of mazes, avoiding fire,...
News Gravity Daze Now Gravity Rush, New Screenshots and Trailer
Jump on in
Gravity Rush, previously known as Gravity Daze, is a PS Vita exclusive from Japan Studio, the devs that gave us such portable classics as Locoroco and Patapon.

News Wipeout is Coming to PlayStation Move
No, not the good one, sorry
We felt the same: when we read that Wipeout 2 is coming to PlayStation Move, we started imagining controlling futuristic racers with motion controllers. Then we read further down the announcement and saw it's a version of popular TV show Wipeout. Oh well. The holiday season game will use the Move controller to help guide...
News This is What Move Fitness Looks Like in Motion
Sony steps up
While the announcement of Move Fitness was a surprise to some, it really shouldn't be: Sony's lack of a fitness title has meant it's missed out on a lucrative market for PlayStation Move, but that will change later this year. Here's the official Gamescom trailer showing you just how much fun fitness can be when you've got PlayStation...

News Puss in Boots Grabs PlayStation Move Support
Become Zorro

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. Now 2K Sports is preparing to unleash NBA 2K12 and it's promising overhauled controls. For one thing, the game now features pointer support, allowing...
News Sega's Mystery PS Vita Game Re-appears

A water-based puzzle game with motion controls will sound familiar to readers of our sister site Nintendo Life, as last year saw the excellent Fluidity/Hydroventure on WiiWare.

News Bigben Brings Out Big Guns with Three New Move Games
Locked and loaded for E3
So far we've seen shooters rule the roost on PlayStation Move, with high profile Sony FPS titles like Killzone 3 and Resistance 3 stealing much of the limelight.

Using the PlayStation Eye camera you'll be able to see yourself on-screen at all times, a big improvement over Ubi's...
