Feature How a Picnic Shaped the Development of Sports Champions and Its Sequel
Motion in the ocean
Despite the device being on the market for over two years now, few developers have managed to get the same precision out of the PlayStation Move as Zindagi Games. The second-party studio – which is based in the heart of sunny California – describes itself as a motion control specialist, having already shipped three top titles...
News Zindagi Reveals Sports Champions 2
What took so long?
If there's one Move game everyone liked, it's Sports Champions, so it's excellent news that Zindagi Games and Sony San Diego Studios are working together on Sports Champions 2 for PlayStation Move.

First Impressions Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest
Good job, Zindagi
It probably shouldn’t be funny to watch a guy try to use a digital bow and arrow unsuccessfully for a good five minutes. That’s exactly the scenario we were faced with when taking a peek at Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest, the latest PlayStation Move title from Sports Champions developer Zindagi Games. It would have been a...
First Impressions Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest on PS3
Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest is Sports Champions
Make no mistake, this is a brand new PlayStation Move-exclusive title with its own characters and narrative, but at its core it's built upon the same fundamentals that developer Zindagi Games founded in last year's motion controlled sports compilation. Our demo opens in a vast training arena. It's...
News Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest Trailer Rattles Them Bones
Beep beep, ribby ribby
Zindagi Games' next title after the top notch Sports Champions isn't the expected sequel: instead it's the co-operative adventure Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest, and here's the first trailer. Expect to see Deadmund making his rib-tickling appearance on PlayStation 3 later in the year.
News Zindagi's New Game is Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest
Puns ahoy!
It's not the Sports Champions sequel we were expecting, but Zindagi's new game looks to be an entertaining outing in its own right. Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest has been dubbed an "action adventure shooter", covering most bases in one deft stroke, but from the press release it sounds like a cross between Medievil and the...
E3 2011 Medieval Moves Deadmund's Quest Announced For PlayStation Move
Zindagi Games is not developing the PlayStation Move enabled tennis game we dreamed of, it is instead working on what looks to be an updated iteration of Sorcery
Medieval Moves: Deadmund's Quest is an action game taking full advantage of Sony's motion controller in a whimsical world. Alas, it has nothing to with Sony Cambridge's Medieval franchise...
Feature Dream E3 Announcements: Zindagi Games Announce True PlayStation Move Tennis Title
Regular readers will know we have a minor obsession with tennis games
We're probably one of the few video game blogs that actually discusses tennis games on a regular basis. For that, we apologise to our non-tennis fan readers — but just give us 1,000 more words to talk about one of our dream E3 announcements: a PlayStation Move tennis game...
Feature Disc Golf World Champions Doss and Jenkins Play Sports Champions Disc Golf Too
Exclusive video and interview inside
When PlayStation Move launched there was one game that truly showed off its impressive 1:1 controls: Sports Champions. The game featured multiple sports, each using Move in its own unique way. One of the sports stood out from the rest, and that was Disc Golf: the precision and accuracy of Move was able to...
Rumour Sports Champions Developer To Prove The Potential Of PlayStation Move For A Second Time?
Sports Champions is one of the most heavily under-rated releases of 2010 in our opinion
It's not that the game scored unfavourably, it's just that it didn't manage to register on the radar of most players. Which is a deep shame, because as far as we're concerned, the sports compilation's interpretation of table-tennis is hands-down the most accurate...
News New Characters Join The Sports Champions Roster This Week
Cast your mind back to E3 2009 when Sony demoed the "PlayStation Motion Controller"
You may remember some tech demonstrations involving skeletons and specters. The PlayStation Motion Controller eventually became the PlayStation Move, and those tech demonstrations formed the basis of Sports Champions. But what of the skeletons and specters? Sony's...
Feature Overlooking The Depth In Sports Champions -- "Twiggy" The Push Square Opinionator
I've spent a good chunk of my week playing table-tennis
Don't be silly, I've not risked my life sharing the Youth Club's beaten down excuse for a table-tennis table with a group of hoods — I've been playing the sport in my living room via PlayStation Move. I've always been a fan of motion controls and, in particular, motion controlled sports...
Feature Five DLC Characters We'd Love To See Added To Sports Champions
Our biggest complaint with the excellent Sports Champions is that on a presentation level it's pretty flat
Let's be honest here, who is going to remember what Kenji and Giselle look like? Zindagi might have done an excellent job programming personality into the AI opponents, but their art team weren't on form designing the characters. That's fine,...
Feature PlayStation Move Reviews Are Go-Go-Go, Largely Very Positive
Today is the day of reckoning
Just a year after the PlayStation 3 Slim's launch here in Europe, Sony's got another big day ahead of them. The PlayStation Move is out in the wild, and Sony's let some of the big publications go knee-deep with impressions. On the whole, everything's looking pretty positive for Sony's motion controller. Joystiq describe...
News Sony: There Are Plans For Sports Champions DLC
Sony's confirmed on the PlayStation Blog that "there are plans" to bring DLC to the excellent Sports Champions
According to one of the game's producers, Jeremy Ray, the team will be "announcing details soon". Whether or not the DLC will stretch to new sports, we're uncertain. We'd hazard the added content will focus on adding characters,...
First Impressions Sports Champions on PlayStation 3
Admittedly, Sports Champions has about as much charm as a limp sock
But having got hands-on time with the compilation's table tennis game, we're not sure it matters. That's because PlayStation Move works; this is not a device playing on empty promises and faked lifestyle commercials - it does what Sony have always said it will: track your movements...
