GDC/PlayStation Move

– Sony going after the Wii market
– Sony congratulated Nintendo at the beginning of their presentation for getting a new demographic, establishing motion control, etc.
– They they showed it, and it was basically just Wii motion
– The functions in game are identical
– The way Sony was pitching Move on stage was also pretty similar to the Wii
– Seems like a blatant copy, but it should have been expected
– Sony wants to attract the Wii audience when they are ready to move to the HD market
– Sony said that developing for the Move will be very similar to developing for Wii
– There are already some Wii ports, like Brunswick Bowling
– Capcom is huge on ports, Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles and Umbrella Chronicles could possibly head to the PS3
– Sony had copied what works before, like the PS2 controller was like the SNES controller with extra shoulder buttons

Melbourne-based game developer Tantalus today announced the imminent release of its first ever game for the Nintendo DSi™. Built from the ground up and exclusively for that platform, Drift Street International is the ultimate high-speed, white-knuckle street racing experience. Gamers will slide and boost their tightly tuned performance car around challenging city streets across the US, UK and Japan, in high-intensity midnight races. Drift Street International will be available for download in North America on March 22, with Europe and Australasia to follow.

Tantalus is one of the world’s foremost handheld racing developers, with a string of hits including multiple titles in the Cars and MX vs ATV series, and the now legendary Top Gear Rally on Game Boy Advance. Despite this impressive pedigree, CEO Tom Crago says Drift Street International represents the company’s greatest achievement yet. “To have Top Gear published by Nintendo and win a number of Game of the Year awards was a huge rush, but we all feel as though we’ve made something even more special with Drift Street International,” said Crago. “Visually, it stands apart from anything else out there, and in terms of car handling and gameplay it’s in a league of its own.”
