Colour! Rainbows! Moustaches!
Ape Escape Fury Fury is an on-rails game that features a net, not a gun: your task is to round-up all the monkeys using your keeper's prowess, grabbing them in your net, naturally controlled by PlayStation Move.

You may not realise this, but the official European PlayStation Blog is just one arm of Sony Europe's communication empire: it also runs localised blogs for individual territories, with the German wing recently running a competition for one talented individual to win a Playstation Move Starter Pack and five games.
Happy holidays and mystic quests
The past two weeks have seen high profile downloadable releases in both shapely and spiny forms, so whilst this week lacks a true flagship title it does offer two new Nintendo-published titles and the scheduled Virtual Console download.
Contra, PES, Metal Gear Solid and... Frogger
That long list of third-party 3DS titles contained plenty of mouthwatering prospects from countless publishers, but one title that particularly stood out was the prospect of a new Contra title from Konami. Now the Japanese firm has announced it'll be bringing the run-and-gun epic to Europe, alongside three other 3D titles.
This just in: Nintendo advertising campaign works
Never let it be said that teaming a completely harmless boyband with a family-friendly video game doesn't work. Kiddie favourite boppers JLS have clearly been doing sterling work in promoting Wii Party, as the game leaps six places to number four in the UK chart.

Now we've had a month in Move's company, it's a good time to take stock of the controller's impact and its future prospects.
