That chunky cable is going nowhere
The USB cable for the PlayStation Eye isn't the most attractive part of the Move set-up; wouldn't a wireless option be so much better? Well yes it would, if it were possible.
Game to use as-yet unannounced 3DS features
A portable, fully-equipped, 3D-enabled conversion of Super Street Fighter IV sounded too good to be true just six months ago, but here we are in the knowledge that Capcom is bringing Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition to the 3DS with all 35 characters intact. Will it be adding more to the mix? Producer Yoshinori Ono is reluctant to confirm or deny.RevoGamers: Will the 3DS version have any new content, like new characters or costumes?This interview was conducted on August 18th and Ono went on to say gamers would have to wait a month and a half for more information, which brings us neatly to the end of September, pointing to September 29th as the date we'll discover more than just the 3DS's release date and pricing.
Ono: I really want to tell you, but I can't (Laughs) You'll probably have to wait.
Enlightening interview at Edge
Dr Richard Marks, Sony's R&D wizard and head designer on PlayStation Move, may dream of a super-gory zombie game on Move but he's also an articulate and thoughtful kind of chap. An interview with Edge magazine about the development of Move has thrown up plenty of interesting discussion about the controller, the games and the system's closest rival.
Maybe next time
Whatever Naughty Dog is working on, whether Uncharted 3 or something completely different, it's already too far into development for PlayStation Move controls to make an appearance.

Flight Control HD is as well-travelled as its hand-drawn flight crew, starting life on the iPhone and iPod Touch before making it across to DSiWare and iPad. Now it's available on PSN in Europe (read our interview with Firemint to discover why it's not coming to North America) and fully compatible with Move. Does it belong on the big screen or is it best in the palm of your hand?
Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales and Marketing, is to leave the company on October 1st to take up a new role elsewhere. Although her new job is not known, it's not another games industry position.
Move would be worse off without rival
Kinect or Move? Move or Kinect? The two motion rivals seem locked in an eternal struggle to generate the most column inches in the gaming and mainstream press, but PlayStation head honcho Shuhei Yoshida is grateful it has a competitor in the field, as it wouldn't have been able to generate such interest on its own.Since we announced Move at E3 last year, I've always felt like we were lucky that Microsoft made such a big deal with Project Natal. In a broader sense, we are categorised as 'motion gaming' - if we were just doing Move, we wouldn't have had as much coverage and attention from media and consumers.Although Sony has shown itself adept at creating Kinect comparisons – check out Move vs. Stuff – the discussion between gamers about which motion control system is better is likely to rage for years.
Device surprisingly fixable
iFixit is dubbed a "free repair manual", showing readers how to take apart – and more importantly, put back together – a wide range of technological devices. One of its latest victims is the PlayStation Move controller, which fares rather well, actually.
