Nine Million Playstation Moves Shipped Since Launch

Sony have released the latest shipping figures on their motion control peripheral the Playstation Move. According to the Japanese electronics giant, they have shipped nine million Playstation Moves. This figure goes back to the release of the Playstation Move, which was September 2010. In addition to the total units shipped since launch, Sony also released a figure of one million units since April, which is in a time period of seven months.

This isn’t that great of a figure, having one million shipped in a seven month period, compared to eight million units shipped from launch to April, which would suggest that the Move is not selling to expectations. This could be down to a lack of software within that period of time. However, the Move has had a resurgence of software recently released, which should pick up sales to an extent. The Move is a great peripheral for the Playstation 3 with software for both the casual gamer and the more hardcore gamer.

Josh is the name, writing is my game... well my degree will say that. But, when uni gets me down (and it does), there is no better way that to grab a chair, sit back and slicing up some DarkspawnI started my gaming interest back in the good old 16 bit era with the Sega Mega Drive and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. I was roughly five years old. To this day I still try to fire up the dusty companion and speed through the wacky and bright levels, jumping on some Badniks, collecting those damn Chaos Emeralds. Then I moved onto Sony's disk based console the Playstation (thanks to my uncle). Since then I have picked up each of Sony's consoles from the 5th to current generation that has been released in Australia (with more to come).In terms of writing about games, I am quite new to the field. I started out late last year with my own blog before deciding to move to greener pastures. I have written a few reviews for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable. Features as well. I hope I can flex my muscles while writing with Capsule Computers.If I'm not gaming, however, I'm writing narratives. I am currently trying to kickstart a high fantasy novel (which, hopefully, turns into a complex RPG) that I want done in five years or so. My passion of writing has been there for a long time and has flourished as I grew. I'm into the fantasy genre, both games and novels, and thoroughly enjoy a deep and complex RPG, whether it comes from the East or West.Oh and anime is awesome!
