Does it seem odd to anyone else to want to hold a gun, pointed at another gun, pointed at the things you want to die?
Unless it's a guncon kinda game, I guess.

Yes because nothing is more authentic than a plastic fisher price sniper rifle that you use 2 feet away from the tv screen.

Also is it just me or does it look like the Sega Menecer when they break it down.

At :54 they show someone doing one of two things: being absolutely terrible at an FPS, or using the Move and COMPLETELY missing a target dead in front of the player.
I kinda laughed at that.

I am positive this beast supports dynamic zoom too...
zoom 3x : take a step closer to the screen
zoom 10x : take 3 steps closer to the screen

Mimicking recoil in shotgun mode (1:03) is optional :-)

What is the best gun for the Move?

@PSN StaticShock
Sharpshooter is definitely the one i'm getting. the videos look nice and it's a Sony product so it will probably be supported in more of their games (i know SOCOM 4 has support and i'm hoping Resistance 3 does as well).

Why is Black and Yellow playing in the background?

Is anyone else disappointed that we're supposed to use our imagination with the Wii and Move controllers yet somehow there is still money to be made in the peripheral business?

@Lerkero i don't really think one of the selling points for Move is "imagination". If anything, it'd be about immersion into the game, and being able to come more closely to actually holding a gun, even if only for the sake of comfort and aiming stability, would be more useful than imagination

Begin the plastic attachment montage (0:40)!
Be sure to make it look as authentic as possible!

My favourite part was at 0:10 when he starts to kill the people on his own team.
(just noticed, if you look at the bottom right of the screen, you can make out the PSN ID of CTA lol)

at least it has a novel way of making that so far uber useless thing I own called the Move Navigation Controller.

I don't get this "article."
WHY is it not "the best PlayStation Move attachment by a long shot"? Just because it looks ridiculous? What is then? More insight in the comments than this.

Been looking into a lot of shooting attachments for the PS Move, but everything has been a shell just like for the Wii controller. I'm very surprised no one has mentioned the PlayStation Sharpshooter. Unlike the other its add functions , it utilizes the data port on the Move and has the shotgun pump, rate of fire selector, reload through opening and slamming a clip back in, extend-able stock, start/select/square+triangle buttons on both sides. That there is the best shooting attachment you can get for the PS Move.
