At Sony’s E3 press conference last night, all was revealed about PlayStation Move – the new motion control technology for the PlayStation 3. In addition to showcasing a bunch of games that will either feature optional Move controls or be built specifically for Move, Sony also revealed the release date and pricing for PlayStation Move. In Europe, PlayStation Move will hit stores on September 15, and going by past trends, that should be the date for India as well, although we’re yet to get a confirmation on that from SCE India. The PlayStation Move will be available in multiple configurations and bundles, and a couple of Move peripherals were also announced.
