I have no interest in any motion-sensing tech for my games at all:  Wii, Natal, or the Move.  Though if I had to absolutely pick one on my life, it'd probably be the Move.  I think Natal is neat tech but not for video games, and the Move is just a logical refinement of the Wii really.
 
That said, I love all the Kevin Butler videos anyway, even if I don't care about the product he is pimping here.

Kevin Butler is the best thing that Sony has ever done as far as advertising goes.

I love how the PS3 on the shelf is being propped up by an awkward wedge to make it more visible.

Meh. I could not care less about the Playstation move. I really don't understand how they can make fun of the Wii which was the reason they are putting so much effort into the motion controller.

Kevin just convinced me to buy Move, eventhough I do not own a PS3. That's right, that's the power of Kevin.

MS needs to hurry up and come up with a controller that works with Natal if they're gonna compete. Hopefully with the full input set (analog trigger, clickable analog stick, shoulder button, and four face buttons arranged in a plus pattern... for each hand) for a change.

Say what you want about Sony, but no other entertainment company markets like they do.

If Natal lets me pretend my hand is a gun then I am so there. Something tells me it can't recognise individual digits though. :(

okay i personaly thing the trailer was really bad the allthough the diss at wii was pretty good.
the ps move is gonna fail or atleast not make a big difference. i see it as a way to make wii games only better in both quality and control (and if they could get just 1/4 of the wii owners over then its gonna be interesting) im proberly gonna get thing just to fool around with it and then not touch it again.
hope the best expect the worst. 
atleast its gonna be better then the xbox pedofil simulator called the natal (all xbox has to do is make an option so you can swap milo out with a japanese manga chick in school chloths and they will finaly have a chance in asia)

I stopped watching this video just under the minute mark. Possibly the stupidest promo I've ever seen for any product ever. 
 
On a side note, I'd love to see an animated GIF of Butler flailing his arms like that.

This was hands down one of the best Sony commercials I've ever seen. I'm skeptical of all motion control gimmicks, but the interpretations on both the Wii and Natal was pretty damn hilarious.

The Kevin Butler commercials are awesome. I loved the one for MLB '10: The Show with Joe Mauer. I'm hoping there will be ones for ModNation Racers and, of course, God Of War 3.
