PlayStation Move 'sharp shooter' gun to occupy living room corners this February

Sony has announced that a PlayStation Move gun attachment peripheral thing will be released alongside Killzone 3 this February. The PS1-ish looking $39.99 add-on to the $99.99 Move bundle will Super Scopeify shooters like Killzone 3, SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy SEALs and Dead Space Extraction.

"The PlayStation Move sharp shooter provides the most intuitive and immersive control experience for shooter games," says Sony's press release. Perhaps "intuimmersive" should beSony's new Move tag line. But it isn't just intuimmersive:

"The streamlined design features easily accessible buttons, responsive digital trigger, realistic pump-action, firing mode selector, adjustable shoulder stock and convenient access to the navigation controller, allowing gamers to take aim and move into the firefight for hours of comfortable and engaging gameplay."

It's also comforgaging! We suppose it looks ergonomic enough, andgenerally cool, if sort of bland.Though the glowing Move ball sticking out of the end screams "NERF."
