PS Move Sharpshooter peripheral for Killzone 3 and SOCOM 4

Sony makes a play for motion controller domination with the Socom 4 bundle pack.In my mind, I believe that the first motion based console/peripheral that can make a good game (for example an FPS) will dominate.  Both the PS Move and the Kinect have pumped out a bit of shovelware shortly after being released.  Now the meat and potatoes are starting to arrive.

Killzone 3 was just released this month and at the same time came the most beautiful peripheral I’ve seen since the Super Scope.

We've come a long way since the Sega Menacer gun.

One of the more normal looking gun peripheral I’ve seen to date with a telescoping stock and a top rail for mounting your acog or red dot sights.  It also incorporates a pump action front grip for things such as an m203 or masterkey attachment in game.  It currently runs for $39.99 and comes with a sticker pack for Killzone 3 and SOCOM 4.  But if you can be patient til April you can get the Sharpshooter gun, a PS Move Motion controller, a Navigation controller, the PS Eye, and SOCOM 4 for only $150.  If you were to pay for the pieces individually, you’d be looking at about $220.

The video is a good up close look at the gun and all the details incorporated in using it for Killzone 3 including swinging the gun for a melee attack.  Epic.
