Instead of selling PlayStation Move with Sports Champions, Japan is getting Beat Sketchers (previously known as Sing & Draw) with their PlayStation Move starter kit.
Loot Ninja: "There haven’t been too many PlayStation Move titles that are must-buy games. Sports Champions does a great job of showing off the high levels of precision capable with Move and Tumble couples that with fun puzzle solving, but past that, I haven’t seen any terrific games just yet. Beat Sketcher falls into the that same category — a PlayStation Network game that is more tech demo than anything else."
PSi: "Beat Sketchers harnesses the power of the PlayStation Move and the PlayStation Eye to create an interactive drawing system which allows you to draw in the air and have your artistic creations show up on your television. Thanks to the PlayStation Eye, this can be done over the imagery of your room, with special effect filters, if desired. In Creation Mode, the graphics are, quite frankly, up to your own creation, but you get a nice range of artistic tools with which to play."
Beat Sketcher is an intriguing game – jumping straight into it you may be fooled into thinking it’s simply a game that shows off the perfect accuracy of PlayStation Move by turning your TV screen into a canvas, allowing you to doodle and paint to your heart’s content. After a short while, though, you realise that you’re not just drawing naughty pictures but making music.
Very intresting. I can see kids drawing all sorts of doodles on the screen especially the dinosaur eating someone's head or drawing on someone's face. Even I can see myself getting a laugh off this. But wait. Scaning real life things and putting them into the game? Wasn't Kinect supposed to be able to do at some point? Hmmmmm....
