Sony Renames Heroes On The Move

Apparently the Heroes on the Move name for Sony's upcoming game featuring Ratchet, Jak, and Sly Cooper wasn't up to snuff. What could it all mean? What system could the game possibly be for?! The minds at Sony have cleared any fog surrounding the title by changing the name to PlayStation Move Heroes.

Ok, that sounds like Mii/mini's, not a game :(.

[Active Reload]

So its not a Move game? If it is, it'd be cool if its in the first person perspective.

[Active Reload]

Dude, I'm far from a PS3 fanboy, but I do appreciate its offerings.

[gaffyh]

Good name change imo, makes much more sense because Heroes on the Move can be a little ambiguous, whereas PlayStation Move Heroes tells you that it definitely is PS Move only.

[MasterChief3624]

Active Reload can't read. Sad day. :P

[mikeslemonade]

Whatever it's going to be aimed for kids.

[GWAVE]

The game concept sounds cool. The name does not.

[Christopher]

Much preferred the title of Heroes On The Move. This new name makes it seem too much like you're trying to shove the word PlayStation down your customer's throat. It's like Microsoft putting Xbox in the name of game titles.

I suggest those who don't like it should provide necessary feedback so they can change it back. It was kind of perfect before, IMHO.

Why bring up Sony's competitor in this?

[JoeReno]

No its like adding kinect to everything....

Oh wait.

[jp_footy2]

I gave you bubbles joereno because you deserve them.

[Christopher]

*** Why bring up Sony's competitor in this? ***

Why not? I'm not derogatory towards the action? I'm derogatory towards the idiocy of putting the name of the console in the title. This isn't some stand-alone app, like PlayStation Text Editor or PlayStation OS, it's a PlayStation game with its own title.

I think the fact that it's only available on the PS3 is enough to inform us of where it can be played.

[Active Reload]

I don't know, I guess I just like coming to a PS3 article and only reading about...PS3.

[Christopher]

That makes no sense. One of the main elements of presenting arguments is in comparison. The best comparison for the PlayStation is the Xbox 360. I'm not saying we should compare games here, but business decisions. Same way we compare XBL to PSN.

[JoeReno]

@jp_footy2

Thanks man

[No FanS Land]

it's like adding N64 to every game.

[Otheros00]

Nintendo does it a lot.
Examples: Wii sports, super mario 64, star fox 64, etc.

[dragunrising]

While I agree, Nintendo and partners have put "DS" into half the games released for that system. Its nothing new.

[badz149]

while I also agree but that's Nintendo, this is Sony! even the flagship title of MOVE which is the Sports Champions has no MOVE in its name, so why should this heroes game? Playstation MOVE heroes? from 1 to 10, that name scores 2!

Heroes on the MOVE sounds so much better! don't get me wrong, I still love the offerings and will buy the game regardless but the new name just feels YUCK!

[FACTUAL evidence]

League of extraordinary heroes.

[RankFTW]

No they shouldn't.

[vhero]

What is the point of this sentence in the article "What system could the game possibly be for?!" Trying to spout something that's not there are they?? Wouldn't be the first time GI have spread crap like that though.

[StandardPost]

I dont get it. Both names are boring.

[goosepoose]

you guys do know you discussing the title of a "potential" shovelware game. its game that contains 50 mini games. oh wait its 50 mini move controller games.you throw balls around into hoops. cool. i dont think any of you are going to buy this game.

doesnt matter what they change it to. but since we so creative and know all the right moves, i prefer "the downfall of great heroes".

"Hey, let's take this game that has a pretty witty title and give it the worst possible title we can think of!" - Sony Executive.

[TheLastGuardian]

Heroes on the Move sounded better but It's the gameplay that matters. I'll be getting this game.

[nix]

i agree pirate..

[plb]

Was perfect before. Now not so much.

[MaxOpower]

First the make Sly not Cel-shaded, and now they change the name!

[jukins]

hmm heroes on the move sounded better and incorporated ps move in the title now it sounds kinda like a desperate attempt to make sure ppl know you can use the move on it

[TheColbertinator]

Stupid game title

[T3mpr1x]

It's not really that much worse, but then I don't really care what they call it. I just hope they get Ratchet's model a bit more accurate...

[trounbyfire]

sony has enough characters to have a diverse roster and people like 2d fighters

[TronEOL]

I want a game like this so bad it's ridiculous.
I'm sure it'd be the best fighting game on PS3, hands down.

Now I know Marvel VS Capcom 3 would be out, but they could make the PS3 version of SSB a more casual experience. Something any gamer can get into and have fun with. Whereas MvC3 would be for the more hardcore fighting fanbase.

Come on, Sony. Get on this idea now.

[CobraKai]

Remember Fighter's Megamix on the Sega Saturn. I loved that game. It came out LONG before Super Smash Brothers yet Nintendo got all love for the idea of an "All Star" fighting game. WTF?

[ndibu]

Where to?

[Beahmscream]

Bahahaha pathetic.

[Hazmat13]

kinda like your life.

[Tikicobra]

It just got worse.

[Motorola]

you play games for titles?

[Tikicobra]

The game looked bad already. Making the title worse isn't helping anything.

[Figboy]

so far, it's the forerunner for actually convincing me to get PlayStation MOVE.

i've been waiting for a game featuring Jak, Sly, and Ratchet for a console generation now. i'm keeping my eye on this one.

although, am i the only one kind of wishing that Ratchet and Clank: All for One was Heroes on the Move, instead (that is, that the game play of All 4 One, was the game play of Heroes on the Move?)?

[Relientk77]

ehh I'm not really a fan of either title, but the original title was better

[randommix91]

My heroes on the move game would be this!

[IRetrouk]

lmao, thats very good, bubbles to you sir.

[Cajun Chicken]

Crap name. CHANGE IT BACK.

[ngecenk]

prefer heroes on the move, but hey, ps move heroes has a better marketing value for the ps move

[CobraKai]

PlayStation Heroes would be better.

[Bounkass]

"Let's rename the fox, elf and the chipmunk! FUCK Gran Turismo 5!"

[SexyPrawns]

I just hope it plays well.

Naughty Dog, Insomniac, and Sucker Punch are not involved...so, I'm slightly worried.

[chazjamie]

its a mini game collection. i am not sure why anyone here is interested in this game. its shovelware. its an exclusive, but exclusive shovelware. and this is a kids game, a real kids game meaning its competing with mario soccer and not uncharted 2.

[blackburn5]

I would love to see this work out for the best. I want to see how their various personalities interact with each other. i especially want to see a conversation between Clank and Daxter. that should be hilarious. But you know this should have been a game like All 4 one is . That would be epic. A four player co-op with your favorite Sony mascots. You could even get the side kicks, supporting characters and secondary characters involved. Murray, Carlita, Asmith, all the girls for Jax and Daxter etc.

[ShiftyLookingCow]

Dang, this is probably among the worst blunders Sony made. Heroes on the Move was a great name. I hope they dont rename GT5 as the The Playstation Driving Game.

[heyheyhey]

why not just conjoin the two and go for Playstation Heroes on The Move? i like the idea of there being a game that categorically informs you it's about PS heores, but i also liked the old game

[SuperStrokey1123]

I dont really see the issue here...

[redDevil87]

Sounds like a spinoff off of DDR now

[GoldPS3]

Heroes On The Move sounds better to me but I really don't care if it's changed becuz I'm still getting the game no matter what.
