Sports Champions
About the Game
Sports Champions is a compilation action-sports title meant to show off Sony's PlayStation Move motion controller in a similar vein to the Wii's Wii Sports . It contains a total of 6 sporting events that can be played either alone or with up to three friends. Disc Golf - The goal of this game is to accurately throw a disc into a glowing pillar laying somewhere around the course.
Gameplay & Core Systems
The move controller detects everything from the angle of the disc to the power of your throw. Armed with a sword and shield your goal is to completely lower you opponents health before they do the same to you or before time runs out. Properly blocking fills up a special meter that once filled allows you to unleash a powerful combo attack. This can be played with either one or two motion controllers. The move controller allows you to feel like an archer and practice your accuracy skills.
