While Tiger Woods may have lost the eye of the tiger a bit this season, you can still play a few rounds with the pro on the PlayStation Move. Sony Computer Entertainment America announced the availability of the limited edition PlayStation Move Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 12: Masters Bundle, which will tee off in stores this week. This bundle combines the PlayStation Move motion controller, the PlayStation Eye and the thrill of EA SPORTS’ Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 12: The Masters on Blu-ray disc ($99.99 MSRP).
“PlayStation Move was designed to enable experiences that put players directly in the game. Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 12: The Masters is a title that takes full advantage of the realistic and immersive feeling PlayStation Move provides,” said Scott A. Steinberg, vice president, product marketing, SCEA “We’re always looking for ways to offer more value to our consumers and we’re very excited to be partnering with EA SPORTS to deliver this comprehensive bundle.”
The bundle will be available while supplies last, so you might want to get your Move on!

Move over Sony PlayStation Move, the Xbox 360 Kinect motion control system is seriously moving. This week Microsoft announced that it has sold more than 10 million Kinect motion-sensing game system units worldwide in just the four months since it was released.
That makes it the fastest-selling consumer device on record. The infrared camera add-on for the Xbox 360 game console is priced at $150, and has steadily outpaced Sony’s competing Move device. But let’s not move too fast.
Sony had previously noted sales of 4.1 million units of the Move in its first two months, and still has not taken into account holiday sales. So what is clear is that consumers are looking to get moving with video games and for that we can’t complain.

- Do you Wannabe in better shape?
When we first read that a former Spice Girl wanted to do a fitness game we assumed it would be Sporty Spice. Then we read it was Mel B and our thoughts were confirmed, but actually Melanie Chisholm, a.k.a. Mel C, is the former Sporty Spice. Melanie Brown, or Mel B, a.k.a. Scary Spice is the one who is actually going to be working on a title for the Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360 Kinect and PlayStation 3 Move.
“I have always been passionate about videogames and then when I grew up my preferences moved towards fitness and wellbeing.” she said in a press release. “Today I can finally mix together my two big passions, it’s been like a dream.”
The title from Black Bean Games will feature Brown as a celebrity trainer in Get Fit. It will build on the publisher’s previous Fitness First titles and will feature six types of aerobic disciplines and more than 100 exercises. The Brown fitness game will arrive for the holidays

One big problem with some workout games is that you need to be in the mood to work out. That’s why a good alternative can be to dance, and Zumba Fitness will get you moving. The company already has a full line of Latin dance and reggae flavored DVDs, and this year at E3 Majesco announced plans to bring the unique fitness program to the video game world.
In Zumba Fitness players can learn and perfect nine different dance styles, ranging from salsa to hip-hop to rumba and reggaeton. The dance game will be accessible to all ages and feature a “learn to steps” training, plus beginner, intermediate and advanced routines. The game will be compatible with Kinect for the Microsoft Xbox 360 for two player fun, plus a four player version for either the Nintendo Wii or the PlayStation 3 Move. Zumba Fitness will arrive this holidays, so get shaking.
