I have played a section where I was in a pod following some troopers, somewhere in a forrest. It was horrible: the input lag was about half of a second, you could not fire yourself or aim for that matter (all automated), the graphics were poor (hell, I was flying through trees at some points, and I mean through the actual trees). It just didn't work. Kinect is not made for gaming, or better, it is not yet capable of doing that. The next Xbox is rumoured to have Kinect 2.0 built into the console.

No wonder why Gears Kinect was cancelled. As droezelke said - it's not for gaming. They should use it only for navigation of dashboard and some games menus - nothing more than that.

There not doing it right..
kinect would be brilliant if playing GR and all you did was rais your had and your men stopped circle your finger and there on you again.. blah blah blah

I'M HAN SOLO I'M HAN SOLO
I still cant quite understand how they could have done such a thing

I don't agree really. There are certainly examples of kinect being great when used right, and there is a lot of promise in games that use Kinect to enhance the gamepad experience. Steel Battalion and Skyrim (just announced Kinect Voice support) are both full on real ass games for the "hardcore" crowd that look to use Kinect in some genuinely interesting and enjoyable ways.

poor poor Driftwood. The things he does for us. My thoughts go with you Driftwood.

That's very kind of you. :D

On the bright side, tomorrow, you will get some Witcher 2 videos, 360 version. :)

This is a great game (except for the duels, why the hell aren't they the same as the rest of the lightsaber combat??) but go jump and the bandwaggon and bash away...This is what us hardcore gamers who actually own a device that is the future of videogames have to put up with. There is no (as in no more than a joypad) lag in that section and it's a speeder bike not a pod. So you lied twice, lol! Yes it autofires (I'd prefer manual firing but oh well) and there's some autoaiming when you aim close to the target unfortunately which they shouldn't have done or at least only do it if you pick Casual difficulty but that section is still a lot of fun. The thing is all these lies can easily be proved wrong, but people keep lying anyway because they know the gullible will believe anything bad about Kinect and its games.

"This is what us hardcore gamers who actually own a device that is the future of videogames have to put up with."

Hahahaha, pure funny.

Explain why it isn't the future of videogames then? Or are you laughing because it's so obvious that it's hilarious how some people are too stupid to see it?

I think the word "hardcore" doesnt go hand in had with anything Kinect IMO.

Thats funny.

And the future of videogames, thats funny too in a bad way.

God damnit!!

We been through this so many times I dont like to repeat myself, even when its so obvious.

Yea.. we're too stupid to see all of the awesome hardcore experiences designed around kinect. Keep that candle burnin, I'm sure they'll come eventually.

That Han Solo dance is just too damn hardcore for me.What's really remarkable is how tarnished the brand is, that this can't actually hurt it anymore than it's already been damaged. :)

If it's so obvious then it should be easy for you to say. I can easily say why it is but I'll wait for your answer, you can give up if you can't think of anything though and I'll give my answer then too.

Can you tell us why it's the future of gaming, ya know, without sounding ridiculous?

It's called a parody and the Galactic Dance Off mode is intentially funny. Obviously there are more people without any sense of humour than I thought.

Why waste my time to explain something when majority here is having the same opinion. They do the talking and I just nod in agreement.
The only waste I would do is to laugh at that comment because it was worth it lol

Well I'll give Sath a few minutes at least to answer, he deserves a chance afterall.

No, that was a challenge for you. What makes you think that kinect is "hardcore?"

He bought it, hence has to justify the purchase. That it the only logical explination....

LOL dont mention my name as an excuse for no answer. I am done here, I got my enjoyment by laughing at your comment so leave me out of it and answer Grift instead.

OK, you've answered and basically given up without wanting to admit it so here's my brief answer. Kinect allows unprecedented freedom in game design thanks to being able to have full body control (although they don't have to use the full body and yes Kinect games can be made that work sitting down, like the podracing in Kinect Star Wars for example) in 3D space. Before anyone says "BUTTT IT GOT NOOOOO BUTTONZZZZ!!!!!!" let me tell you a little secret, when you buy a Kinect Microsoft don't come to your house and take all your joypads away. No, seriously it's true! So developers can make games that combine Kinect AND joypads, like Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor for example. Games can be made that just weren't possible before, like Michael Jackson: The Experience for example or indeed any dancing game with full body tracking, but I'm not into dancing games except the MJ one. What also makes Kinect the future of videogames is that the next Xbox will almost definitely come bundled with a version of Kinect (hopefully Kinect 2) so expect all of the next-gen Xbox games to feature Kinect support in some kind of way, whether it's full Kinect support or at the very least things like the voice support in Mass Effect 3. See, that was pretty easy, I didn't exactly have to rack my brain to type that.

Microsoft, hire this man!

LOL

I can tell you didn't rack your brain to type that. Michael Jackson's dancing game is prime evidence of the hardcore nature of this platform.

Well I do have have loads of ideas for Kinect games that any developer can have for free if they want, as long as they agree to use them for Kinect games. I just want to see more Kinect games made and be able to actually play the games I've got in my head. I actually had an idea for a Michael Jackson dancing game as soon as "Project Natal" was revealed so that wish sort of came true, I say sort of as it Ubisoft's game wasn't 100% the same as my idea but it's still cool.
