Pleased to see this joining the elite range of games that is simply better with Kinect.

Looking forward to trying it out.

"you are able to do so with your voice through Kinect functionality"

So its basically just the microphone ? Do people think this kind of functionality is new? This was done years ago on the original Xbox and the PS2!

Perjoss4979d ago

You're right, but hardly any other companies seem to be taking advantage of this useful feature so bring it on.

fossilfern4979d ago

Yeah but you could just buy a 360 headset for like £10 while a Kinect costs nearly £100...

Not just a Mic. Kinect can use It's own processor and the command software is built in to kinect/360 avoiding wasting system resources for the game. Devs have to do much less to bring a experience without having to wear head gear

One day voice in gaming will be as common as save files, triggers and analog sticks.

But there is no processor in the Kinect thats the thing. And I very much doubt having voice commands puts any sort of stress on the CPU, if the PS2 could handle it then theres no need to have this exclusively on kinect.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted is still iconic mainly due to its corny storyline, its superb gameplay, and the unforgettable BMW M3 GTR.
