The girl was simply saying what she memorised from a script.

When Milo says: "lets go fishing"

Then girl says: "ok"

Its called acting.

To have a computer know exactly what you are talking about, it has to have the ability to REASON first. Trust me buddy, even the fastest SUPER computers from IBM and CELL COMBINED cant reason, yet.

They can crunch numbers faster than anything. But reasoning is on a whole different level and may take up to 50-100 years before we see anything articifical that understands, reasons, reacts, and talks back.

If Milo can, we would be fighting of terminators by now.

Milo is as fake as Natal, the vaporware.

Its John Henry.

One more step towards Judgment Day

Check the playstation boo boys out, all thats been posted on this site is anti PROJECT NATAL posts and damage control articles, I think some Japanese people are getting upset because the only thing they have to answer the most advanced gaming motion controller and next gen "minority report" controls is a ps1 control pad that wiggles abit.

First we have the paedo crap about it, now we are getting "Its fake stories", jesus wept its pathetic. IGN have seen Project Natal behind closed doors, does this mean they have been paid off and are lying???

Milo's (to quote Pinocchio) a real boy!

As a PS3 owner (have to say that as a disclaimer), I was amazed by the interaction. When she said "you're in front of thousands of people" and he replies "thousands of people?" I wondered if the interaction could really be that deep, but if it is, that is amazing.

And this is Lionhead we're talking about!

lol

He's creepy

Who the fvck is Milo?

..

but want think am glad is that i haven't seen any HHG articles lol but wait till Sunday he is going be like omg omg to everything and omg omg omfg lol omg

Wow seriously people say the media is bias against Sony. It's getting ridiculious now. OF course it was pre-sripted but it's still cool non-the-less. It's not that it's real, is that it gives the illusion that it's real.

It's about verisimilitude, that's all.

Microsoft has its own Killzone 2 trailer situation.

hahaha.

Need to watch the thing again, but my impression was that it was rather simple event-based demo. The 'fancy' stuff is that instead of clicking yes/no or typing your name, or whatever, it uses the camera to interact. But it seems like a bunch of scripted events that simply hides behind a high tech interface...

I'm curious to see what happen if you say "F**k you Milo."

oh wait.. the scripted AI will say. "Fine thanks."

O.o nice one MS

You will show only fake things

Only Xbox 360 provides the latest and hottest AAA award winning games and features these holidays and into the forseeable future. Xbox 360 at E3 2009 has changed the history of gaming and the world together by breaking down the barriers between consumers and getting intimate with their digital lifestyles.

Milo and Project Natal are examples of how Xbox 360 is changing the way we use home entertainment forever, making history with the worlds first truly interactive, living, breathing digital person.

Sony and the PS3 have been made to look out of touch and last generation, the PS3 is a dinosaur that is going to meet a swift death in 2010. Enjoy your fandroids Sixaxis while we Xbox 360 enthusiasts live in the future of home entertainment.

LOL coming from a PS3 site. Your so desperate.....

I think this is a great idea from MS. Hopefully we see this used in alot of games. the reason why so many people are so negative about it. Is because it didn't come from Sony.

ehm is there any reason my reply got deleted, ???

i said i love the concept i love the tech and only critised molyneuxs kinda hype talk ?

so why was it deleted then ?

That was too much to absorb, next time trim the fat off your lie, and tell us how you really feel.

Everything with Peter. A) making promises. B) making promises. C) making promises. D) promises that are too ambitious. E) promises are too good to be true. ,all of the above,TAKE IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT.

I think Sony's "motion controller" will be a cross between the PSEye and the WiiMote. I mean the PSEye has tech very similar to Natal, although not as comprehensive. The SixAxis control has tech similar to the WiiMote, just not as comprehensive. So why not combine the two techs? Anyway... Milo is interesting technology which could *if used right* make for amazing game experiences.

Putting that aside, who will actually buy this? Can't see much audience for this game... They should go with the porn game as the Eurogamer interview suggests... Now, I could see big audience for that!

CrapBox 360 didn't win sh1t sorry you guys make it sound that they made a big announcement which they didn't you guys cant even play as snake and plus its not exclusive and you moronic crapbox 360 fans always thought the game is a movie!.

Milo was probably true , but the demo was definitely acted/staged .

I wouldnt care for that part anyway , what everyone should wonder worry about it : "where is the gaming part ?" .

This doesnt help my eternal distrust of Molyneux . It was a bloody great tech demo , but that's it , a tech demo .

It was the weakest part imo of an otherwise quite good conference .

imagine the movie Mirrors only as a game using this technology, a interative horror game where you can interact with everything and characters in the mirrors can speak and interact with you, when the tone of your voice and facial expression indicates that you are scared prompting the AL when and when not to act, if you cannot see the possibilities you really are a blind *anboy.

Its cheap. The application is where the moneys at. And,Well I would expect Msft to incorporate in. . . .um,ok.. . . .Im not really sure.I just dont want this to start off like the (for the time)AWESOME Steel Battalion controller. Where it has so many possibilities,that go to waste in the end cuz just two games used it. Man. . .that made me want an xbox.. ,sad we didnt even get the 1st xbox here :(

lol someone getting nervous to bad the ps3 motion controll is going to be clone of the wii remote lol i don't sony is even going to show their motion controller because of MS.

He's part of a software program.

The concept as created by Lionhead is real.

The articles fanboyism is real with remarks like, "Naturally, nobody really expected everything that Milo was doing to be realtime and generated by a single Xbox 360."

My ability to enjoy this news without being affected by horrible attempts at journalism is also real.

I hope they implement this tech in RPGs.

Reminds me of an advanced version of Eliza, what worries me the way Eliza works is by generating text files what you enter in as text and it strings together words which are common to be together, in order to make it learn although it actually has no AI.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

Space is the factor here, if Milo is supplied on a disc, well, very little room for expansion except the HDD, so, with the more words and dialogue recorded and pictures scanned, the 360's HDD is going get full up, especially the 20GB.

So to me, Milo is pointless and not feasibly real, just something that 'reacts'. Taking the drawing amazed me though, but that's similar to something being incorporated to Eyepet.

just read a few comments and i cant help but lol. this new interaction with gaming is a step forward to changing how we game why not just give it a chance before you actually knock it.

Milo's interactions to some degree have to be guided and here is how you know. He is voice acted. He has a real person behind his voice which means he has lines recorded which means he had to have had a actor do those lines. Meaning he cannot freely answers questions he has not had already been voiced on the fly so if you so something he cannot respond to he will not respond back or he will say something that will make no sense.

Until a perfect voice synthesis program that can create a 100% human voice on the fly is created then a perfect 100% interactive AI will not really be AI because it's interaction with the person will be limited due to the commutation.

Milo: would you read me a bedtime story

gumgum99: no

Milo: why not?

gumgum99: because I'm not Bruce Willis!

I'm not saying this isn't real, but what I am saying is that it is nothing new, there have been a lot things able to recognize speech patterns. http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... this robot is able to recognize human low level speech patterns, and there is another one I can think but I can't seem to find a link to but I'll keep looking, but this robot was able to understand some basic human vocabulary and semi "understand" what you are talking about. Microsoft is not creating a new technology with this. I just hope you all know that.

They are however first to seem to want to make into a game . . . if they can pull it off.

Until someone gets their hands on the Milo themselves. I'd say i have no idea, not Impossible,but it will be limited. I mean this was done what....4 years ago? even more...8 years ago, with Dreamcasts fishman, and it worked pretty well (strangely enough)

Ms are js buuilding up on already existant tech. As they've always had, and twisting it beyond belief to make people buy them (Inspired by NINTENDOOO)

Until i see it working before me, Milo is a grey zone for me (and a freaky, pedo-like uninterestingly sad one might i add =/)

I'm sure some of it was cleaned up for the demo. Also, Peter has that way of stretching things sometimes so I wouldn't be surprised if it's not quite pat. However, that's far from faking the entire thing which I think is just insulting to the devs involved.

If it all turns out to be completely legit all these accusations will only serve as a testament to how much they've actually accomplished.

im pretty sure molyneux said they only had like a few weeks with it, give em a few years, that was pretty cool for a couple of weeks with brand new technology.

If milo works with natal how MS say it does then i think it would be cool to see it with oblivion.

Not at all convinced... milo could easily be faked... if it was so real why couldn't they have milo on stage live in front of people. Probably for the same reason they showed so much in that vid and then showed us a brickout clone and a crappy paint app.. it doesn't really work right. Maybe in a year it will be fine or maybe in a year attempts to integrate it into alan wake will make it a perfect excuse to delay alan wake for another year.
