Deus Ex Human Revolution Using Kinect For Xbox 360 Version

Gaming Blend "...some rumors have some backbone to them and Deus Ex: Human Revolution using Kinect is one of those rumors. The latest director’s cut cinematic trailer reveals something very, very interesting that goes against what one of the producers said they wouldn’t be doing for the game."

i dont understand how it would work seeing as how this is a FPS..plus you would have your controller in your hands at all times

cyguration5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

Rumors circulated before about Halo using Kinect, and Gears 3 using Kinect in limited roles....such as throwing your arm to toss a grenade or putting up your hand to interact with consoles/keyboards/etc.

The game is a mixed third-person/first-person title so it's possible that Kinect could work if used correctly. Especially for some of the melee combat.

@Cevapi88: I wouldn't begin to understand how it works either but I'm sure Microsoft and Eidos have already worked something out. It could be something really infinitesimal, though, but who knows.

Cevapi885631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

well then the whole mantra that "you are the controller" wouldnt make sense with a game like Deus Ex 3

i wouldnt mind seeing it in a game such as this...i just want to know how Kinect would know when to start tracking you since this would happen somewhere mid-game...i dont think that it would be seamless since you would have to be scanned, you'd have to stand up, put the controller down and then start with the game again

im sure devs have been working on this...so me thinking that it would be this cumbersome is just my idea since we havent seen a game do this before

kaveti66165631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

"well then the whole mantra that "you are the controller" wouldnt make sense with a game like Deus Ex 3"

That's your main concern? If they manage to make a game that uses Kinect in some capacity but still has the standard controller for main gameplay, would your main concern be that it was false advertising?

This is a common point used against Kinect. And, not to insult you, but it's a pretty retarded, irrelevant thing to say. Why would anyone give a shit about the "mantra" if they can play the game and use kinect for some things? Would they complain? It's not a big deal, but I understand some people just want to find anything to criticize.

Edit: @below
"Everyone that cares about Deus Ex doesn't care about Kinect. Everyone that cares about Deus Ex doesn't care about the PSEye."

Do you see how your statement is illogical?

Biggest5631d ago

I don't see the allure of adding a camera to a controller based game. I hope they're intelligent enough to make the full game without Kinect in mind. Everyone that cares about Deus Ex doesn't care about Kinect. Everyone that cares about Deus Ex doesn't care about the PSEye. Don't change the game to accomodate the camera use.

ArmrdChaos5631d ago

Where in the statement did it say you would be forced to use any motion control? I am sure it would be an option for those who wish to try. The developers are not going to limit their user base by requiring kinect.

Cevapi885631d ago

lmao...you're gonna call the whole "Youre a controller" bit retarded but use the argument against me...its MS that came up with it not me...if its retarded then go after MS and their $500 million budget that kept driving that quote in every advertisement that they have put out

and im not criticizing, im just making a point...where in my comments did i go after Kinect calling it TEH LAG FEST, or a $150 eye toy rip off...calm down, i didnt mean to hurt your feelings

JokesOnYou5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

"i dont understand how it would work seeing as how this is a FPS"

-I don't know but maybe thats why you are just another random guy on the internet reading about kinect, instead of creating games for kinect, lol....but thats OK I'm just another random guy wondering what will be kinects first truly great game, I have some ideas but I don't know much about coding, etc and all the hardwork involved in the process to make a great game myself. So here we are just 2 random guys on the interenet with nothing to offer but our comments.

-lol, so they advertised "you are the controller" and if they make a great game that uses both a standard controller & kinect, absolutely nobody will care as long as its a good game(except of course fanboys, who once again are irrevelant anyway), advertising means very little, its just a hook, company's are allowed to be versatile and do MORE than they advertise right?

DaCajun5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

Wow seriously that is the basis for why they think Kinect will be used in the game Deus Ex: Revolution? Then they are bigger fanboy idiots than I thought. I guess the game Homefront and Two Worlds 2, will use Kinect also since it is at the end of it's trailer also mentions Kinect in the trademark legal blurb. I seriously doubt either of those games have Kinect being used in it.

I could find more if I look but why?

Obviously anyone with half a brain and not any kind of fanboy could see it was just a generic trademark disclosures for legal purposes covering all bases. Just the rabid fanboys are so blinded by the stupid imaginary console wars to even see it for what it is.

Please stop with the BS fanboy console war rumors trying to one up each other with BS like this and report real gaming news.

Cevapi885631d ago

can all of you be anymore oversensitive about a piece of technology...i didnt even bash the damn thing, just giving my opinion on how it might work and you go around and go after my imagination/intelligence

saying something thats even neutral can piss off people...my my my...sad day

Interesting. But I don`t see how it would work smoothly.

GenericUserName5631d ago

Fortunately developers aren't limited by your imagination

Christopher5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

Unfortunately, they are limited by technology. There's a lot of neat ideas being presented by some individuals, but combining Kinect processing with an already intensive game like Deus Ex? Not sure they'd focus so much on trying to make that work rather than adding elements that affect all users across all platforms.

Can definitely see Kinect being an alternative for use when doing mini-games. Wonder if Microsoft is packaging code for this sort of stuff, though, for fast implementation. They could create a wide selection of pre-defined code elements for some basic motion detection (think mini-games like from Mass Effect and Alpha Protocol).

aviator1895631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

It might just be used for subtle or small actions such as looking around the corner or kinect might just track your head movements and move the screen in the direction your eyes or your head might be moving.
If they do have this, I hope it's just an optional setting.

IronFistChinMi5631d ago

Well it has to be optional, seeing as not every 360 owner has Kinect.

I hope we get Minority Report style hacking in Deus Ex HR.That would convince me to get Kinect

BlackKnight5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

Thank you. Glad someone else thought this would be cool.

I have no real interest in kinect or move. But I DID think what would be cool is if kinect was used to hack or mess with computers in Deus Ex. Just put your controller on your lap once you select a computer or terminal in game, use your hands to do a hacking minigame, then change cameras, change turret settings, browse emails for passwords or information about a vent or something. That could be cool and immersive. And no worries about the lag issue since browsing isn't going to be bothered with some minor delay unlike gunfights.

Still will probably get it for PC though.

Stealth20k5631d ago

kinect is nothing but a waste of 150 dollars

ps3 the best version confirmed

BlmThug5631d ago

How Is PS3 Version Best, Please Explain

Ducky5631d ago

The one bubble is enough explanation.
>.>

BlmThug5631d ago

Actually PC Will Be Best Because Its Gonna Have Better Graphics, Custom Mods, More FPS, Dedicated Servers

Pandamobile5631d ago

It's a single player game, but...

DX11 graphics :3

cyguration5631d ago

Most games this generation have been ported to PC from the 360, and most DON'T support mods.

I wouldn't hold my breath after the epic fails of Saints Row 2, Stranglehold and GTA IV being hot messes on PC.

HINDERIZATION5631d ago

god i hate mods... i just don't like them D:

cb4g5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

Perfect platform for a game that is not dumbed down.

As for kinect, it's not going to happen, but, if the developers are going to mess around with motion controllers for a game like Deus Ex then they can get stuffed.

Deus Ex fans do not want this.

Well at least there won't be any foliage so ps3 version is safe from ridicule at the very least

Mista T5631d ago (Edited 5631d ago )

perhaps hacking computers in the game you can move the curser with your hand. thats about all i can think of. everything else would be unneccesary

just coming up with ideas here, Kinect is kinda lame though

The og deus ex is magical. Im also very exited about mass effect legendary edition from the gp. Its next on my playlist never played mass effect game before.

IamTylerDurden11101d ago (Edited 1101d ago )

Never played ME? It's imo the greatest trilogy of all-time and perhaps the best setting outside maybe Fallout. Play it. Great DLC as well. In 2 & 3 at least. Skip Andromeda. Also, Human Revolution was great as well even if OG fans claim otherwise.

shinoff21831101d ago

Mass effect 1 was great. I feel they dumbed down alot on the 2nd one and seemed more action like. Mass effect 1 the citadel was an explorable city. Far as I got in Mass effect 2 it was reduced to a location list no traveling through it. I disliked it alot(the citadel) part. I also feel they went more action oriented then rpg

just_looken1101d ago

It always makes me mad when you see something you have done in the first mass effect or dragon age can make something change in the 3rd because bioware make 6 games in what 8 years? that did this but today 0 games do this.

I wish we had trilogies today were we can share saves and have multiple endings/path's on all 3 because of choices from anyone of them.

Its so funny being the bad sheparad from one to 3 then the end having just you and joker ha ha yet everyone is like hey your a hero with a 90% casualty rate.

CBaoth1100d ago

Fallout can't hold Mass Effect's jockstrap. The one Fallout even in the ballpark is 3, and that's only because the DLC was extremely good. When Ken Rolston was in Bethesda's employment were they good. That's about it. They're now the world's greatest copy/paste developer out there. Bioware at their pinnacle was ten times better a studio than Todd's team. Go look up the games

IamTylerDurden11100d ago

Mass Effect is my favorite, followed by 2 and 3. Yes, ME2 was dumbed down but also refined in terms of polish and accessibility. ME2 had an awesome story, great DLC, and a solid cast. Mordin in particular. It's a great game. Even 3 which was the weakest was still solid imo despite the ending. If u love ME how do u not enjoy all 3?

Fallout is not a better game though FO3 was great. In terms of setting though Fallout is Mt Rushmore. The 50's post apoc setting was brbrilliant. I still put ME setting n lore above but FO is up there with setting.

Man play mass effect, best games ever

Miraak82 1101d ago

Xenogears is my fav sci fi rpg

closed_account1100d ago

Right? There's a serious lack of classics on this list.

The original 2 Star Oceans. Rogue Galaxy...

IamTylerDurden11100d ago

Rogue Galaxy never got that critical love. Beautiful PS2 game. Was it L5?

closed_account1099d ago

@IamTylerDurden1 Yep, Level5. Love their stuff. Dark Cloud 3 please...

Godmars2901101d ago

Why aren't there more? A Star Trek RPG for one. Or something with non humanoid aliens?

shinoff21831101d ago

Cause for some damn reason medieval is more popular ugghhh. I'd take some sci fi sh anyway over it. I've said time and time again I hope the elden guys are working on a sci fi type game.

Godmars2901101d ago (Edited 1101d ago )

Something non-post apocalypse or dystopian. Just world saving. Fighting bad guys while doing good and dealing with ethical/moral/psychological quandaries.

sadraiden1100d ago

The reason why fantasy RPGs, and Fantasy as a genre, are more popular than Sci-Fi, is because of the low technology/high magic tropes. If all of your problems can be solved with looking up the answer on a smartphone, well, there's just lower stakes than if a character has to have a sword fight, and climb the tower, and rescue the fair princess and recite the ancient incantation to seal the evil.

Obviously you can have universe ending stakes in Sci-Fi, but that requires abstract reasoning, and an ability to RP in a way that is progressive instead of regressive. Couple that with Sci-Fi games and media generally being faster paced, and you've got a genre that attracts a very specific demographic of gamers.

just_looken1101d ago

or go crazy and make a starship troopers rpg can you survive the bug fight?

The animated show was great showed what someone can do with the lore.

Fist4achin1100d ago

A Starship Troopers game as a real time strategy like the command and conquer series would be awesome.

just_looken1100d ago

@fist

We have that today but its a small team with a smal budget

Its not a major rts sadly but a start

jznrpg1101d ago

I really hope Naughty Dog is doing a Sci-Fi game. As a lover all most things RPG I would love to see Naughty Dog quality in an RPG.

porkChop1101d ago

They could do some really great stuff with sci-fi. The sense of grand adventure of Uncharted, but also with the stealth and crafting of The Last of Us. Different planets, creative alien races, collecting junk to craft repairs and upgrades for your ship and weapons, etc.

shinoff21831101d ago

Porkchop

Your getting me excited for something that doesn't exist. Damn

shinoff21831101d ago

He'll yea , hope we here something about that if they are. I'm not to worried about factions at all

just_looken1101d ago

If it was the old naughty dog i would want that the new naughty dog no thanks.

IamTylerDurden11100d ago (Edited 1100d ago )

TLOU2 is the finest game ND has made. U4 was fantastic. New ND is a more impressive ND. I don't rate Crash n Jak like i do Uncharted and TLOU. Even Uncharted 1 and 3 were not as well crafted as TLOU, TLOU2, U4 imo. Idc if ppl troll TLOU2, most ppl are clueless, that game was incredibly impressive.

TLOU2 combat, visuals, and acting were the best of the genre. I found the story deeper and more profound than most but it's subjective. The level design was excellent also. The score. Audio. Animation. It was a masterpiece to me. The rope physics, detail. TLOU2 deserved Elden Ring scores and ER deserved TLOU2 scores. If any game deserved 97 in recent years it's TLOU2. Best game i ever played and if ppl come with Abby bs i already know it's not worth it. Those who call TLOU2 trash are foolish. Just look at it running...

I'm sure R* knows the Nintendo Switch install base and probably dont really care to port over more R* games to the Nintendo Switch tho i gotta say playing GTA4 & RDR1 on the go on the Nintendo Switch would be dope

Knightofelemia1400d ago

I would buy Lollipop Chainsaw, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved, Splatter House, Brutal Legends, Dante's Inferno, and Dead Space for sure if they were ported to the Switch.

InklingGirl1400d ago

Same, great group of titles.
