EA: Kinect/Move FPS "hard to imagine"

Silver-haired EA overlord John Riccitiello finds it "really hard to imagine" a future where he's "hiding behind my couch, making a gun out of my finger" and shooting baddies in Call of Duty or Medal of Honor.

not sure who disagreed because we have killzone 3 coming out soon and that is a Move FPS

AndrewRyan5619d ago

You are right, it is coming out soon and supports move. But I have a feeling the controls will not be any good.

AKissFromDaddy5619d ago

@AndrewRyan
If the WiiMote can do it, Move controller has an opportunity too.

nix5619d ago

@andrew: MAG already supports it. so does RE5 [tps].

keep imagining EA.

Socom 4 - Move Gameplay:

The controls look rough, or at least would take a while to get used to... but either way it's not too hard to imagine.

Also -
MAG
Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition
Time Crisis: Razing Storm (not saying it's good, just that it exists)
Modern Combat: Domination (that newly announced PSN exclusive with the epic fail trailer)

uhhh.. supporting Move and Kinect is way different that a title that is a Move or Kinect FPS.

Played the MAG Move demo, did not like. Move is fine for other things, just not FPSs.

Frankly, I only enjoyed the "bounding box" method in a slower-paced shooter like Metroid Prime 3. I've never liked it in a reflex shooter.

dragonyght5619d ago

The trick with move in MAG you have tweak the setting to your own liking by default its a meh but once u find ur sweat spot its a fun exp

"EA: Kinect/Move FPS "hard to imagine"

EA: Kinect FPS "hard to imagine" Move FPS are here now and look to really add to the experience with greater precision, accuracy AND speed........there.....fixed.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

It is almost like EA is doing damage control FOR Kinect...because they cannot possibly be serious about Move not being a good idea for FPS when we have SEEN how perfect Move is for FPS.

What gives EA? Another blank check from MS? (just speculation)

As 2011 rolls on...we will see how limited Kinect is for gaming other than party games, dance games, and workout games...Nintendo and Sony KNEW this hence the rejection of the technology.

As 2011 rolls on...we will see just how versatile Move is for ANY gaming genre whether it be casual or hardcore or something in between.

Move with MAG 2.0

Socom4 with Move
http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Keep in mind the Socom4 Move demo is many months old now and judging from the improvements of MAG 2.0....we can expect near perfection of the final release of Socom4.

lol at the disagree for just stating facts....whatever helps you sleep with your Kinect fanboys.

Hedberg5619d ago

@ Dog Beliefs.... Great vids man....I currently play MAG and I am dying to play Socom 4 with the Move. Thnx for posting those links.

MsmackyM5619d ago

For True, I play M.A.G. exclusively with the Move. Admittedly it was though in the beginning, but once I found my settings, the fun never stops.
Sure there are M.A.G. vets with over 900hrs of play time with the DS3, and see no use for the Move. Then there are players like me who truly like what the Move has to offer, and make it their controller of choice for fps.
It's really sad to see a gaming head with no imagination, especially when there is clear evidence of FPS titles that support the Move. I'm sure If MOH had Move support it would have sold more, I for one would have bought it.
Oh well, who needs EA, bring it KZ3.

DontShoot-Me-Bro5619d ago

MAG already uses the MOVE, and it uses it very good.

xAlmostPro5619d ago

theres already MAG, and time crisis.. then killzone 3 and socom 4.. i dont see having to 'imagine' either..

hakis865619d ago

It's called Killzone 3, Riccitiello, and it's out next month FFS!
Reminds me, I have to pre-order it :)

I hope it works well with MOVE. Wonder how you'd control it with Kinect? Any suggestions?

jneul5619d ago (Edited 5619d ago )

lool they owned themselves thought dead space 2 was getting move controls, p.s move fps is already a reality

tudors5619d ago

@whateva yes your right but it's not totally controlled by motion control is it, to be honest though I have no problem with using peripherals or a mix of motion and control, but the reality is that Move does not have a full blown motion controlled FPS, I have not seen grenades being thrown, I have seen KZ3 using it for aiming and direction but it's a bolt on more than anything, I mean what's it actually like throwing with Move?

Do you know those videos that make yourself embarrassed? Yeah, that's one of them.

THC CELL5619d ago

kinect has no chance unless its on reels

Move has a good fps coming out Killzone 3
Played with MAG and works well

Kurt Russell5619d ago

Kinect has just as much chance, all it needs is a peripheral to compliment it.

Still, MOVE and Kinect shooters - me not want.

Bathyj5619d ago

Isnt peripheral another word for controller?

I thought I was the controller.

THC CELL5619d ago

No chance, And even if it did work with kinect you would be knacked after the first half hour. also the amount of space you need. Move is the best choice for shooters. i plat mag with the move.

riksweeney5619d ago

@Kurt Russell

It's only Jan 5 and you've already won the prize for the dumbest comment of the year!

Kurt Russell5619d ago (Edited 5619d ago )

I'm sure you're a real cancer cure yourself riksweeney...

As it stands Kinect is a bit pointless outside of family games, throw in a controller as well as all this "you are the controller" nonsense and you have something with potential.

You've jumped down my throat accusing me of being dumb when all I did was not butt fuck a particular console of choice... Instead made a fairly realistic observation.

I am out of bubbles, so feel free to dick about in this article spouting your nerd crap. I am out! xxx

Those aren't Move FPS. Those are PS3 FPS with tacked on Move controls. Modern Combat is a Move FPS.

matey5619d ago

the only device that does fps better than standard controls is Wiimote IR Metroid prime corruption 60 fps is mint,Conduit is mint, Goldeneye is mint,Black ops is mint publishers like sega no th wii has the superior fps controls and im sure they will tell the world when Conduit 2 is ready as it looks like the biggest sequel ever on any console Move has the ability but will only give u 30fps and abit of lag Kinect hasnt got a chance as u would have to imagine holding things and in real life u actually hold a gun so u need something in your hand Kinect ultra fails same with TW12 on Kinect wouldnt work

doG_beLIEfs5619d ago

"Move has the ability but will only give u 30fps and abit of lag"

I cannot beLIEve you would bring up a horsepower argument FOR the wii and AGAINST the PS3....lol man

Yeah....just look at the lag of Move with a FPS...../s

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

More lag /s

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

yep....Move is inferior to the wiimote..../s

jneul5619d ago (Edited 5619d ago )

for a start the eye is not 30fps it is 60fps and there already has been a technical site describing the lag and precision from each solution, oddly enough move came out on top in all categories

btk5619d ago

You know that the PS Eye can do 120fps? Oh... you are just trolling every Move article I see...

bebojet5619d ago

Killzone 3, MAG and Socom has Move support, FPS with Kinect is "really hard to imagine"

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!

The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result

isarai_lee87d ago

It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way

US Lawmakers Urge Review Of EA Sale

lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6

lodossrage121d ago (Edited 121d ago )

Wait,

The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.

NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.

thorstein121d ago

No. There were elections and some of the scum were replaced.

TheColbertinator121d ago

Different elections. Different scum. Same results.

rlow1121d ago

i know its a long shot, but i hope this gets shot down.

ZwVw121d ago

EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
