No Kinect support for Bioshock Infinite, but maybe something for future

From the article at 123kinect.com: Yes, I know that some of our readers don’t like it when we report this kind of “no Kinect support” news (as was very evident here), but we still get all kinds of question about whether games will get Kinect support or not, so it does serve a purpose. The fact that Bioshock Infinite will not get Kinect support was now officially confirmed in an interview so I thought a small news item was in order. More info in the full article.

Why Kinect support?

BK-2015553d ago

This site needs to be banned on N4g, all they do is add speculation about whether a game will use kinect or not.

Istran5553d ago

You need to be banned from n4g, all you do is generalize about whether a site adds speculation whether a game will use kinect or not.

But in all seriousness, 123kinect.com does not do this, if you go through the history of articles only a tiny fraction is about Kinect support for titles. And even then, I think the article is quite clear about Kinect support for Bioshock Infinite...it will not have Kinect support. Where is the speculation?

knowbody wants lame kinect support that would make any game worse

no support=great news

shadokid5553d ago

kinda true plus how would you walk back it wouldnt make sense cause there is a limit to how ar you can walk back.

showtimefolks5553d ago

still have my copy of bioshock i don't think i will ever sell/trade it its a classic

move support seems more likely but i would still play with my classic controller

shadokid5553d ago

There wouldnt be no point anyway you would probably get 1 pound or 50p das why i got halo 3 still lool

Bioshock would be horrible with kinect.

DigitalRaptor5553d ago (Edited 5553d ago )

Most core games would be horrible with Kinect.

That why its fanboys are talking about the unique experiences built from the ground up. That's why they try and bash on Playstation Move for having "tacked on controls" even when they work well.

Let's face it... these games still won't be any better than standard games with controller support, but hey, if they want some unique content to justify their purchase then why not...

And about BioShock - Ken Levine wouldn't downgrade his game for something as restricting as Kinect. The truly great developers ignore the gimmicks that offer no improvement or solid alternative.

Masterchef20075553d ago

I guess your right Kinect needs games in order to justify its purchase. Because it isnt cheap at all with a MSRP of 150€.

Anways for those who have it and enjoy it power to them.

But for those who defend it like crazy and want it to become a standard in the gamming industry. I would consider them gamers.

Top 10 Rarest Xbox 360 Games That Are Worth a Fortune

"And lastly, famous Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling helped to create the action-RPG’s setting. What’s really fascinating, though, is that the game was partially financed by taxpayers from Rhode Island (which allegedly lost the state millions of dollars). Yikes!"

1. Now infamous Schilling
2. No allegedly, it did. And they couldn't pay it back.
3. What really lost the money wasn't the SP release but the MMO they were working on. This was supposed to be an introduction into the MMO world.

I hate counting limited editions for these lists. I mean, they're made to be rare and expensive. It's far more interesting to hear about the NCAAs (even if most people know that one already) and the El Chavos than some massive hit that came with a $200 statue at retail.

gamerz1044d ago

Me too. Here's the best I can do:

El Chavo Kart $90.14
NCAA Football 14 $87.72
Spiderman: Edge of Time $75.94
Spiderman Web of Shadows $75.09
Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions $67.76

Christopher1043d ago

Wow, El Chavo Kart is not at all what I expected by the name. 100% looks like a Sackboy Kart game.

Soy1043d ago

It's so odd that so many Spider-Man games are seemingly given lower print runs, even if they're not the best games.

jznrpg1044d ago (Edited 1044d ago )

Most Xbox games don’t hold as much value compared to other systems. Kameo, Blue Dragon, Last Remnant , and a handful or 2 of other games that I kept.

sadraiden1044d ago

Fallout 3 and Bioshock Infinite are the rarest games of all time.

8 Best Games Set In A Multiverse

One of the biggest TV and movie tropes in the last decade has been the multiverse, the idea of exploring multiple dimensions to uncover alternate versions of existing ideas. From both a business and creative perspective, it makes sense why established franchises are shaking things up in this way.

However, there aren't many video games latching on to this trend, as rendering multiple worlds in real-time is a difficult feat and the medium is relatively young in comparison to its contemporaries, making crossover opportunities more difficult. Still, there are a few great titles that manage enough to overcome these challenges, and here are some of the best examples.

While I love someone mentioning Planescape, not really multiverse. Planes and dimensions, yes. But, they are typically their own locations and are very rarely tied to another 'verse' let alone another plane. The only things that are directly tied are the ethereal and material planes. Otherwise, they are dimensions created of their own design and goals by the creator/owner and not comprised of 'their own version of another dimension'.
