better be kinect optional........

Otherwise its worthless

And I am pretty sure nothing was announced it was just a tech demo day or something. Read the article. Theres no mention of them saying they are developing a kinect title. Its just bits and pieces of news to make an assumption

tehpees35462d ago

where is captain obvious when you need him?

Raven_Nomad5462d ago

I think it would take someone like Peter to use his imagination and give us the Kinect game we deserve. I will be really excited to see how this pans out.

awiseman5462d ago

I am more pissed than excited, they need to be making good hardcore games that use a controller. I am fedup of Kinect srsly...

unless its Milo, I dont care. Of course they coud make "Joe" with the same tech that powers milo LOL

KRUSSIDULL5462d ago

I think Kinect is made for a game like Black & White.

mcstorm5462d ago

I have my fingers crossed for Black & White 3 what can be used by Kinect. Black and White 1 and 2 are some of the best games I have ever played.

Peter Molyneux recalls how Project Milo, the Kinect game with revolutionary promise, died a death

Vapourware can end up being the stuff of legend, like Rockstar's Agent, Star Wars 1313, or StarCraft: Ghost. Without ever seeing the light of day, these games never risked the possibility of being played and forgotten, and instead live on forever as the subjects of lengthy YouTube essays.

Still, Molyneux's most notable lost game (or tech demo, depending on who you asked at the time) was arguably Project Milo.

I can see the potential of the kinect hardware... its rather impressive tech, but it was just not meant to be for gaming. If anything, MS had a huge missed opportunity to have used it for the AR/VR projects.

S2Killinit341d ago

Missed opportunity? They lied. It was the biggest lie in gaming history.

merlox341d ago

You can use the Kinect as an SLS camera for paranormal investigations. So it wasn’t a complete failure.

Cacabunga341d ago (Edited 341d ago )

Remember Star Wars Kinect announcement? Biggest laughable acting seen

It was built on lies Peter...you know this.

isarai342d ago

Bro that thing NEVER existed, what we got was a concept video

Knushwood Butt342d ago

"Unfortunately, as we were developing Milo, so the Kinect device was being developed. And they realised that the device that Alex Kipman first showed off would cost $5,000 for consumers to buy.

"So they cost-reduced that device down to such a point, where the field-of-view...I think it was a minuscule field-of-view. In other words, it could only just see what's straight in front of you."

Hmm, exactly what tech was in it, that was cut, affected the development? It was only ever interpreting visual and audio inputs right? The xbox was processing those inputs.

Nor do I see how the field of view thing is relevant to the discussion.

isarai342d ago

Exactly! Tf kinda BS statement was that? i don't really see how fov is relevant at all, since when do you move all around a room while talking/interacting to someone?

Amplitude341d ago (Edited 341d ago )

This is entirely untrue. There was never a 5000 dollar Kinect prototype that could somehow use a wider field of view to scan and import generated in-game items and advance AI by over a decade. Anybody that fell for this was a stupid moron child, myself included. Anybody that falls for this lie now is a stupid moron child who doesn't realize that these people *only* know how to lie.
