Mass Effect 3 'doesn't need Kinect for voice commands'

@XG247: Don Mattrick just dropped a miniature bombshell on what was seen as a 'Kinect Exclusive'.

XGN_Alex5466d ago

I was wondering why headsets weren't a viable option, turns out that's because they are.

-Alpha5466d ago

And even then most people just want to press a button. Who is honestly going to play a single player game reading the lines out loud to themselves?

It's pointlessly forced on.

maniacmayhem5466d ago

The same people who scream into their DS Phoenix Wright games.
If there's a kinect option for ME3 more power to it. At least there's an option for the people who actually bought it.

Skip_Bayless5466d ago

I like the feature. Obviously there will be more features annouced later on.

RedDead5466d ago

I will actually do it, it's quite quick in comparison too buttons I think. This is not limited to the 360 either

SilentNegotiator5466d ago

Good to hear. This means that the PS3 versions will have the "kinect" features also, right?

somerandomdude5466d ago (Edited 5466d ago )

Microsoft really wants developers using kinect features.

was funny is that ps did this with socom a long time ago

Tony P5466d ago

So it doesn't require Kinect exclusive hardware. There you go.

I think it's now only a matter of time until we discover you can use any old headset on any platform to take advantage of voice command. And because of that, the same feature will be in all versions of the game.

fluffydelusions5466d ago

I'd still rather just use a controller.

MariaHelFutura5466d ago

Honestly, I think it`ll be faster/more efficent to use a controller over saying the lines.

hetz155466d ago

plus yelling at your tv will make you look more idiotic.

Winkle925466d ago

I think immersion is what it's all about.

beast242tru5466d ago

lol lmao i mean they tried to make it seem like its new and fresh and inovative and onli posible on kinect lmfao

PS3ROCKS5466d ago

Yeah PS Move could do this

ginsunuva5466d ago

You meant PSeye, right? Of course you did. Now get lost.

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast531d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine531d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast531d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman531d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast531d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman531d ago

it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me

He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.
