Should Halo Anniversary feature Kinect support?

VGW: Gamers may have to withhold their judgement before speaking out against the idea until they see some footage. Some of us here at VGW were very excited by the Kinect features in games like Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier and other popular XBox action games shown at E3. However, this does somewhat go against 343′s own admission that they are devoted to keeping the feel of the original Halo largely the same. Will this throw a wrench in the feel of the original?

Worst part is... he has the gun backwards. :)
It will... back fire!!! :)

On topic: This kinect in everything has to stop. Some games dont need it!

NukaCola5452d ago

I don't see how Kinect could be used.

Just_The_Truth5452d ago

i'm guessing it'll be used like gunsmith and/or as a mini-game just something to make you feel like your missing out. I'm glad that Sony decided to not force move on developer because if they feel a need for it and have time for it, they use it and do it right and not grudgingly support it just so there's a Move sticker on the cover. That may not be the situation for MS devs but to say that every game is going to have kinect i'm sure some studio weren't happy.

If it allows us to fondle Cortanas data streams.

badjournalism5452d ago

It was announced at the press conference, of course it has Kinect features. They showed nothing that wasn't using Kinect in some way...if it didn't use Kinect,it was announced later at the show.

JellyJelly5452d ago

Is this article for real or just trolling? Maybe it's auto-generated? "Should *loop through upcoming 360 titles A-Z* feature Kinect Support?"

Baddo_Ekkusuchi5452d ago

Microsoft will no doubt incorporate kinect to every big title they can. whether its a gimmick or not ala mass effect 3, they dnt care as long as there is the kinect support.

I expect this to be announced pretty soon. Can't wait, this game was awesome. I wonder how of a remake it'll be though, hopefully not a remaster because we already have that lol.

S2Killinit220d ago

It needs to be a complete redo of graphics or else its not my cup of tea.

hennessey86220d ago

it will be running on unreal engine 5, so it will look good. The question is will it run as good as it looks

GenoPurpel220d ago

I think they teased it a few months back when they announced Halo studios. It does look quite incredible graphically but as Hennessy says above, how it runs is gonna be a different story given UE5 track record.

darthv72220d ago

it would probably be like the gears of war reloaded. Which was a remake of the remaster of the original.

...this gen is getting confusing with so many re-whatevers.

@S2K: “ It needs to be a complete redo of graphics or else it’s not my cup of tea.”
I completely agree with you and would add a VR mode as well🥺

oh yeh, theres like a showcase soon, maybe they'll announce it there.

or at the game awards

but ue5 only looks pretty. the games run ..
abit weird.

Notellin220d ago

It's being shown at the Halo World Championships which they had already announced a few weeks ago.

RaidenBlack220d ago (Edited 220d ago )

Better reboot than another re-touch (remake after an already remaster) .... but 343/Halo is incompetent now, so .... guess this is best they can do with help of Coalition

pwnmaster3000220d ago

So much memories with halo.
The original Xbox was my first console (actually 64 but barely played) and the first game was halo. Me and my brother use to play coop almost everyday.
We eventually traded in for a PS2 because of kingdom hearts lol

maximusprime_220d ago

I played the first 2 Halo games. That's Bungie's Halo.. I do not know whether 343's Halo is as good as Bungie's.

Either ways Halo is one of Microsoft's big franchises. So many rumours so it's becoming more likely it'll come to PS5

darthv72220d ago

Halo 3 is Bungie's game... so is Reach and ODST. 4, 5 & 6 (Infinite) are 343's. They aren't bad... just different. The original trilogy story ended and should have finished there. But MS wanted to 'Star Wars' this franchise and came up with new stories that sort of just sit there.

TheColbertinator220d ago

You haven't missed out much since Bungie left.

Halo CE Mod Adds a New Way to Play Co-Op in the Worst Way Imaginable

This Halo CE mod allows a new way to play co-op, but probably in the worst possible way.

spicelicka415d ago

This looks like cursed halo at its finest, love it. They need to bring mods to consoles.
