Head tracking is nothing really, Even the PS move has a game with head tracking and it's definatly not kinect.

fr0sty5447d ago

2 games, actually. gt5 and the fight.

Bigpappy5446d ago

Here we go again. Because it was done before it will always be the exact same thing. So eyetoy is the same as kinect, move is the same as wii, 3D in the 70's is the same as 3D on LCD TV's.

Reading some of the junk arguments on this site really makes me want to poke my eyes out so I don't have to read it.

xX-StolenSoul-Xx5445d ago

yo... i never said PS EYE was anything like kinect. i know kinect is way better with their full body tracking. It's just head tracking always been and people make a big deal out of it. Trust me i know how advanced Kinect is and its uncomparable to the move im not a fanboy.. Besides i think Move n Kinect suck

Bodster5446d ago

Like kinect? Heading tracking in video games (Mainly PC) has been around for ages, why would anyone think it was kinect related?

dragonelite5446d ago

problem is this is light depending kinect isn't.
but the $100 price point isn't worth it for head tracking on pc only.

BlackKnight5446d ago

You know, even though I don't care for kinect, that is actually a good point. I always close the blinds anytime I game. I always want a theater experience when I play. Just mean, the TV, surround sound and game time.

I think this leaning thing is awesome as hell and have a 1080P webcam so that would work perfect, EXCEPT in my theater mode :(

BlackKnight5446d ago (Edited 5446d ago )

I think it is because we are in a new age of teenager gamers/ignorant gamers that have no idea about gaming beyond what they hear from the big companies PR:

MS: KINECT! XBL! CROSSGAME CHAT!
Sony: 3D! BLURAY! THE CELL!

While the typical aged gamer that actually gamed since the days of the first nintendo's and MS dos on computer knows that all that shit means nothing and its all been done way before.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_92376d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil375d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb375d ago (Edited 375d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

One of my biggest art heroes. His work and vision were truly one of a kind, and he’s been a huge inspiration to my own work. Such a heartbreaking loss.

Deeeeznuuuts457d ago

Remember seeing Dishonored for the first time when it released, fell in love with the art style straight away, so striking! And because of it, still holds up and will for years to come, RIP Viktor

JEECE457d ago

Yep I remember seeing some of the earliest concept art for Dishonored and hearing that the art director of Half-Life 2 was working on it and being excited.

And you are absolutely right, each of those games (HL2 and Dishonored) has a distinct art style that stands the test of time.

Relientk77457d ago

So sad to hear this. I absolutely love the Dishonored series and love the world and art style. It looks great and unique. I'm still hoping for a Dishonored 3

rokos457d ago

RIP Viktor love your work

Ethereal457d ago

Damn... Dishonored has such amazing art. RIP.
